Back in the 1970s, if you had a car and some time on your hands, there was nothing better than cruising the boulevard. And if you were lucky enough to live in LA, Van Nuys Boulevard, specifically.
There is something timeless about young people having fun, and photographer Rick McCloskey perfectly captured 1970s Cali cruising in many of these photographs.
Here are 22 pics from the golden age of cruising.
