Inspired by the Peter Sellers movie "I Love You, Alice B. Toklas", I've been wanting to depict a gaudily-painted hippie car model, but so far have been unable to find any reference pictures, even using Google. Can anyone tell me where to look? Thank you.

Janis Joplin's 1956 Porsche:

I searched "psychedelic car "
so any variation on that theme should get you a bunch of ideas.

The Hog Farm Commune's bus:


Realistically, you could chose any early 60's car, especially a VW Beetle of VW Microbus and paint colorful flower designs on it.

I think it only needs to be
1 jimmy Hindrix
2 a few cans of paint
3 a car
4 get stoned.
At least I guess that would be how that works

The most common hippie car is the VW Westfalia.
The VW bus.





And there are plenty of kits on the market.

Ah, so my idea provoked some interest!

BTW, the kit I was intending to use as a base is the 1956 Chevy Nomad. I figured an old station wagon would suit the purpose, since that was the hippie car used in the movie I referred to.
