Although born in the 70s (76 to be exact) I'm more a child of the 80's as those were my formative years. I was thinking about some of the words that were all the rage then but if you said them now it would be hilarious.
So, think of some words (usually adjectives or insults as they don't age so well.)
Heres some examples:
Fab (usually accompanied by a double thumbs up)
Skill (means great or excellent)
Spaz / Spacca (not very PC but still retro slating)
Speccy Four Eyes - haven't used that for years. ;D
Ace
Brill
Whoash (usually shouted out if I saw a nice car going past) - anything was better than my dad's Allegro.

Besides that I remember the 90s a lot better, but Scottish slang from the 90s onwards is just as hilarious! For a start, around here (West Coast/ Glasgow) the average Nova driving yobbish curse word is a 'ned', which is funny because thay hate being called it! To get your attention, they resort to a chorus of "Hol' you!", anyone caught wearing black is a Goth, or as the neds say, "a pure Goffic man!". I could go on like this all night, so I'll reccomend you go all go to
