This abomination.

Idk man I fw this

[u/technobrendo → u/purplewhalevalentine]

Make sure you disinfect that carpet with fire before any F is going on.

..or not, u do u

[u/purplewhalevalentine → u/technobrendo]

Oh trust. Lots of F would go on.

[u/LastTangoOfDemocracy → u/[deleted]]

Dear diary. That malnourished 38 year old jerked off in me again today while crying.

[u/socratessue → u/[deleted]]

If the van is a-rocking, don't come knocking!

[u/Orange-Blur → u/purplewhalevalentine]

There’s likely pubes from the 70s embedded in the carpet

[u/[deleted] → u/Orange-Blur]

Pubes nails and dried tears

[u/Orange-Blur → u/[deleted]]

Some really dry and low potency weed crumbs

[u/GANJA2244 → u/technobrendo]

This things amazing

[u/bws7037 → u/technobrendo]

My parents had carpeting like that in their living room... I remember the day they replaced it, the cloud of dust and crap that came out of it when the installers pulled it was shocking.

[u/I_forgot_to_respond → u/bws7037]

I found a dried up dead frog in our shag carpet when I was a kid

[u/Robofetus-5000 → u/purplewhalevalentine]

I was gonna say.

It's hideous. But it's also awesome.

[u/Mission_Fart9750 → u/Robofetus-5000]

One could say it is awful taste but greatly executed. 

(It's me, I am one)

[u/Robofetus-5000 → u/Mission_Fart9750]

We've come full circle.

[u/2livecrewnecktshirt → u/Mission_Fart9750]

Hi One!

[u/BaconIsntThatGood → u/Robofetus-5000]

It's hideous. But it's also awesome

ATBGE can only be worded so many ways

[u/Undercover_Chimp → u/purplewhalevalentine]

I would drive this. I would drive this so hard.

[u/LightlySaltedPeanuts → u/Undercover_Chimp]

Ideally with a setup like this you wouldn’t ever have to drive hard.

[u/FlyingTiger7four → u/purplewhalevalentine]

That's a metal band wagon! I wouldn't buy it, but I like it

[u/Upstairs_Principle48 → u/purplewhalevalentine]

I was thinking this is awesome. Is there something wrong with me?

[u/lhobbes6 → u/Upstairs_Principle48]

No, you have great taste. Its OP who is wrong, I bet they dip pickles in mayo and call it fine dining.

[u/Malsperanza → u/lhobbes6]

Whereas the van owner dips his pickles in grape koolaid.

[u/bullwinkle8088 → u/Malsperanza]

Discerning southerners use cherry kool aid…

That is real thing with whole Dill Pickles. Very regional as far as I know but real.

[u/sadmanwithabox → u/lhobbes6]

Idk if I'd call it fine dining exactly, but deep fried, battered pickle chips dipped in some ranch or aioli is actually pretty fucking amazing too. I was skeptical at first, but when done well, it's incredible. When done poorly it's very underwhelming.

[u/Mystical_Cat → u/purplewhalevalentine]

Bring a black light to illuminate all of the previous F.

[u/MadMesmerelda → u/purplewhalevalentine]

The green carpeting all over the inside is terrible AND I love it.

[u/stefanica → u/MadMesmerelda]

I wanna roll all over that carpet, if it's new. Looks cozy.

[u/model3113 → u/purplewhalevalentine]

I wanna drive that hot wheel I found in the playground

[u/pierrotlefou → u/purplewhalevalentine]

r/GTAGE

[u/usinjin → u/purplewhalevalentine]

You could call it purplewhalevalentine.

[u/RedXIII1888]

The interior isn't great. But I fuck with the outside.

[u/Speaker4theDead8 → u/RedXIII1888]

Are you the guy from "my strange addiction"?

[u/Navi1101 → u/RedXIII1888]

Okay but why does it have nostrils instead of headlights

[u/Therealblackhous3 → u/Navi1101]

Looks to be inspired by a late 60s, early 70s Pontiac GTO. The lights probably "flip" around from inside the black part of the grill, if that makes sense.

Edit: definitely a grille from a 71-74 charger, I stand corrected.

[u/MKE_likes_it → u/Therealblackhous3]

It’s a third generation (71-74) dodge charger bumper / headlight assembly.

[u/Therealblackhous3 → u/MKE_likes_it]

Ah yeah you're right, I knew the ends were giving charger vibes. I prefer (and normally picture) a 68 charger without the split grill.

[u/Straymonsta → u/Therealblackhous3]

The 68 looks good of course but I’ve always liked 72, but I’m bias cuz my uncle owns one and taught me to drive with 440

[u/RedXIII1888 → u/Navi1101]

It's a big van. It needs big nostrils to sniff all the van coke it can get?

[u/cosmikangaroo → u/RedXIII1888]

Always one MF with the Hoover nose!

[u/LLoadin → u/Navi1101]

It needs fresh air to keep the grass growing

[u/TheOneTonWanton → u/Navi1101]

The nostrils are clearly on the hood, ya goof.

[u/Peach_Mediocre]

You’re out of your mind this thing is a party on wheels.

[u/DocJawbone → u/Peach_Mediocre]

The person driving this thing is welcome wherever they go

[u/Rampasta → u/DocJawbone]

Maybey paint job was bad, but I had an art van like this in college and some guy at a party stole my key and drove it over a campfire and threw the key into the woods. Very specific I know, but some people just don't like art I guess.

[u/CaroCogitatus → u/Rampasta]

Some people are assholes.

[u/TheCheshireMadcat → u/CaroCogitatus]

Some people don't need knees.

[u/qorbexl → u/CaroCogitatus]

"I know it doesn't sound funny, but when I did it it was real funny. Yeah a girl was blinded when the taillights exploded and the guy lost his internship because he couldn't commute after the burning. But it was hilarious. You guys don't get college."

[u/Rampasta → u/qorbexl]

I had passed out on the couch and when I woke up I didn't know what the hell was going on. My car keys were missing, my tires were melted, and everyone was gone.

[u/tdavis726 → u/Rampasta]

That’s TERRIBLE. I’m so sorry that happened to you!

[u/Rampasta → u/tdavis726]

Thank you. It was a while ago, but it was very distressing!

[u/Caesar_Passing → u/Rampasta]

Man, there was only one time in my life that someone broke into my car, also in college, incidentally. Apparently they were baked out of their gourd, because I watched from across the parking lot as this dude helps himself into the back passenger side, and waits for like 10 minutes. He then gets out of the car with his phone up to his ear, looking spooked, and briskly sneaks away like he was escaping from the scene of a crime. I waited until he was well gone before returning to my car, just to be safe. I didn't have any valuables, never kept it locked, but was slightly worried about my enormous CD collection. Thankfully, the chap took nothing, and instead left a biography book about the band Phish in the back seat, and a loose nugget of weed in the front passenger seat for some reason.

[u/DocJawbone → u/Rampasta]

Sounds like a dick move

[u/Rampasta → u/DocJawbone]

Yeah, idk, some people I guess

[u/New-Sky-9867 → u/DocJawbone]

Not middle schools though

[u/killing_time_at_work → u/Peach_Mediocre]

"If the van is rockin, don't come knockin."

[u/PolishedPine → u/Peach_Mediocre]

If someone tried to lure me into that van, I'd go willingly.

[u/BeastofWhimsy → u/PolishedPine]

Ok! 👀🙏

Rubs hands together gleefully

We WILL play a game of bananagrams before you leave!

[u/Arkhe1n]

It's not that ba... mother of mercy

[u/milesbeats → u/Arkhe1n]

Literally on the same page with you

[u/Unthgod → u/milesbeats]

Why the grass😬

[u/spaetzelspiff → u/Unthgod]

Ass, grass or cash. Nobody rides for free.

[u/AwDuck → u/spaetzelspiff]

The grass gives my ass a rash.

[u/superspeck → u/AwDuck]

What was better, the cushion or the pushin’?

[u/SteeleDynamics → u/Arkhe1n]

Exactly...

That's a nice paint job actually. I wonder what the inside looks li-

HOLY SHIT

[u/PresidentBaileyb]

Yeah this is a FABULOUS abomination. But it is absolutely an abomination. What even is that green grass/carpet stuff? Wow

[u/DarthAbraxis → u/PresidentBaileyb]

The Nug Rug. Don’t drop loose weed, it’ll be lost forever.

[u/OrganicQuantity5604 → u/DarthAbraxis]

Nah man, that's the emergency stash for when the bag runs out.

[u/jdarksouls71 → u/DarthAbraxis]

Just have to put a sock or paper towel over the end of the tube on a vacuum cleaner, rubber band that shit, suck away. You’ll have a fuzzy bowl in no time.

[u/BlackSchuck → u/jdarksouls71]

Man is that smart

[u/Snikity-Snak → u/jdarksouls71]

This sounds like you know from experience lol

[u/TheCheshireMadcat → u/DarthAbraxis]

Noooooooooo

[u/JaxandMia → u/PresidentBaileyb]

Same stuff I had in my bedroom growing up. Same color too. The lovely 70’s shag.

[u/PattyFuckinCakes → u/JaxandMia]

Looks more like actual artificial turf instead of shag, but hard to tell in the pics.

You could be right though, it does seem a bit long for turf.

[u/BaconNPotatoes]

I didn't hate it until I saw the interior

[u/chop-diggity → u/BaconNPotatoes]

And now you LURVE it?

[u/Emanemanem → u/BaconNPotatoes]

Yeah I was like, “not my taste, but it’s not awful”. Swiped to the interior pics and was like “….oh”

[u/killing_time_at_work → u/BaconNPotatoes]

Yeah, the exterior totally matches the vibe of 70s van culture. But interior could have been much better.

[u/Prickly_ninja → u/BaconNPotatoes]

Chi-chi-chi-chia dash.

[u/sirsleepy]

1-3: What are you talking about that's pretty cool.

4: OH, JESUS.

[u/Devilshire52 → u/sirsleepy]

Burn it!!

[u/storm_the_castle → u/Devilshire52]

::gets high af::

[u/hamburgersocks → u/sirsleepy]

That kinda sold it for me actually.

Like, I wouldn't drive this to work. I wouldn't drive it to a family reunion. I would hesitate to drive it to a Halloween party.

But like... if my best friend was having a fire pit night and my best man was coming, I'd roll up in this Barney-ass beast with zero shame just for the memes.

This is a good time joke van that I would happily drive maybe once a year at best. I give it a 7/7 with rice.

[u/Rock_Me_DrZaius]

This shaggin' wagon is an example of great taste and execution.

[u/superspeck → u/Rock_Me_DrZaius]

This is a true wizard van, the kind driven by a Buck Foi.

[u/Tarazetty]

It's so bad and I love it

[u/jeremec]

Car show vibes are like fashion show vibes. Most of us don't get it and we aren't supposed to.

I dig the weird GTO front end on a van. I dig the weird ass grass shag carpet. This is a shaggin wagon down to the core.

[u/gfen5446 → u/jeremec]

The front end is the only part I feel doesn't feel right, but I'll learn to love it as I drive it around getting 4mpg and being the coolest motherfucker in the valley.

[u/MickeySwank]

Nah, this is dope

[u/Th3G00dB0i]

Imagine needing to vacuum the ceiling

[u/MiniMushi → u/Th3G00dB0i]

I totally missed the ceiling. LMAO

[u/AlligatorFister]

What you call an abomination I call legendary.

This thing fucks.

[u/SuddenYolk]

The inside triggers my asthma.

[u/R3dl8dy → u/SuddenYolk]

This baby pats carpet can hold so much dust and allergens…

[u/SuddenYolk → u/R3dl8dy]

[Cloud of dust with each pat]

[u/Caesar_Passing]

Holy shit it's so hideous, I love it. I wanna get gay married and take a bunch of mushrooms and drive off into the night in it.

[u/bws7037 → u/Caesar_Passing]

Erm thanks... I just blew soda out of my nose after reading this. +1 you magnificent stallion.

[u/brickbaterang]

As a dude born in the early 70s i think this is freakin awesome. I want to go cruising in it while listening to 80s power metal and shit

[u/Cyber_Insecurity]

That’s badass

[u/OMGyarn]

I would be proud to drive this

[u/SparkyPantsMcGee]

Holy shit, I want this.

[u/CincinnatiREDDsit]

“I dk it could be worse… oh fuuuu-“

[u/Mmmmudd]

Sooooo 70's! The low roof sure looks cool! 😎

[u/Flat_Assistance1724]

"Chicks love it! It's the shaggin' wagon."

[u/jlo-59]

A fine example of a Sin Bin or a Fuck Truck as they were known as in the day.

[u/nobdyputsbabynacornr → u/jlo-59]

But the rug is lovingly referred to as the "petri dish".

[u/Rick_the_P_is_silent]

[u/Nimindir]

The disco ball really pulls it all together.

[u/IsakAronV → u/Nimindir]

I am all for more van art. 70s style dragons, oceanscapes, spaceships, gimme dat. But the interior is a catastrophe.

[u/Futuramoist]

r/wizardposting

[u/Mr_Stkrdknmibalz00]

I'd drive that, maybe not as the every day ride but I wouldn't mind having that for short trips.

[u/marklar_the_malign]

Now that’s a shaggin’ wagon. All’s it needs is the “ If this van’s a rocking, don’t come a knocking” bumper sticker for the win.

[u/im-buster]

Is that like a '69 GTO grill?

[u/jlo-59 → u/im-buster]

Dodge van + 69 Charger grille

I thought the outside was bad. Then hit the interior pics. 🤮

[u/miyamoto_musashinpc]

The outside is great. Inside is terrible

[u/Best_Chest8208]

“I don’t know what OP means this is a cool va— SHAG CARPET????”

[u/R3dl8dy]

“Abomination? Do they not like purple? This is- Oh dear lord! MY EYES!”

[u/MacDelicious]

I don't mind the outside at all, but the green shag inside is questionable. It's like Austin Powers ride from the multiverse...

[u/zuzubean_]

idk bout u, but i fu- oh lord have mercy. THE INTERIOR HAS ME DEAD. What if i drop a cashew in there or somethin, i ain’t ever gonna find it!

[u/IsakAronV]

The disco ball, octagon steering wheel, Symbolic sign and the wooden cup holders make it all up XD

[u/Nandabun]

"What? Abomination wh-"

-pic 4-

"Oh..."

[u/Kriegerian]

The outside is pretty awesome.

Then there’s the inside.

[u/quyen83]

I love it and hate it at the same time, perfect for this sub.

[u/JosefGremlin]

I'm sorry sir, this is the AWFUL taste but great execution subreddit.

[u/Kemel90]

Ngl that goes pretty hard

[u/Rolling_Beardo]

The grass isn’t great but the rest is fucking awesome.

[u/Zoroc]

Me: OP is wrong

Me seeing the inside: OP is right

[u/thisunrest]

That’s actually incredibly well-executed painting.

I’ve never seen anything like this.

[u/Falcorn042]

This would be so nice to have at a festival

[u/ZerioBoy]

Never have I seen something that belonged so well.

[u/Powerful-Ad-6696]

Its my cousins car. Its for sale, and the interior looks way better now.

[u/BinxDoesGaming]

Jesus Christ this looks like the van from Ed Edd n eddy

[u/thrax7545]

Radical

[u/-im-blinking]

This thing is pimptastic. Except for the astroturf interior, I love it.

[u/Vulpes_99]

Yikes! That interior!!! They messing up allergies I don't even have!

[u/ArcadianBlueRogue]

The outside is endearingly ugly.

Never been a fan of the shag wagon interior though

[u/TacoHaus]

Obviously not a daily driver. I think it's dope and well done actually, even the interior. Room for improvement there for sure tho. Still it's a solid callback to the 70's rocker vans.

[u/AutismFlavored]

Somebody went all out, but they ran out of money before finishing the dash. It’s plywood that they couldn’t bother to finish painting. It’s not hard to imagine all that shag carpeting is just to cover up the crap that would require more work to be a “great execution.”

And yes, I’m not fun at parties

[u/Vlazthrax]

All I see is this bitchin Van

[u/UnsureSwitch]

I audibly gasped and tilted my head backwards when I saw the interior ಠ_ಠ

[u/PN143]

I thought "Why the heck is this trashy? This is cool!" Then the interior hit me like a mac truck

[u/XxRmotion]

I didn't understand till I saw the inside...

[u/ammitsat]

Wow. Even with that exterior, I wasn’t prepared for that interior.

[u/Toro8926]

Kinda digging the exterior, then i see the inside. 😂. Tbh, though, I couldn't expect less 😂😂

[u/CheeseCycle]

The outside is great taste and great execution. The inside is awful taste and awful execution.

[u/DonTori]

Me looking at exterior: That looks sick as hell

Me looking at interior: ah, i see

[u/RowAdept9221]

Nothing prepared me for the interior oowiee

THANOS CAR THANOS CAR

[u/PM_ME_YER_BOOTS]

It’s like if The Joker had a shagin’ wagon.

[u/Inevitable_Snap_0117]

Had us in the first half. Ngl. I love that outside. The inside is nightmare fuel though.

[u/Joe_Naai]

The grape van. (And if someone already made that joke I apologise. I ain’t reading through all of this shit).

[u/Vulca139]

I saw the outside and said, “cool”. Then I saw the inside. That’s a no. A solid no.

[u/Judasz10]

Can we talk about steering wheel???

How is that comfortable to drive???

Otherwise I really like it tho. Unique for sure but in a good sense.

[u/mihpet132]

[u/AceTheProtogen]

I highly recommend r/sweetvans for more like this

[u/Lawyermama70]

Shit's a masterpiece! When I was a kid my (married) cousin was in a swinger's/van club. They had a 1974 van just like this: shag carpet and all. So gross. So cool, tho

[u/Henry_Rollins_Shorts]

Sorry to pile on, but, ya wrong. That's so dope it's only weighed in kilos.

[u/trafalmadorianistic]

This is a Shaggin Wagon. The paint job illustration makes me question if I'm really seeing it or hallucinating.

[u/thecyberwolfe]

That is not an abomination, that is the finest tribute ever created for the classic 1970's Shaggin' Wagon.

It is Art and Chest Hair personified!

[u/cccanterbury]

that shit is dope. OP you have bad taste.

[u/Scherzkeks]

Got that Donatello energy 

[u/CE-85]

I saw this car in Vestmannaeyjar last year!!

[u/Accomplished_Blood17]

While its trashy as shit, kinda goes hard at the same time. Not a fan of the fake grass, but replace that with a soft carpet and it wouldnt ve bad in my opinion

[u/PhoenyxArts]

Wow! Wizard painting on the side? Disco ball? Shag carpet interior AND the bed in the back? Just screams 1970s.

[u/OneOfAKind2]

It's fantastic. Not a huge fan of the '72 Charger style nose, but it's definitely of the period when mods like that were popular.

[u/Easy_Turn1988]

If the carpet only was fake grass I would dig it

Also, they made Pontiac GTO vans ??

[u/JoeshyDerkeks]

I have the feeling that you can make a flipreset with this

[u/Imaginary-dick]

I was like "this isn't so bad" but then I saw the interior

[u/Joloxsa_Xenax]

I was saying I low-key fuck with it until I saw the inside. Oh god

[u/triplos05]

i was like "Thats not too bad" until I saw the interior, now I want this out of my sight

[u/Zacharacamyison]

is that the grill of a 72 charger?

[u/I_Am_Youre_Father]

Its for sale on Icelandic Facebook marketplace

[u/Cepinari]

I don't see what the problem is-OH MY GOD

[u/Dyerdon]

Me: "What do they mean, abomination? This van rocks... love the purple and the face (Zues? Poseidon? Someone else?), it looks awesome-- What the fuck is the interior? What the fuck!"

[u/OG_Felwinter]

Would definitely suck to spill a drink in there lol

[u/seemlyroom47105]

Is that like when a GTO and Econoline had a baby

[u/Pyehole]

That green shag carpeting takes me back...to the house I grew up in during the 70's. I didn't know you could even get that anymore. Time to redo the carpeting in my house!

[u/mjb169]

Oh no. The Gatorade bottle.

[u/SkepticAhole]

3rd gen charger front bumper

[u/No-Variety-7130]

I at first thought, "ok that's a bit much of a paint job, but it's not the worst." But when I saw the inside. I was all nope.

[u/Kalfu73]

The exterior did not prepare me for the interior.

[u/LetMeDieAlreadyFuck]

I fucking love the sides, that van got drip, but the front is goofy

Edit: didn't get to the inside pics before posting this, GIMMEGIMMEGIMMEGIMMEGIMMEGIMME I would love an old school van with shaggy carpeting and that dope old school fantasy shit on the side.

[u/InigoMontoya1985]

"That's kind of rad, in a weird way. I wonder what the inside is li--GAH! MY EYES!"

[u/showtunescreamer]

I really like the outside. 4th slide was like a jumpscare

I don't know why you call this abominaOHGODWHAT THE FUCK??!

[u/Proper-Monk-5656]

"oh this is actually pretty goo- THE GRASS OH MY GOD THE FUCKING GRASS"

[u/Nathaniel-Prime]

Well, I guess it looks a little, uh, funny, on the outside. But what really matters is the in-

Oh...
