f-body low rider???

Yes it's is possible..... i never thought i'd see the day when someone took a sports car and decided to turn it into a low rider.
It's not even that it doesnt look good...it's hard to explain but let me know what you think...........

Why lock it? I don't like the looks of these type of cars either(at all actually), but as everything, someone does like it, so, help them out in what they are looking for. No need to flame these guys/ gals...

the lowrider definatly looks like garbage but i would buy it anyway...just put new wheels and lose the hydraulics and the car would be normal again...the mileage is low, its a clean car and they arent asking much so thats the only reason i would buy it.

Check it out...its really what you plan on doing with it. Who is going to race a lowrider Camaro or Bird?? These cars are for show and they are featured in magazines and win trophies. Thats why you don't see these people asking about engine swaps and adding NOS. They are for looks. All show and still have some go. So don't hate.

there is nothing wrong with having a show car that can kick some serious *** on the street!

i like the pic with the 20 wires........not my taste, but tasteful for what it is.

the first one looks like a cheap lowrider imitation. something to laugh at more or less. a candy clear?? what is that...?

some people....

Wouldnt we all love to have that z28? I mean c'mon its got a great paint job and is very clean. Can you remember back to when you guys/gals bought the camaro you have now? I bet it wasnt that clean and you would much rather trade straight across. So its a lowrider, I bet you guys that try and turn 6ers into hot rods dont like getting picked on becuase of having a 6 cylinder.
*edit* the 89 tta and grand national so on so forth are different stories
