Milton Bradley made lots of games that were tie-ins with television shows and movies, but so far as I know, this was their only tie-in with a car company. It's a fairly straightforward game, using sticks with magnets to grab and pull plastic markers (with metal tabs) through the rough demands that every Chrysler was required to endure before being displayed in showrooms across the country. Each marker is a generic finned Chrysler product, cast in different colored plastic, but we'll forgive them for going to the trouble of featuring those swell drawings of Plymouth, Dodge, DeSoto and Chrysler next to each one. Because only four could play, Imperial was omitted but it was included as part of the board art.




The large game board is a large, thick, plastic coated paper which somehow over the last fifty-four years has remained completely intact. Note the three dimensional paper cutouts.

This keen comic book was included, which was doubtlessly also a dealer giveaway since the game is advertised in the center spread.
