That 70s thread.

I still listen to a lot of ska, and late 70's 2 Tone. If you want to relive your yoof, grab the Trojan boxsets from Amazon or your local record emporium. The Beat, The Selecter, The Specials, those guys etc etc. great music.

The 60's Jamaican stuff is amazing too. I got into it solely because of the Clash covers of Junior Murvin's "Police and Thieves" and Toots and the Maytals "Pressure Drop"

Yep, still listen to a lot of ska too.Have you heard any skindred,new but love that regga punk sound.

there's been a couple on tardme asking $30 - $35k NZ in the last couple years.

Of the 2 original ones allocated to NZ I could tell you the Mainland one has quite a history There are I believe more than the original 2 in NZ now days. Before they could be sold new the local stealerships had a competition to sell the most Bonnevilles. Tommy's on Moorhouse Ave won that right, they repo'd it a bit later that's when I pounced on mine...

Two people from Dunedin I've ridden with have ahd one - I think they may have even been at the Vincent Rally at one stage. (The BRONZ rally not a rally for Vincent owners...doh!)

Been watchin' Spastic & Skutch have ya?

That car must have left the Ford factory without shockies judging by the alarming amount of wallowing when cornering/stopping.

Oh, and the bloody thing set off a rash of copy-cat paint jobs on everything from Minis to Mk3 Zephyrs, sheesh imitation is the sincerist form of flattery but c'mon, on a Morrie thou??.

And Farrah Fawcett Majors - "good morning Charlie" - had the coolest hair

I do believe I owned flares and clogs and various tank tops and chokers


in the 70's, just had to add that clarification

Dont forget the waist-line of your bum-huggin' flares was up under your ribs somewhere...no skanky butt-crack showing back then...and no 'muffin-tops' either.
