Default Bonneville TV commercial?

A friend of mine recently gave us a crap load of old tapes recorded off of tv <commercials and all>. digging through these <im about 1/3 - 1/2 way through>, i have only found 4 from gm <1 1988 Grand Am, 1 1993 Grand Am, 2 93 olds 98'*> and was wondering if they actually did any for the bonnevilles? anybody seen one by chance?

I have never in my existance seen one on TV. My Dad has HUNDREDS of tapes in the basement with Bonanza episodes taped on them from the late 80'*...maybe I should go through them and look.

The last one I remember seeing was several years back - their questionable "luxury with attitude" ads.
