Beaumont in BFG commercial!

Anyone else seen it? It's a bright red '68-69 style (I'm not an expert on theese...). I saw the commercial on TSN last night. You can clearly see the tailights and the front grille with "Beaumont " emblem.

If the tail light has a space between the two lenses it and the backup lights are in the bumper it is a '68.

It the tail light looks like one lense with narrow chrome bars on it and backup lights are located right beside the tail light than it is '69

Just emailed a friend from TSN. I'll see if I can find out more about it as I work in commercials.

Tell me more about it if you can?

It was on during Off the Record.
It's a typical performance tire commercial, car is in a wharehouse setting and different camera angles of the car showing the rear tailight (where I first went, Hey, it's a Beaumont!) and near the end the car moves closer and you see a close up of the grille with "Beaumont" clearly visable.

There is no doubt it is a Beaumont. Saw it today while watching the Flyers - Capitals. It is a red with black vinyl top 69. Lots of fast moving frames so no real good look at the car. The engine shot is so quick hard to tell what it is. Car does a massive burnout and smoke show and the spot ends with a half frame shot of the grille when BEAUMONT is visible, Grille looks very similar to a 1967 PONTIAC GTO in that half frame shot I noticed.
