Those pics were taken before the show opened. All the manufacturers used them for brochures, thats why no one is in the pic. If you can find pics from other manufacturers you can see jeep vehicles in the background.

You can't beat the mid to late '70s era of Jeep, theres just nothing better, Jeep was at its peak under AMC ownership and the vehicles they rolled out were just flat out cool, if only there was no such thing as smog equipment.
