First staged in 1901, the Chicago Auto Show is the largest auto show in North America and has been held more times than any other auto exposition on the continent. This year marks the 117th edition of the Chicago Auto Show.

On display at the 1979 Chicago Auto Show was a factory-customized version of the 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix. A convertible landau soft-top was over the rear compartment, and T-top roof above the front seats. The folding fabric top replaced the rear quarter of the roof, and stored under the hatch cover. When the tops were off and lowered, the B-pillar formed a targa-like hoop over the rear seating area. Painted in two-tone deep red and rose tinted silver the exterior was complemented by the special cockpit and after-market deep-dish wire wheels.
