[[image - Pontiac logo]] Wouldn't you know Pontiac would go ahead and turn something great into something greater. We call it Grand Prix. A completely new Grand Prix. So new in fact, other cars will be left far behind. They'll be old hat before they hit the pavement. Take a look. It's based on a handy 118-inch wheelbase. The interior looks like you'd have to wear captain's wings to slide behind the wheel. And it features a number of bright, new nifties. Like a radio antenna that hides in the windshield glass. Life (if you

order one) a built-in rear window defogger. And a steering wheel with new "soft" material rim. And just to remind you that Wide-Tracking is still the driving man's way to go, you can specify a new 428-cubic-inch V-8, a new, 3-speed Turbo Hydra-matic and Rally II wheels. Grand Prix. Why not put one between you and a road today? At your Pontiac dealer. (If you've got to wait your turn at the wheel, take a look at our other great Wide-Tracks for '69-Bonnevilles, Executives, Catalinas, Tempests, LeMans, GTOs, Firebirds.)

"a fun couple" that happens to be my least favorite expression). Also, if this year is like last, the same stores will again have those cheesecloth mink coats at $498.75. These, the saddest bits of pretentiousness I've ever seen - they were trying so hard to look Wealthy and Status, but not to fade or fall apart before someone took them home. Phooey on cut-rate opulence.
At Ben Kahn, a furmonger noted for his ways with pelts in the $5,000 to $35,000 range, I saw a dozen little semiprecious gems altogether to my taste and price. Auch chic. Snap. Verve. And, yes: such finicking perfection in the making and finishing. Even the lining matters, don't you agree? A crummy one can make you feel ditto.
There's one side-opened zebra coat cut to a sharp flare from a mandarin-collared skinny, skinny top. A zebra's coat is never bashful, not even when he's wearing it himself. And in this coat the markings have been worked to make it even more of a standout. It is genuine designing. About $1,000, shown.
There is a groovy, though less eye-rivetting, double-brested shaped coat with low-down revers. This is in African gazelle, a bright brown fur that looks crisply short-haired but oddly enough has a kind of long-haired texture. Like the zebra, it could be great over almost anything including, probably, the pants that Yves Saint Laurent keeps telling us city hicks are required wear for daytime. The gazelle is $600, shown.
Another non-Ford bright brown fur, mountain lion, makes a nifty trench coat, back flap and all, with a chunky gold lion's head clasping the black leather belt, $1250...There's a double-breasted skunk coat with the skunk's board white stripes reworked into thin horizontal lines, $650...French calf is marked like a tiger, $850. And lots more.
Of course, this year, there'd have to be he-and-she vests, some in French calf with
