    You can't really see it but he had a crap ton of expanding foam holding that back window frame in.

    At first I was like wtf is up with his tail gate, that is clean, then I saw the window...

    The strangest part is why didn't they just buy a used Silverado/Sierra? It's not like they're rare. They probably could've done a straight trade for the Suburban.

    Maybe a tree fell on it? We've had some great storms recently. This was probably cheaper than buying a new car.

    This should be fun. I wish I had a picture of the Bugatti I saw last year. Just a $1mm car driving down the road, NBD.
    DuPont Registry used to be based right by my house. The Cars and Coffee were nuts.
    Hold on, I'll be back.

There's barely even room to get your arm down either side. For the last year there was a 289 option as well.

    In stock form it doesn't really drive well. The rear suspension can't handle the torque, the diff is too tall, and the stock wheels & tires are too small. Definitely a a cool car though.
    My friend has one which I've driven a bunch. It's silly, and the brakes definitely can not keep up with the powerplant.

    Yeah, that's it alright. Sharp looking British sports car, but fell way short of the Cobra (even though Carroll Shelby was involved). And it was the same story for me. I was into MGs and Minis, so I had a lot of "British Car Club" friends - one of whom owned two Sunbeams: an Alpine and a Tiger.

    V.I.S.I.T

    I’m no engineer— but that looks like a lot of work to make a straight axle try to compete with independent suspension.

    Is this “2024 Hydraulics” on steroids and I’m just dumb?

    Hilarious to see a truck with a 3ft lift that only has 8 inches of ground clearance.

    Oh— and they wrote White Chicano Privilege wrong.

    This was outside OCC Roadhouse, which is Sr's spot here in Pinellas Park. They have a huge outdoor entertainment area and restaurant. This is Truck and Jeep night and they do a line dancing live event that night too. I am never surprised at the stuff I see there.

    Here is another one- Rollin' Copper


    These guys do some work on my trucks. Good guys, but their taste is a bit different than mine. They do great work though.
