1964 Grand Prix (not two-tone, just Kauf-Fitz trying to reflect surroundinds on a shiny, dark car)

1971 Imperial

Aside: Chrysler did this style a lot '69-71 - I don't recall the techical term - where the ads look like stylized photos to resemble illustrations.

THe house behind the Imp is a photo. The cars are stylized "photos", again NOT the correct technical term.

1969 Newps .. another example of #968 ad copy style. "Photo-Illustration" style. I have been leaving these out . I dont think they are really illustrations by an artists' hands.

I also think there's a color version of this ad. I collect the Pontiac ads by AF/VK and think I have a color one in my collection at home.
Yes .. I thought I had seen one a bit ago...but I was using my phone to pick out things to post when I got home. That was best one I found.

I believe car is "black", maybe "gunmetal", and the guys used a "noir" motif for their illustration. Here's another (weak - woman's dress is pink, guy's pants are blue-grey, tho that doesnt show up well) color version.

I'll also try to find a color version of this and post it IF I find one!
 
I found one on ebay that has some color that I've attached. Not a lot of color, but the Pontiac arrowhead logo on the front of the car is clearly red.
