As for the plot, ''The Rod Squad'' is about Chip Baretta and his team being hired by baseball manager Charles O.

That said, this fic isn't about the story, it's about 1970s lingo and 1970s [[ShoutOut Shout-Outs]].

What if ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'', a show from [[TheEighties the late 80s]], happened about a decade earlier, in TheSeventies? ''[[http://rrdatabase.cdrrhq.ru/written/db_cooper/rod.html The Rod Squad--In Color!]]'' is the FanFiction answer to this question. It was written by The Enduring Man-Child of ''Fanfic/HomeIsWhereYouHangUpsideDown'' [[HeAlsoDid fame]] under the pseudonym of [=D.B.=] Cooper.
It all started out at The Acorn Cafe, the main ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' [[MessageBoard fan forum]], when the Cafegoers imagined a 1970s version of ''CDRR''. As an illustration, an artist named Kat drew [[http://rrdatabase.cdrrhq.ru/image/viewimage.php?image=1455 a picture of Gadget in bell-bottom coveralls]]. This in turn inspired The Enduring Man-Child to write this fic. It was published around 1998.

Finley to try to find out who is behind announced riots against Music/{{Disco}} music and stop them.

The title is a play on the TV series ''Series/TheModSquad''.

!!These ripped-off tropes will HASSLE you in this fic, man:
* AlternateUniverseFic: ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'', but in TheSeventies. Also, Monterey Jack is Gadget's father, [[EnsembleDarkhorse Foxglove]] has been renamed [[Film/FoxyBrown Foxy Glove]], and, of course, everyone wears different outfits than in the show.
* AuthorVocabularyCalendar: The Enduring Man-Child [[InvokedTrope invoked]] one that's probably from 1979 and contains examples like:
** variations of "hassle" (20 times, and this is a short story)
** variations of "boogie" and "boogey" (11 times, [[UnusualEuphemism all of which stand for locomotion involving a dune buggy]])
** "gritty inner city" (10 times)
** "[[CatchPhrase Right on!]]" (6 times)
** variations of "ripoff" (6 times)
--> '''Foxy Glove:''' So what hassle or ripoff has brought you into the gritty inner city, my main man?
* {{Blaxploitation}}: Dale and Foxy Glove seem to come right out of this genre, especially Foxy, hence her changed name. And Dale gives chipmunk power salutes (Foxy doesn't, she's a bat).
* CallForward:
** While comforting Tammy, Foxy Glove predicts cable TV.
*** FunnyAneurysmMoment: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] by her claim that it's going to be "all FREE".
** She also hints at cell phones way ahead of their time.
--> '''Foxy Glove:''' Besides, the call was probably made from a pay phone. It's not like someone can carry one of those things in his POCKET!
* TheCity: Also known as the "gritty inner city".
* CostumeExaggeration: What is not exaggerated in this fic?
** The late Seventies were an era of wide neckties. Chip has one that's so big it doubles as a surfboard.
** Gadget's platform shoes. The dress-up variant requires a crane to get into them.
* {{Crossover}}: Briefly with ''Series/{{Kojak}}''.
* {{Funk}}: Dale has got two tickets for [[Music/GeorgeClinton P-Funk]]. Also, apparently the "chukka-chukka" theme tune.
* FunnyAfro: Yes, this is pulled off in a fanfic with no illustrations whatsoever.
** Dale wears a big afro.
** Foxy Glove wears an ''[[UpToEleven even bigger]]'' afro in comparison to Dale's.
* ImpracticallyFancyOutfit: You know your platform shoes are too high if you can't put them on without the help of a crane. Gadget has such shoes.
* ItsPopularNowItSucks: {{Disco}} for people into [[FolkMusic Folk]] and CountryMusic. The Rod Squad has to keep the Disco Demolition Night from happening at the Oakland-Alameda County Colosseum.
* LikeIsLikeAComma: Dale speaks like this sometimes.
* {{Malaproper}}: Dale, as usual. England Dan and John Ford Coley become England Jim and John Wilkes Booth when he mentions them.
* TheMan: Dale describes his girlfriend Foxy Glove as "[t]he chick who's protecting the people from HASSLES and RIP-OFFS by the MAN".
* [[MartialArtsMovie Martial Arts Fic]]: [[AvertedTrope Averted]], much to Dale's dismay because he couldn't put his kung fu skills to use on this case.
* NiceShoes: Gadget wears platform shoes. When she dresses up, she wears platform shoes [[UpToEleven so high that she needs a self-made crane to put them on]].
* OneShotFic: It's too short to have multiple chapters.
* PimpedOutDress: Chip, Dale and Gadget at the end.
** PimpDuds: Dale dresses in these in an attempt at getting Gadget to go to a [[Music/GeorgeClinton P-Funk]] concert with him.
* TheSeventies: All rolled up in one PeriodPiece of a fic written in TheNineties but by someone who has experienced TheSeventies first hand.
* ShoutOut:
** The title is one to ''Series/TheModSquad''.
** Foxy Glove is one to {{Blaxploitation}} actress Creator/PamGrier and especially the film ''Film/FoxyBrown'', hence her name change.
* ThemeMobile: The dune buggy which the Rod Squad uses to [[UnusualEuphemism boogie]] everywhere, including but not limited to the gritty inner city.
* TotallyRadical: TheSeventies flavor, man.
