I was talking to a guy that works at a local tuner shop about some of the goofy things people do to their cars. He said he has seen it all, someone even tried to make a custom grill out of barbeque pit rack. what is some of the crazy stuff you guys have seen.

 

that sounds more ghetto than custom.. hehe....lol, next thing you know some people will start using those aluminum trash can lids as hubcaps...

 

there's a beat up old hooptie on campus with a giant Band-Aid next to a big dent on the drivers side fender...

 

My personal favorite was a old beat up 80 something suburban with those neon washer lights and a underbody neon kit

 

that's pretty funny.

In Compton, where I work at, they put 20s on everything. Whatever they drive, they have a very nice sounding system and 20s. Last time, I saw an 80 something civic with a clean system and 20s. As it was passing by, he was bumping and no rattling whatsoever. Kinda jocked it for a sec.

Sometimes, they got these on their cars too

 

88 Chevy Nova







'nuff said...

 

lol..that Nova is too funny. Using duct tape as racing stripes is the worst I have seen.

 

I've seen they put a wood piece that comes froma pallet that they used in stores for bulk merchandies and used it for a spolier of the trunk. Those you probably remember on ebay with a SUPER FAST Civic.

 

as told by my mechanic:

one day they had this late 80's car on a lift to do some work, and they saw this bit of enginuity/insanity: the guy's oil pan was leaking, and he rigged a little pan or a bottle below it, so that all the leaking oil would drip there, and every once in a while he would transfer that back into the engine.

 

Heres a friend of mine's (Kurt) Cutlass, the heap a crap had about a hundred air freshners hanging from the ceiling in the car and pink **** carpeting he picked up from a dumpster and one day he took it in to get the oil changed the people there told him it was unsafe to drive so hes gettin rid of it and is getting a Minivan.... who knows what thats gonna look like when its done.

there was a kid that went my high school..that made a body kit for an '88 maxima out of sheet metal...it wasnt even like he shaped the metal so it was curved..it was screwed into the body of the car and hung straight down

 

Saw an 80's buick or olds or somethin a month ago with a foot tall spoiler and... a loudspeaker mounted on his trunk facing backwards. He spoke to me using his loud speaker too as he turned on the highway: he said "Bet that has VTEC" Note tho, I was driving a Silverado 2500HD. Must be something I dont know about the truck, always wondered why it revved so high

My girlfiend and I were laughing all afternoon about him

 

and a few pics of 'special' cars i've seen around.

 

And lastly, I have no idea what kind of car this is, but it is the strangest looking thing....

 

I still want to know why I hate Honda's. It might not be the manufacturer though. I think its the ricers. Thanx bigdo26

 

ha glad to clear the Honda thing up for ya!

 

Turdlett:

Interested in comin to the CT meet in August? noticed you're in New Haven

 

That is the French made Citroen. They are ugly but they have a hydraulic suspension system that lowers the car when you park it. They were very popular in the 60's.

Oh ****. Some of those pix were taken in the parking lot of Embry-Riddle in daytona beach. I used to go to that school and I've seen some of those cars before

that should keep you guys busy for a while

 

When is that meet. I get out of the Air Force and am coming home in August. It would be cool to meet up with some of you guys. I'll be at every meet possible when I get out. Kinda hard to go to the New England meets when I'm in Oklahoma...or worse, in Qatar like I am now. I've been without my maxima for 4 months now. Just three weeks left now!

 

oh no...this thread is turning into a rice thread

 

ehh.

 

disgraceful...

 

lol

 

Yes, that Citroen is ugly, but todays Citroens are pretty cool cars, I guess Citroen CX (not sure) participates in various World Rally competitions and they take good places.
Peugeot 206 is the most popular car in Europe among youth, like Civics here is guess.....

 

another good one

I forget the link but i remeber a while back I saw a civic(i think) and the entire body kit was made out of wood. It wasnt a joke either. They put alot of time and hard work into it. couldnt believe it

 

that just makes me sad....

I hope whoever owns that is NOT an org member.....

 

 

lebron's maxima (back in the day)

 

who???

90

 

Lebron james...

 

hahahahaha

 

I'll be down for it. Hopefully I'll have some good mods on it too

 

This is annoying

 

I don't see the humor from making fun of Hondas and "ricers" in general anymore...think I'm getting too old. But to each of their own...

 

Riceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee thread lol dis is funny as hell
