I have a 73 fast back, and am thinking of 'doing her up' as it would have been done had i lived in the 70's... does anyone have any ideas on what i could do to achieve this look... she is already a yellow/mustard color...
Thanks 🙂
Just leave it standard...can't get more 70's than that!!!!

i was thinking of lining back deck in fur.. and making throwovers for front seats of same fur... and i went to clark rubber the other day, and saw this pastelly ladybird print vinyl. thought i might line the door trims in that.... already got loads of flowers in her.

Haha, it'll look awesome! Be sure to put pics up when you do anything! 😉
fit those little fluffy ball things that hang from the edge of the hood lining - for the '70's taxi look! Would suit leopard skin seat covers and plush pink dash mat - shit what am i saying:duh
:alien
Se if you can hunt out a sun visor and a door shield too. You could do the Sprintstars, but if you're after a more Aussie 70's look, hunt out some Cheviot or some kidney style 14 inch rims. Fit as much rubber as you can under the guards.
This thread needs some pics for inspiration!
70's would also have a raked stance - Oh and a fox tail on the aerial!! hehe
:alien
lol fox tail!!!
heading to spotlight after work tomorrow to check out fur... not sure what color i'm gonna have the car! was thinking of pink.. butnot too sure... going to make some cushions for hte back seat with fur as well... 🙂
😵
gonna start hunting out the visor, door shield, and sprintstars... 🙂
mmmmm Bathurst V8 type 3 had to revisit.
I think these are the best kind of 70s paint jobs:
that is sooo cute!!!! 🙂
Can I have one like the picture...................PLEASE??????????????

no, no it's mine it's mine!!!! 😁 😁 😁 😁
Not this crazy with the colours (and obviously not a bug), but I think this would be the perfect throw-back to the 70s. Not the cliches that are supported afterwards by Austin Powers, the actual dubs that were around then. Behold... The Inch Pincher Too

that is awesome!!! what a great idea!!! 🙂
so many ideas... overload!!!! lol
My 19 month old daughter just saw the picture of the Inch Pincher Too and went mental. Looks like I have to build her a chop top beetle with BRMs now 🥲
Now all I have to do is figure out how to tell her mother.😏
dont forget the disco ball hanging from interior light & in tapedeck grease soundtrack
😉
Those shots make me think of the Partridge Family bus
