This is dangerous, my stock and trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you've got a job for me, George Valentine. Right, full detail. Standard Oil Company of California invites you to... Let George do it.

In just a moment, we'll begin tonight's adventure of George Valentine. Right now, let's talk about a spring tonic for that car of yours. Heavy-duty RPM motor oil. The oil that we said would double engine life between major overhauls due to lubrication.

Heavy Duty RPM was developed through a series of grueling laboratory and road tests, which even utilized atomic energy. Now here's added evidence of Heavy Duty RPM superiority. A cab company operating in the tough grind all cabs go through found Heavy Duty RPM actually reduced engine wear 71% more than doubling engine life.

So why take chances with your car when you can get the protection of Heavy Duty RPM motor oil at any independent chevron gas station or standard station where they say and mean we take better care of your car the greystone ghost another adventure of George Valentine who's there what is it I'll be right oh yeah it isn't you out there it can't be you're
