Old people tell old jokes,
but then again, they also forget them quickly, so view these
1977 vintage 'toons about once a month. |

I've heard of people with
black cars being hired to drive through suburbs, just to
collect all the dust. The same loony logic applies here... |
 |
Yes, there were hot
rodders in the olden days whose show ponies rarely hit the
road, but that wouldn't be the case now days. Would it? |

This pithy social observation is a true story. |

Personal hygiene wasn't a
huge issue to young people in the seventies, though some

These 10 cartoons were
first published in the Rods Inc newsletter, between 1977 and
1981. As I drew the cartoons, I have control over the
copyright, which may not be the case if we were to publish
cartoons that have been lifted from other publications. If
you would like to be published, then I have to insist on
originals. Peter
