"Time Travel back to the 1970's and Add the Mud Flap Girl to Your Latest Project"
Truckmates are the perfect complement to any Big Rig, Heavy Duty Trucks or 4 x 4's. They are easy to apply to mudflaps, hoods, grilles, etc. Just glue them on and hit the road.
The mudflap girl is an iconic silhouette of a woman with an hourglass body shape, reclining or sitting, leaning back on her hands, with her hair being blown in the wind. The icon is typically found on mudflaps, clothing, and other items associated with trucking in the United States. The image is sometimes also known as trucker girl, trucker lady, or seated lady.
This famous design was created in the 1970's by Bill Zinda of Wiz Enterprises in Long Beach, California, to promote his line of truck and auto accessories. It is variously claimed to be modeled on Leta Laroe, a famous exotic dancer at the time or on Rachel Ann Allen, a friend's wife, and mother of Ed Allen, the trademark's owner.
