Hood emblem.

But she's lovely.

James,

Good catch, you did 50% of the list
there is also one more thing

Over riders? Mind you it took a while to find the car. I have to say Stan I always look forward to seeing what you have posted for this thread. I don't know where you get the pictures but they are always a treat.

The whole front bumper seems wrong? On the car I mean.

Brian in NL · « **Reply #79 on:** February 09, 2014, 23:12:10 »

I agree the bumper seems odd, and the license plate is either not an actual California plate or has been photoshopped onto the car. The shape is wrong ... it is too horizontal.

The plate is not a stock CA plate for sure. Also the hood bulge looks weird in the 2nd photo. Seeing all the lovely ladies spread out all over those nice soft aluminum surfaces sure makes one ponder if the car's owners were around when these photoshoots occurred.

Jordan, Stan would have an easier time finding good shots if our car was an American made

then none of us want's that of course. Then who cares about the cars when 75 ladies like this embrace the car ... there is one photo that might pass as a Pagoda ... where the lady can be found in the trunk ... might she be searcing for rust? BTW I've been ordering from the web and insist on UPS delivery in the hope the lady as seen in one of the photos might be assigned to our route ... naturally no such luck ... all I get is some grumpy fellow that asks me ... "Sign here"

This way to 75 of the best as they claim ... ----> http://bangshift.com/gallery/75-best-photos-of-girls-with-cars-gallery.html

Ever notice no Mercedes in those pictures ... here and then a VW or a BMW, no Mercedes what a shame.

To all keen watchers:
Yes, the second flaw was the entire bumper. I did not mean the plate, as in many states you can choose to affix or not what you want (or almost... I think that affixing your mother in law is mostly prohibited)

Jordan
Thanks. But humbly, I am one of many contributors here and am sure that files in several computers are full of interesting shots. In any case, stay tuned. I still have some left

The exclusive side of this post as well as the difficulty consist in finding the Pictures where after detailed and painful examination some Mercedes car can be discovered. But why don't you start the thread in Other Cars category?

BTW. I think that we would contribute better if one day, instead of reproducing pictures of other photographers, we would post some artwork of the kind taken by ourselves (please notice I didn't say: pictures showing ourselves

)

Wow,

This thread is one for the ages.

Rolf-Dieter, I liked your 75 best link. I especially liked the Woodies.

Nah Stan, you are doing a great job, let's leave it at that ...

Especially for you some vintage souvenirs

Maybe other Members have better pics of that or even original copies?

the first one is an ad from Playboy early 1970

the second is the cover from June 1960

Flyair · « **Reply #86 on:** February 15, 2014, 15:52:13 »

since the thread became a bit sleepy, the pic is in the same mood

jpinet · « **Reply #87 on:** February 15, 2014, 21:02:21 »

This photo was taken by elmer Batters, and on the seats backrest is hand written all in caps first line: TO BENEDICT second line: BEST REGARDS and is signed E Batters

I have it on the inside double page and on the back cover of a book by TASCHEN, titled in french 1000 dessous histoire de la lingerie (1000 undies; the story of lingerie) ISBN, for those interested is:978-3-8365-0507-9

Book came out in 2010, so should be available through your local bookstore.

The photo is taken in a automatic 230Sl, with what seems to be a total of 402 km. on the speedo.

Something strange is happening in the photo, as the transmission stick seems to have disappeared and there seems to be two ashtrays one in front of the other.

Besides that photo, the whole book is interesting!

Best regards,
JP

Not sure if this counts but I have two poster size copies of that ad. The one in the attached photo is not in the best of shape and is up on a wall in my garage but the other is still rolled in a cardboard tube and like new. Sure wish I grabbed a few more of those back in '70:-).

Cees Klumper · « **Reply #89 on:** February 16, 2014, 06:56:05 »

I have an original one of those ads. Beautiful colors.

Flyair · « **Reply #90 on:** February 16, 2014, 10:41:12 »

John and Cees,
you are diverting the thread from its original focus... In my opinion you should now compensate for your ill-purposed acts by contributing at least one pic each of the kind that was originally requested

Cees Klumper · « **Reply #91 on:** February 16, 2014, 20:04:09 »

Yes Stan, you're absolutely correct. This weekend, when we're at the house in France where the Pagoda is, I will take a picture of my wife + the car ...

Flyair · « **Reply #92 on:** February 17, 2014, 13:46:54 »

Cees,
very brave idea, especially if you tell your wife where you plan to post the picture

Having said that, please pass my regards to your better half...

Cees Klumper · « **Reply #93 on:** February 17, 2014, 17:36:23 »

I did tell her, and showed her the thread. She's really looking forward to it.

Flyair · « **Reply #94 on:** February 17, 2014, 18:02:55 »

OK,
Cees... you create a momentum....

Meantime, let me show that Pagodas look good even if some unscrupulous lady is turning her bare behind in their direction...

This add is a fake one, but... do I really care?

Brian,
All you have in mind is the car, I suppose?

jameshoward · « **Reply #99 on:** February 19, 2014, 17:06:03 »

Brilliant.

And as for "pre owed," it may make more sense than you think....
