Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's

I love the lines of the Vega. Just a little "too" much street freak for me on this one. Never seen one T-topped before?

Funny, I never liked seeing cars that extreme at shows in the 70s or 80s, but now, I think they're cool. Probably wouldn't build one myself, but it's definitely a style of a bygone era. Nostalgia I guess. It's just funny how I can like something now that I didn't care for before :glasses7:

Some of the mid 70s fads WERE kinda weird. I think it was all the disco stuff & the "new" restrictions on cars back then. We were all trying things out. It seems some of these fads were regional. I know what was popular in the Northeast. What were some local fads others got caught in?

They have a few different videos posted from cameras mounted on the different cars. I think its pretty awesome these guys had the balls to drive these legendary drag cars on the street!!! :cheers:
