How the faces of car expos have changed?

These ladies celebrate the Jaguar E-Type V12 Roadster with these Union Jack dresses...years before Ginger Spice brought them to style.

This vintage Toyopet (better known today as Toyota) plays up its Japanese heritage with this geisha-dressed model.

Wouldn't you love to take these lovely ladies down to the south of France in your classic Pontiac Monte Carlo concept car?

Big car, big dress! The Pontiac Grand Ville was an automotive behemoth that would make Shaquille O'Neal look tiny.

White-wall tires, wire wheels, and T-tops are as quaint as models who were supposed to keep smiling but always remain silent at auto shows.

Chinese automakers have quickly learned how to play the car model game...with mixed results.

"Now achieving up to 10 miles per gallon!" We're not sure exactly what these models are revealing about Buick's fuel efficiency breakthroughs, but you've gotta love those shoulder pads.

Racing stripes are usually, but not exclusively, reserved for sports cars.
