I posted some other pics from Pomona today but I didn't want to pollute that post with these pics. Looks like P-Ditty and some of his homies are trying their hand at something other than Escalades...
I don't know if you noticed the speakers mounted pointing out on the rear of the body just above the bed, but if this car isn't bad enough on the eyes, you shoulda heard the foul gansta rap sounds he was pumpin' outta it! Needless to say they didn't hang around too long...
Not that I like it, but it doesn't look any more ridiculous that some of the ones built in the '70s...one that was on the cover of R and C with rear tires about 3 ft wide comes to mind... Brian
How heavy are those wheels? I think I'd at least be worried about the rear brakes not being effective...

It is funny to think that there are people out there that are so pumped when building something like that. But that is probably exactly what they ssay about the jalopy's we drive. So oh well. I think it is hidious but What do I know. I saw when they were loading it on the trailer to leave and ther was a big crowd around it. Somebody digs it.

That's not a bad looking car. Lose the horn, and speakers. The wheels don't look to bad. Picture them painted with whitewalls. Dean

call me a sicko, but I kinda like the thing...other than the gangsta rap blarin at ya... not my choice of wheels, guess it's a matter of personal choice, hey, at least its a hot rod, ya know? did ya talk to the guy at all? find out who built it?
What Kustm52 said.. And, The only part I don't like is the octagon hub cap. It's too Gothic looking for the reast of the car. And maybe it's because of living here in El Longo, the Rap Kapital of the world I've grown accustomed to dubs... Don't like em when the car rides like a 4 by but the first car I ever saw with Dayton straight laces was a Sting Ray back in the 60's. Model T's are sposed ta have spokes!

Isn't this a prophetic sign from the Bible or something? I thought I heard once that when Dubs appear on hotrods the end is near. Kinda like when the sea turns to blood. I'm thinking this is a bad bad sign here. It is of the Devil.
At least the Bucket seats match the paint job. Holy shit, give me some hope Abe.....you got any pics that won't burn my retinas?
