That's probably film star Jayne Mansfield - who sadly died 1967 in a car crash.

Just beautiful - the rear end turned up on the Rover SD1 and most of the design on Citroens for the CX and GS.

Turnbulls of Charles Cross, Plymouth. I used it a few times when I was a uni student in Plymouth in the mid to late 90s. Demolished shortly after although the replacement still has the same shape outline. It was swallowed up as part of a Staples building.
