    wondering if there's any lowrider fans on here. nobody can settle for just one hobby. i see all these sweet tanks on here now i want to see some sweet rides. kinda lame to start this thread with no pictures but i'll post tomorrow. right now i have a 94 chevy laying frame in the garage. it only lacks a good paint job which is coming after the first of the year when that good old income tax comes in. anyway if you have a sweet ride of any kind let's see it or if you have big plans on one lets hear it.

    I have built many cars. I used to race scca and had many fast cars but my fav by far was my show vw. All joking aside I had over 300whp out of a 4 banger and could spin the tires at 70. I did not care about the speed I had it sitting on the ground because I would rather it show then go even though it could go. I have had audis porsches bmws and vw all with heavy mods. I am stuck with 7 large chevy trucks now as I run a landscape company and am carless just big trucks.

    so many things you can do with trucks these days and endless parts for chevy trucks. between my trucks and my tank i stay broke, but i'm happy that way. everytime i get my air ride done they come out with something new. so i whip out the old plasma cutter and welder and go to work. this truck has been cut in two so many times it's crazy but i will never be satisfied and my wife thinks i will never grow up.

    sweet cavi. had an izuzu truck with cce hydros rode like a log wagon. that was 10 years ago with no accumulators. had crazy hops though. past two rides i've run bags. i'm real big on slam's bag right now but isn't everybody. on the 94 i'm running two 380 viars with 7 gallon tank, 1/2 inch line, with 9 switches. on the rear i have a superlift 4-link with slam 2600s. air ride technologies control arms up front with 2600s. only running 20 inch wheels because they tuck nicely with no cutting to the fenderwells. promise pics tomorrow.

    I had a body dropped mazda for a while but haven't done anything in the scene for years. I miss it and think about doing another mazda but do not have the time for that right now. My screen name has club initials in it...NC...I am sure you know where that comes from

    i dont know if it qualifies as a low rider, but if i had 50k to blow on a car it would definitely be a '49-50 Mercury Custom chopped and shaved. when i was in high school i had an '83 Buick Riviera on bags with blue suede interior and spoke rims, her name was Camile and she was a righteous pimp mobile

    it's crazy how the styles change. i remember those days. budniks were the stuff. if we rolled 16s now people would laugh. the toyota behind you, i had those exact wheels on a 90 blazer with just a static drop. they were reversed, that was the style for a while, back when people rolled snug top campers.
