Cal Worthington
 
The last Cal Worthington dealership closed.

We got his ads in Phoenix in the 70s to lure folks from Tex Earnhardt who ran similar style ads.

So long, Spot.

We had moved to AZ in 1978 and Cal had his ads going. Pretty shortly afterwards he was run out of town. Seems there was something about clocking odometers or some such thing. I know, I know....hard to believe. :eek:....

Go see Cal
Go see Cal
Go see Cal

And here's my dog: Spot

Helluva thing to remember.
