The only vehicles I saw painted like that in the 70's were vans.

Cragers are cool, but not on that car.

The 70's were wild times. Lots of psychedelics. Hippy chicks with huge bushes. Leaded gasoline. Classic rock.

Not a big fan of the 70's cars with a very few exceptions, by mid-decade muscle cars got bigger, uglier, had more beta male amenities and less performant. Asinine paint schemes not withstanding.
There will never be another era like the 60's... My 1975 LeMans-GT - affectionately known as "The Battlestar"... Rebuilt the old Quadrajet more times than I can count and it had plugged mixture screws and "fixed" linkage to hit emission requirements. I had to get very creative to get it to be less of a pig on the move. Passed off to my Mom and then my mechanic brother. He still has the car and has turned into a ground-pounding beast... Now if somebody offered me a '72 Barracuda Hemi convertible... |
