This
package contained information and a short video that was used to train the dealer
salesmen about the finer points of the VR. They were supposed to review the
information and munch the popcorn while viewing the video. You must remember,
if you can, that microwave popcorn was a new thing in 1988! They could then
give "tickets" away to customers who were interested in purchasing
a VR to see the same video. After viewing the video, the customer and the salesman
could then pick out a $25 dollar item from the VR apparel catalog. One for the
customer, and one for the salesman, if he completed the deal for the car. The
video and paperwork for the apparel and ordering info for the car was sent to
Chevrolet dealerships for the 1988 model year in a package. Below are scans
and photos of one of the surviving packages and its contents, along with the
links to the video. These items have never been seen before by the general public.
Watch
the video!
