looking for pics of 70's street freaks!!!

...Where's Chili Phil?


This one is my favorite. I think it's perfect in stance, execution, and concept. Hot rods should be fun.

 

"Street is Neat"

 

this is my favorite straight axle car of all time.I still have the issue of Pop Hotrodding with it on the cover.where is it today??

 

I took a pic of this car at the 1979 Car Craft Street Machine National's. Last I saw it. Peter Pan of Chicago was a big fan of it, he may have a clue of it's whereabout's.

 

the koolest g***er/wheelie popper (street legal) in Arizona...........

 

Hey!

That's my Cousin Gary's Car!

 

Quit lyin'!

I like the "windsheild" in the firewall.

 

Some are drag cars, but the look like street freaks

 

I have the original front wheels off that car, bought them from the builder a few years ago. This is the only picture I have of the car which Mike (Lost Angel) provided to me, I seen the car rebuilt a few years ago and it was dark green in the Buffalo area.

 

Damn Alex how many of those Capri s have you got???

 

Well...

You know...

Your building one, and then you buy a Partscar, but you still need some Parts.
So you buy another Parts car.
But that one is too nice to Part out, so you turn it into another Project, etc...

 

Rod and Kulture featured a few in past issues, all from the Radir Wheels crew. The car club is Dead Man's Curve from New Jersey.

At least something happened with it, too bad it wasn't rebuilt as it was. I was really pissed at myself for missing out on that car. Everyone I know into cars seems to recall Walking Tall but they all think it was a 55, time seems to do that to memory.

 

I put this 48 together in 68/69. There weren't too many cars running around with straight axles that were driving on the street..............but it wasn't jacked up too much..........just
the way I like it.
Sure wish I had her back today!!!!!!!!!!

 

I saw this a few years ago and the first thing I thought of was the Street Freaks cars of the late 70's...

 

Another one...

 

Now this thing is just BAD*** !!!

 

I've asked this before,but does anyone remember,a Hemi powered 49 Plymouth,that sat about as high as that Belvedere,that was in "Street Machine"mag (probably about 74-78,B/W feature)

 

Was it orange? If it was it ran at Mooneyes last year.

 

Is this it?

 

The high and mighty? i saw and heard this thing or a clone of it running at the woodward dream cruise a few years back...its wild.

 

I thought maybe he was talking about that one,but didn't have any pic's of it.

 

That car was not a 1970's street freak though. That was THE ORIGINAL g***er that started it all, Built in 59'.

yeah I do..dark in the photos,had a chopped top...that one,if so I got the mag somewhere out in the shop......

 

I heart street freaks.

 

I'm from a small rural town of 500 people. I saw this car in 1977 at age 15 at an ISCA indoor show. It was the first real high quality car I had ever seen in real life and it has influenced me still to this day on what I like i.e. Cragars, tunnel rams and wild 70's style paint
Pictures don't do the paint color justice.

Based upon the popular responses to 1970's street freak threads I think Ryan need a link on this site to a special 70's street freak section.
