Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Let's see your Mod Bods-The Wild New Put-Ons!
I've always though these decals have been a real neat touch on some of the trucks I've seen for sale, I'd love to see yours!

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Found a site with pictures of vehicles and a NOS Eagle kit. If you like these, I'd grab the pictures before they disappear.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Thought I would bring this thread back, here is a blazer that a local (to me) restoration shop did. I have no info on it but, it has highlander interior and, incomplete "Feathers" graphics

Something about vintage decals to me - they look horrible yet so cool. Sweet Blazer.

Edit: since the same antenna appears present in what looks like a non-correct location closer to the cowl edge I assume it’s the same Blazer that was acquired. It’s nice they’ve made a reproduction decal set available.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
It's blurry because the original post from ten years ago is from somebody who used photobucket. Here is the picture. Perhaps an admin or moderator could modify the original post and delete mine.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Well anyone is more than welcome to shoot Restore A Muscle Car a message and see if they can show a pic of the SPID. With that being said, how come we've yet to see the Sandman, Flame, 1776 or, the Van Rippler? I wouldn't mind owning a 72 Blazer with the Sandman graphics but, I guess Feathers, Eagle and, Hawk were the most popular.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
I guess the 72 Luv didn't get any love, but the Vega did. Does anybody have the poster or ad and can show more close up views of the different designs? I can't even read Sandman on the side of that 1 inch truck.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Hot Rod Magazine did a Mod Bod van back in the day. Red with the Rippler graphics and a bunch of their own mods. I think I have a pic somewhere.

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
I still have mine. She even still comes out to dance.
Interesting that most of the “feathers” that I see have the “Feathers by Chevy” on the glove box. Mine is Feathers, but has the “Sportbird by Chevy” on the box. I have copies of the Sportbird magazine article that shows up sometimes, but most glove boxes I see are feathers.

That is also an interesting note. It seems like it was called both things in advertisements, here are ads for the Feathers Blazer being called both Feathers and Sport Bird. |

Re: Mod Bods-Let's see 'em!
Here's a take on the feathers decals now on eBay. The caps look too small on the 17" wheels imo.
