16th - Big Hair

Edinburgh

Well, you wanted big hair and flares, so here you are....my 14th birthday, June 1976, helping my middle brother Bryan with one of his (many) 2CVs. There's one in the garage, one out of shot at the left, and you can just see one at the extreme right...oh, and his Traction Avant is in the garage too...

Six years later, we looked like this


other sizes: small medium large original auto

You wouldn't want to go out in a stiff wind with all that hair and pants that wide.
Excellent picture and very cool "in the day"

Hehe.....very cool and I had a 68 VW Bug.

Great old photo from all those years ago, I wonder if the cars have lasted as well as you have.

Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there, hair, shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there, momma, everywhere, daddy, daddy

Classic. Love it.

Shear class love it - if I am not mistaken this is a an original 400cc version - a real original 2CV I had much fun in the more deluxe 600cc version. Cars you have to drive to get anywhere. As for the 6 years on ...class maybe not but by todays ideas but at the time, oh definately - rock group pose
