Musings on ‘70s styling goodness

But trucks being the bright spot of the 70's? The 70's gave us the Alfa Romeo Montreal, Aston Martin Vantage, Mazda RX-7, Chevy C3 Corvette, Lancia Stratos, Maserati Bora, BMW M1, and the freaking Lamborghini Countach! Yes, the Malaise Era was not great, but the 70's produced some truly gorgeous vehicles.

And don't get me started on the 70's clothing! My bell bottom diapers were radical!

Yellow and black, but not with painted wheels. Chrome, or even (ugh, I can't believe I'm saying this) black powder coat would be better. If you stick with factory bumpers, go with chrome.

Here’s my late night spray bomb rendition... I still need Power Wagon decals though.

Desperately needs new tires though, I think the ones on them came with the wheels...

It needs one of those chrome bed roll over bar things with some KC Daylighters on it.

Sooooo badly! I have the KC Daylighters (thanks @spaggyroe) but I need a bar.

I think you should do something more like "brown sugar"

If it were a short bed 4wd, I could get on board, but not a belly dragger. 😂

On the plus side, you won't need camper steps. Just roll up, drop the bags, and walk on in.

Aaahh, the old "homeless but classy" motif.
Always a hit in CA.

That motorhome is equally as awesome as it is impractical. If I were to ever come upon a large sum of money, that is precisely the kind of useless awesomeness I'd be spending it on. it's probably better than I'm poor.
