Not that I’m complaining, but some things in that pic probably aren’t as nature made ‘em.

I’m not upset that my 70 Judge clone has had bodywork, not upset if she has had bodywork

Are you saying it's a clone?

The PLastic lawn chair, as well as the Plastic looking boobs, seem suspect

Lack of tattoos seems to support vintage. Not so sure about the molded extension cord plug with a ground blocking tab ... I'd have to research that. I didn't notice anything else unusual in the pic

Might be staged, but plastic lawn chairs were invented in 1965. As for the other plastic, looks legit to me

i'd say definitely not a RamAir3
guarantee that one has 'round ports'

Wouldn't be surprised if its been bored out
- and at least one 'rod' knocking inside it, if not more

But i'd take it in a heartbeat, and go all over it really well right from the start .

The fabric appears to be plenty strong...

According to the history, the Monobloc plastic chair was being mass produced as early as the '70s and certainly by 1983 in the US. They were usually white, don't know if the blue/gray color is meaningful to the vintage. Colors were less common but maybe they were available from the start.

Halter tops were popular from the late '60s thru the '70s, pretty much disappeared in the '80s. They came back in the mid '90s, popularized by Britney Spears and others.

Bell-bottoms became popular in the late '60s. They got progressively bigger in the '70s, usually worn with platform shoes. My personal experience, in 1968 as an 8th grader my friends and I swore we would not wear bell-bottoms. The following year, that was all I wore. Just the other day my sister shared a photo of our family from 1976 out to dinner with my grandparents celebrating their 50th anniversary. I wore my favorite dressy pants, pale yellow with big bell bottoms and platform shoes. Floral print polyester shirt. Ultimate in cool.

The girl in the pic is not wearing shoes, so missing that clue.

I remember those big decorative belt buckles being popular but I can't recall when. Don't think I ever wore such a belt buckle.

Her top color seems more Orbit Orange than Carousel Red. That and the chair seem to eliminate pre-1970 in my mind.

Long straight hair was popular in the '70s. I'm thinking Peggy Lipton in The Mod Squad and Susan Dey in The Partridge Family.

I looked at the extension cord, my oldest orange outdoor cord I bought circa 1982. It no longer has the original molded plug ends since my wife does most of the hedge trimming and uses an electric hedge trimmer. Actually, the male end was still original until 2 years ago but the ground prong broke off and had to replace it. But I'm thinking that style cord has been around since well before the '70s.

I don't think anything else in the photo helps with the vintage.

My guess, the photo was taken between '72-78.

Perhaps the shirt graphic was inspired by the 1971 movie Two Lane Blacktop.

Was the photo just random on Facebook or do you know more about the young lady?

I also saw this and another couple pics of her on FB. Doesn't make it true but someone commented she creates these to look old school and is involved in some kind of vintage clothes business.

I still have a 3-wire 100' extension cord I purchased back in 1967 so I could run power from the apartment laundry room to the parking lot so I could vacuum out my then-new GTO. Mine was a molded flat wire design but would think the round wire would have been more common back then.

Long straight hair might have originated with the surfer girls in the early 60's and was the most common hairstyle down in the beach cities around L.A when I was a teenager. Going inland resulted in the beehive hairdo which I always hated.

It appears to me that the halter top has been hand made out of
a Judge t-shirt. These shirts did not exist in the 60's, 70's or 80's, so I don't think
the picture is very old......perhaps 90's?
