Waxing Nostalgic

I'm guessing that threads like this aren't new to the Forum, but what the heck, I thought I'd throw one in the ring. I was running the Word Games & thought of Datsuns, the cars in the 70's that I think were Nissan before Nissan - remember them? So.... our teens...... what stands out in your minds? 

I hit teendom - junior high & high school - the last half of the 70's.

Junior High & my first half of high school I was kind of in that last, leftover remnants of the hippy phase. I was into hip huggers, bell bottoms, midriffs.

Then my junior & senior years of high school I straightened up in more ways than one. The way that showed in my clothes is that it was all about straight-legged Levi's, pinpoint, button-down Oxfords & Bass loafers. Wow! I went from hippy to preppy in one summer it seems!

How's this for a throwback to the 70's?!!!!? The B-210 wasn't the only "ugly" car of the decade....

...and there was....

No mater how ugly the B210 on the outside, had a friend who owned one and I have some fond memories of time spent in that car.

Hey, who said the B-210 was ugly?? I thought it was pretty cool at the time.

Here was my beloved first car (after the REALLY ugly parents' hand-me-down '72 Mustard colored Plymouth Satellite! ;-p)
1979 Chevy Monza. I loved this car! Mine was midnight blue, looked just like this one.

The Mustang II was a pretty ugly car. Didn't really qualify as a MUSTANG in my opinion. More like an over glorified Pinto. Speaking of which, the Ford Pinto was an ugly car, too!!!

I think I had that same shirt on the left.

Did Levi's really make those pants??? If they did , that is disturbing...and annoying.

[d's girl]

Okay, seriously, dude, those pants were never really in style.

My mother got me one of these when I was 3 yrs old. I believe she still has him tucked away in a trunk somewhere containing all of mine and my brothers' childhood toys.
