1974 CS At the Auto Show....

[m73]

There is nothing like seeing a brand new coupe at the auto show....

The women leaning on the hood is Valerie Leon and..... 'I believe I will allow that' (I have been waiting for so many years to say that phrase on a forum)

Can anyone id the blue colored coupe in the background? The other seems to be granatrot.

Muira always looks good so I have included a pic of that as well....nothing like these cars showroom new...

Taken in England as these have vinyl roofs? Those were the days!

If that woman had no rings, bracelets on, I'd let her lean on the car.

Correct, this is at the London auto show circa 1974....vinyl roofs as standard.

Just look at those Michelin sticker tires...wonder how much Coker would charge for each today? (probably something wild like $1K each)

Anyway all this reminds me a little of Matt Monroe on days like these.....

She looks like Plenty. Plenty O'Toole. Named after her father perhaps.

Although that was Lana Wood. Carry on...

Now have to google Plenty O'Toole. The International Court of Justice should announce an edict that movie stars, "celebrities", former Olympians, and any Kardashian or anyone related to one in any way is, "Forbidden from naming their children. That will be left to a committee of normal people who have named at least three children with common names."

Google "celebrity children's names" and you will be appalled.

Yes, I know, a tenuous connection to cars and coupes.

I'll take the Miura... it's aged very well by comparison.
