. . . how many of you realize that it was an in-joke? Norton, in his "diagnosis" of the broken vacuum cleaner, was making a reference to a feature in Buick vehicles produced between c.1949 and 1963 - and Buick, remember, was the sponsor of the "Classic 39" season.

A description in one ad (for the 1956 Buick Wagon Estate model) of this "Dynaflow" system is as follows:
It offers the newest version of Buick's exclusive Variable Pitch Dynaflow Drive and all other basic features that make these '56 beauties the best Buicks yet.
And so now you know . . .

Yes, and when I got a hold (years ago) of C-39's w/o.c., I heard that reference from Jack Lescoulie while doing the commercial. That's when it hit me and I actually laughed realizing we were being "put-on" by the line from Norton.
