Title: Paul Bracq turns 79 today.
Post by: mdsalemi on December 13, 2012, 17:37:44

A happy birthday to our (certainly, mine) favorite automotive stylist,  ;) Paul Bracq.  Today, 13-December, he turns 79.  He enjoyed a lovely day in Bordeaux with his family, and a visit to the Automobile Club of South West France.  Happy and in great health, may he enjoy many more birthdays!

a BIIIIG thank you to Mr. Paul Bracq for our cars :D Happy Birthday!!! If my count is correct it means that Mr Bracq was 29 when he designed Pagoda, or given that the inception lasted some time (2 years if I remember well), he must have been 27 or so…. Difficult to believe that conservative Mercedes managers were so forward minded.


Bon Anniversaire, Maitre Bracq :D Nos meilleurs voeux vous accompagnent :)
