00:30 This is a story of Susie.

00:33 She was a beautiful newcore, and she sat in a big auto showroom all day long flirting with the people passing by.

00:42 [Music]

00:46 One day, a flashing grill caught the eye of a neat little man in a brown suit.

00:52 When he saw Susie, it was love at first sight.

00:57 [Music]

01:00 Isn't she a beauty? Why, she's the sweetest little car money can buy.

01:05 I know you'll be happy with her. Now if you'll just sign here, my friend, she's all yours.

01:11 Yeah, it was as simple as that, and Susie was sold.

01:15 Susie was a happy little car, she glided down the avenue.

01:19 [Music]

01:32 The minute she stepped out on the main drag, Susie found herself in pretty fast company.

01:39 [Music]

01:48 But then she had a lot of pep and pick up, and she soon learned her way around.

01:54 [Music]

01:58 Susie loved the parking lot society, where she could rub fenders with the best of them.

02:04 [Music]

02:06 She met all the big wheels, big cabs, dignified limousines.

02:11 [Music]

02:13 It was a great place to make new contacts.

02:15 [Door slams]

02:16 Oop, sorry.

02:18 [Door slams]

02:19 [Music]

02:31 [Door slams]

02:32 But at the end of the day, it felt mighty good to be home in her own cozy little garage,

02:39 where she could just relax and let her tires cool off.

02:46 [Music]

02:48 But as the years passed, Susie's mileage rolled up and she began to show her age.

02:55 [Music]

03:02 Her color was fading and she developed carburetor trouble.

03:07 [Music]

03:11 And she was losing some of her old pep and pick up too.

03:15 [Music]

03:19 Hey, get this stall in.

03:21 Get moving.

03:22 [Music]

03:33 Susie was all run down and long overdue for a checkup.

03:37 [Music]

03:45 [Coughing]

03:48 Well, I'm afraid she's in pretty bad shape, mister.

03:51 Fact is, she needs a complete overhaul.

03:54 No, no, what I need is a new car.

03:58 [Music]

04:02 Come in and see maniac Martin.

04:04 [Laughter]

04:06 We're not selling them, folks.

04:08 We're giving them away.

04:09 [Laughter]

04:11 We know we're crazy, but look at the...

04:14 What was to become of Susie?

04:16 Who would want a worn out old coop?

04:19 [Music]

04:46 Hey, Mac, I'll take this here old blue club.

04:51 Now it was back streets and dark alleys.

04:55 Susie was on skid row.

04:58 Susie was left out in the cold.

05:01 [Music]

05:05 Abused, neglected, she soon lost all her self-respect.

05:10 [Music]

05:22 And it was plain to see that she was getting out of line.

05:26 [Music]

05:31 One dark night, as she sat all by herself on a lonely street,

05:37 a stranger stepped out of the shadow.

05:41 Her oil ran cold.

05:43 [Music]

05:52 Susie was a stolen car.

05:54 [Siren]

05:56 Calling car 47.

05:58 Watch for stolen car.

06:00 Small blue coop.

06:02 License number A72.

06:04 [Music]

06:33 [Train]

06:35 [Music]

06:44 [Scream]

06:46 [Music]

06:54 At last the end had come.

06:57 She was a battered old wreck and they dragged her away to the junkyard.

07:03 Susie had come to the end of her road.

07:07 [Music]

07:24 Hey mister, what do you want for this old blue heap here?

07:28 Uh, say about $15.

07:30 Aw gee whiz, I've only got $12.50.

07:35 Well, take her away son, she's all yours.

07:40 They stripped her fenders, chopped her top, shackled her down and hopped her up.

07:45 [Train]

07:47 She felt 50,000 miles younger.

07:50 [Train]

07:54 It was a miracle, that's what it was.

07:58 And it couldn't have happened to a nicer little car.
