Post the cars that had class, chill, and money written all over them, this time period. Outliers I guess if they're "pretty much" in that vein.I fuckin love me an upholstered land yacht so pimp, it came standard with a rear COUCH, not a rear seat.
>>29076310You don't need to stop at the 80s to experience a driftable living room anon.Come come friend, you deserve to ascend.
>>29076320I'll take the argument, I get it. But there was an era...I do like that.I have a dual purpose, I am trying to dream up/organize a race class at the local slot car track based on these. Aerodynamics at 1:32 scale don't matter worth a fuck.
>>29076310>rear COUCH, not a rear seatWe used to be a country.
>>29076310
>>29076402Those could get slippery depending on clothing material but what a look. even the wrinkles are aesthetic.
>>29076409I love the coca cola lookin paint options on any model.
>>29076416dang
>>29076415I was talking with a friend the other day about this distinction: where does like "large sport" end and "luxury" begin? Would you say GS doesn't make it but a GT would? Or grand-anything as long as it's full trim?
Brown is a top-tier paint color and I'll hear nothing to the contrary.
>>29076418think: cobra side pipesI had a brown/cream 84 chevy truck I loved the combo on.
>>29076420I couldn't tell ya. I think even the big sport yachts had a ton of luxury features.
Also, not american restricted. I like them all.
>>29076433Let me put it this way:What kinds of guidelines/restrictions would you have for this kind of scale model racing class? I don't imagine irl tracks race them lol.
>>29076436>scale model racing classOooooh, I don't know anything about that stuff. Sorry, anon.
>>29076459Just askin for big luxury boss, that'll do.
>>29076320Yeah, but at this point they started losing that boxiness that I love
Well, this is not that. It's not luxury. It was a cheap car at the time that was made to at least superficially resemble the more expensive and luxurious cars of the time like the Dodge Diplomat or LTD Crown Victoria.Still, I love it. One nice thing about it being free of all the luxury trimmings is that there is very little to go wrong, it's very easy to work on, and being Fox platform makes it very easy to get parts. It's just a good feeling car to drive.
ARR ROOK SAME
>>29076402>>29076429>>29077400These look comfy, until you realize it's a car and it moves.Couches are great for houses, not great for cars. There's a reason no company does them anymore, because it'd be far cheaper than actual luxury car seats too, but cars need bolstering.
o yes very luxurious caskets on wheels
>>29076421My 84 caprice has a brown interior
>>29077419Nobody cares
>>29076310I do quite enjoy the Recaro set for my Capri, but the Jensen beats them and leaves them in a ditch in comparison
>>29077419>but cars need bolsteringWhat? Why? Are you intending to turn it or something? You know that you can drive 1000 miles without a single curve in sight... don't you?
>>29076320for me its the chrysler new yorker
>>29076416Oh, look, it's like Snarkley and Butch, Magnum Edition.
>>29076409Dude this is so fucking cool looking. How have I never heard of this thing before.
Pretty staid compared to the yank offerings in here but I love the W116 S class velour/corduroy interiors. They hold up so well with time and they are comfy.
>>29076320It was so damn hard to get that aftermarket grill for my Deville. Finally found one for $50 in a random junkyard in Kansas and had my girlfriend pick it up for me on her way back from Nebraska about 4 years ago.
sporty seats ergonomics german fags really ruined comfy car couches
>>29076415In 1977 "sport" meant that it had a lot of displacement with no power and a lot of stickers/decals
>>29081477OP is a not a Deville
>>29078796I can't help but notice that I've never actually seen one irl since I started really paying attention to cars in '79. All the Chrysler "muscle" from about '74 on was really thin on the ground. Volares and Cordobas oh hell yeah. Along with a few 4 door full size Gran Furys here and there.
>>29081477This would look a lot less awkward if you color matched the bits between the grille and the headlights.
>>29077419they are comfy for getting slurped off while cruising
>>29083391Shit now I can't unsee the weird black plastic bits
The Mirada is another cool car that dodge only made for 3 years
>>29083894and the cordoba
>>29078131I like the late GM B platform 1990s Sedans despite rarely caring for it
>>29076429Smell it? Aging synthetic materials left in the heat baisted in spilled food and drink, sweat and other bodily excretions, farts, and almost certainly ancient cigarette smoke.Comfy
>>29083898That's a D body.B body are imps, capri, and roadmaster
Dodge Diplomat is one of the all time best looking cars inside and out imo. There have been a couple of clean ones that I could have bought but ultimately parts availability anxiety has kept me from doing it.
Never been a Ford guy but for me it's the Mark IV. 460, bench couches for the front and back seats, classy body lines. They are also still fairly cheap.
I want to have sex with the 1985 caprice classic wagon
>>29084595Came very close to buying one of these in 2012 but it was in worse condition than i expected when I showed up with the cash, and I walked on it. Very cool cars though.>>29084877I would have bought this era caprice in sedan form if I could have found a good one but they are commanding pretty high price and many have been ethnicized.
>>29076310This is my current daily and its like driving a floating couch down the road. The seats are plush leather and the dash is all green neon, I love this thing, it's so comfy.
>>29076310love my barge
>>29077477Had another blowout gramps?
