Another car mod gone horribly wrong

[Grover]

I spotted this gem on the way to the Oakland Airport yesterday and couldn't help but snap a photo. For a brief moment I thought I saw Big Bird in the drivers seat but later realized it was just a hallucination.

This thing had the most rigid suspension I have ever seen. With every little bump in the road the car skipped around desperately trying to find traction as it bounced around. Amazing really.

That's funny as hell. There are some "donks" in the town where my shop is located with "branded" paint schemes. There's an "Oreo" car and a "Frosted Flakes / Tony the Tiger" car. Some guys are just stupid. I'm not wearing your logo unless there's money in it for me.

I WONDER IF HIS SPEEDOMETER READS CORRECTLY .

I SEE THOSE HERE TOO

TYPICALLY , THEY WILL USE LATE 70"s GM SEDANS THAT THEY GET FOR UNDER

1000 BUCKS AND THEN SPEND $15,000 TO PUT THE BIG WHEELS ON IT !

When I am with Cooper in the car, i always point and shout: ITS A DONK!!! havent been shot at yet!

OT, but maybe related? After seeing these on the news a couple of weeks ago, now when I see a Donk, I also think of the Zedonk.

I'm the same way about product T shirts even. Athlete's get paid waaaaaaay too much for me to go and pay THEM to own a shirt.

That Big-bird car looks like a Lexus SC400 (or a 300 if they went for the 6-cylinder version).

There is a '70's Olds Cutlass (2-door) with at least 22" rims at a service station in Cave City, KY. First time I spotted it the car was covered in primer, 2nd time had paint. My next trip there I'm stopping to take some pics.
