pimp my ride 70s style with an atari 2600

Who needs an LCD headrest screen and an Xbox 360 for each passenger in their car anyway? Here’s the proper way to outfit your ride with gaming tech.

Buick Riviera 1979 Atari Edition

This 1979 Buick Riviera has all the style and class you’d expect from a pimped out vehicle. But the real icing on the cake is the embedded Atari 2600. The car’s owner, Kevin, even went so far as to cram a 13-inch woodgrain television under the dashboard, which perfectly compliments the late 70s motif. (If you look carefully - there’s another nice retro touch - an 8-track player behind the steering wheel.)

Now you can play classics like Tooth Protectors and Kool-Aid Man at the same time as crashing into the car in front of you. The bonus: no pesky air bags! Sweet!
