Seriously dropped rear end

I couldn't search on this, because I have no idea what the hell to call it. Take a look at this pic..



Now, for once it ISN'T about the girl, it's the quickest pic I could find with the rear tire like that. Does anyone have any pics on how something like that would be set up? With the car between the tires? It looks absolutly wicked and I'd like to learn as much as I can about it. Thanks

EDIT- Hey look, I'm not a FNG anymore.

 

Oh ****. Here we go. Hang on, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.

 

Delete - Delete - Delete - Nowwwwwww.....

 

isn't that the car

"you have to **** your own **** to get in"

thanks Germ, that phrase has been burned into my brain

the driveshaft runs through the car and the drive shaft tunnel acts like armrest.

it has coilovers and split bones.
the rear diff is about 1/2 and inch from hitting the decklid.

A guy named Ian loska built it a few years back.

Thats about it.

 

That car should be named Herpes - it never goes away, just goes into remission for a while....


Mutt

 

I seem to always bring up everyones 'favorite' subjects, heh.

Any pics of the rear suspension setup under the sheetmetal?

 

Are you building a 'rat rod' too?

 

No.

 

Kyle petty owns it now.

 

Yep - the car a CA kid built and that yahoo from Texas claimed as his own! Was it gas monkey Garage or something like that?

 

Yup

 

funny story about that thing in the new osr and how "kyle petty" re did every thing on the car after he bought it made me laugh since all it looks like the guy did was respray it with some krylon any way this will closed soon.. and if you want to scope the car out im sure they will have it at the autorama again this year with there *** monkey trailer and t-shirts

 

I knew there was some contraversy over this car. So, I looked back through all of Germ's posts until I found it....quite an interesting read....

Yes, VERY impratical, but very cool looking.....to me, anyway...

 

Yeah, that thing looks amazing, never thought about actually moving the axle back instead of just up, but I guess that's what innovation is.

 

Haha, I almost pissed myself when I read that. Oh, and post number doesnt mean much, other than you got more addicted than most. The HAMB is worse than cocaine, no joke.
