  2. Other than sumpfin to fluff out the car, no clue who the lady is. Car looks to some English inspiration for 1978 or so Cheby El Monte Carlo.

  3. This is from back in the day when Paris was a city worth visiting. Now it's become a 3rd world s&*(hole, thanks to liberal immigration policies

  4. It is a Delahaye Type 175 bodied by Figoni et Falaschi.

    This 1946/47 Figoni et Falaschi build was constructed on the first 175 chassis Delahaye produced.

    Picture was used on the cover of "Life" magazine and at least one book about Delahaye cars.

    Model is uncredited, but her dress is designer Jacques Fath’s creation.

    Photographer credited is Tony Linck
