Why did Hot Pants go extinct? They should have been timeless!

This link has been posted before. I think (although I'm not sure) this was the guy that had a site called &quot;Up In The Rear&quot;, showing cars that were jacked sky high in back (or all around), pretty girls from the 70's and 80's, etc. I see a lot of the same pics.

He closed his site down because he said he was tired of people stealing pictures and not giving him any credit. Ironically enough, he's stolen hundreds of pics from around the web, and doesn't give credit. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

No big deal, because as we know, once it's on the web, it's a free for all, whether it's a picture, music, video, or videogame.

I do have to disagree on something though. Most of the cars shown on his site do NOT bring back fond memories. This was the era of &quot;all show and no go&quot;, where paint jobs and chrome replaced performance, and everyone claimed they had a 12-second car (yet they had never been down the race track). Lots of chromed Holley carbs, velocity stacks, air shocks, and ladder bars.

I look back at this as nostalgia, but I don't wish for these days again. What I do miss from this era are morals and values, which have gone away in America since the 1990's. And it's nice to see girls that don't have tattoos and piercings, aren't swinging on a brass pole, and don't have lip and breast implants.

When you think about it, what our generation (baby boomers) did in the 70's, adding wheels, tires, paint jobs, exhaust) isn't very different than what kids did in the 2000's (or today) with imports, adding wheels, tires, exhaust, a giant rear wing and a Type R sticker.

And yes, back in the 70's there used to be a thing called rock and roll. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

And as I looked at this today, I have to ask, what the heck are these people doing? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Looks like they are using the greenhouse as a paint booth.

There's a few of my photos on there. There were some fast cars back then, but a lot were pretty tacky too. Some bizarre mods too!
