Theme Tuesdays: Low Citroens

August 3, 2010 | 8 Comments | Bagged, Blog Finds, Citroen, Message Board Finds, Theme Tuesdays

You guys can thank Ollie for this weeks Theme Tuesday as he is the one who introduced me to the crazy world of Citroen 2CV’s which ultimately lead to today’s post.

Despite the unique (odd) suspension design of Citroens, the 2cv specifically, people drop them just the same.

Further proof that if you build it someone will slam it.

Rat, meets Cali, then France

Another Cali/rat collaboration

I ran across this one quite a bit, it could almost pass for a bug

Same car small changes

No fender gap

This truck conversion is sick

Hard to tell what wheels those are but they are a perfect fit

Sick trio, the build of the olive one is an interesting read

Laying, frame, rocker? Not sure with these lol

Video of the above in action:

American trends alive and well in this car

Another one I came across quite a few times while looking

Just cuttin the lawn

Racing

Just as people will drop anything you build people will also race anything you build.

Some CV's battling it out

Not sure how much of this is actually original anymore but sure looks wild

Wonder how fast these are...

I am guessing the original suspension has been tossed

The areo gives them a real wagon/panel van look

Off road!!

Other Citroens

After knocking around on some Citroen forums I came across these other Citroen’s which were are not 2cvs but still interesting.

Low Dyna

Slammed Dyane

Love the one air brushed panel on this one

Chillin with a 2CV

Low pair of Cits

V8

Some crazy person is even trying to put a v8 under the hood of a 2CV which I think is a whole lot wilder (and less sacraligious to Ferrari lovers) than the Ferrari 2cv.

Reminds me of Herbie the love bug

Oh man, this looks like a crazy amout of fun

Chicks dig em

Or at least get em stuck.

A little reward for those of you who made it all the way down here haha

Thanks to Ollie for a lot of these photos and snail.s4.bizhat.com

Theme Tuesdays: Muscle

July 27, 2010 | 8 Comments | Chevy, Ford, Mopar, Theme Tuesdays

I’m in a gas wasting, deafening exhaust, bend the ground with torque type of mood today and the only cure for that is a lot of pictures of Muscle cars.

Hope you don’t mind.

Dude's got a killer hat on

That's a lot of forced induction

Well that's a handful

Gnarly tuck front and rear

The Muscle car of my generation, love the distinctive 5.0 sound

Beautiful stance

Nice backdrop as well

Chevelles are one my my girlfriends favorite cars

If she had one like this I would steal the keys

Muscle cars really look great murdered out

Another murdered out example

CCWs killing it again

Pretty sure the biggest wheels I have seen on an older Mustang

Nothing wrong with some new age muscle

This may or may not have started as a Falcon, either way looks tough

No body kitted 4th gen here

Another Camaro for good measure

OMG

Back to training for me.

Theme Tuesdays: Mazda Speed 3s

July 20, 2010 | 5 Comments | Blog Finds, Dropped, Mazda, Message Board Finds, Theme Tuesdays

I’ve been hanging around more Mazda 3 forums lately whoring out my new drop and letting people know how they can get it and while doing so I have been looking at a lot of Speed 3s’, because I want one, bad.

A few right click save as later we have today’s Theme Tuesday.

This car has seen a lot of wheels latley but these are the current set

Another shot of the ride above

Clean speed on RX-8s

TM3's OptizkLenz13

Nice lookin speed 3 from BC

Keeping the graffiti theme going

There is a set of RPF-1s for sale near me now I wish I could afford

More RPF-1 Win

Wonder what is so funny?

Same wheels as above?

Really a big fan of this one, nice and clean

I would buy these wheels in a heartbeat

Too much poke for me personally, but the owner says he is not done yet

Theme Tuesdays: CCW Wheels

July 13, 2010 | 2 Comments | BMW, Blog Finds, Chevy, Ford, Honda, Message Board Finds, Theme Tuesdays, Toyota, volkswagen

CCW is one of a few custom wheel manufacturers who have really been making an impact on the internet lately and it’s no surprise since they make gorgeous looking wheels to essentially.

Their classics and LM20 models are their most popular it would see but I have yet to see a set of wheels from them I didn’t like.

After seeing two set’s on the weekend at Tuners Against Street Racing I figured an appropriately themed Tuesday was in order.

In case you missed this s2000 from T.A.S.R

Super Lite Coupe on ccws

Nathan's ride, which was featured here before kills it

It was hard to keep this one out of my Corrado Theme Tuesday

Mustang owners love CCWs

Damn

WFSU.Net has serious cars

More Mustang goodness

I wonder what the specs are on these

FD looking great

So.. much... win

Rear fitment is off the charts

If the tops up hard > Soft

Fantastic product shot

Nice lookin clown shoe

Clean.

Even Vette's are in on the fun

Getting ready to put down some numbers

Time to try and convince my dad to get one of these again

Want more CCW hotness? Check out flushstance

Theme Tuesdays: E36 Ti’s

July 6, 2010 | 4 Comments | BMW, Dropped, Theme Tuesdays

It’s about time I made good on my promise to do an e36 ti Theme Tuesday.

While not for everyone (they took awhile to grow on me) with a fairly easy motor swap or the addition of some forced induction the e36ti can become quite the little monster.

With the right aesthetic mods they don’t look to bad either since they are really just a smooshed e36.

I believe this car is local, I could be mistaken though

M Parallels are another great looking oem BMW rim

Dig the keyed lips and boser hood

AC Schnitzer

These look pretty good in track trim I must say

Clean and simple

These look like BBS Rk's, which you don't see too often

Classic Euro styling on this ti, I still don't know how to say Hartge properly

Another very euro ride

Hiding in the shadows and looking sinister

A ti on style 5's chillin at a Cali BMW meet

Sexy Bannana

TI on BBS CH wheels

ti with plenty of dish

Theme Tuesdays: Early Body Corrados

June 29, 2010 | 1 Comments | Bagged, Dropped, Message Board Finds, Theme Tuesdays, volkswagen

I’ve always liked (early) VW Corrados, probably because I like Sciroccos quite a bit as well and they share a similar feel.

While their reliability might be up for question but their ability to look good dumped on a clean set of rims isn’t.

It’s a damn shame that they came fwd as a sliding Corrado would be a treat.

Today's post fills me with a lot of regret when it comes to my old RMs

This dark blue looks really good on hi polished CCWs

Nice shot

Olive drab looks pretty killer here, so does the 2nd set of wheels

My under hood is such a mess and I run with a hood

Fantastic

Dark blue ftw

Another awesome shot

Back shot.

Killin it

Nice lookin interior as well

I am glad my wallet is far away from this car

British Racing Green?

More RM's

Murdered RM looking great

VW's always roll deep

Killer other than the hood

Win

Local Corrado that took home some hardware at CSCS

Another local Corrado from the e30 meet, a Scraped Crusader

I will see about a Scirocco Themed post in the near future…

Theme Tuesdays: The Acura RSX

June 22, 2010 | 2 Comments | Blog Finds, Honda, Message Board Finds, Theme Tuesdays

A twitter friend of my @AhmadBrown is a serious RSX nut, one of his more recent tweets that said ‘Just got another RSX today. Good thing I’m not married or else my wife would freaking kill me.‘ tipped the scales in the favor of the RSX/DC5 being the subject of today’s Theme Tuesday.

The scale didn’t need that much of a tip however since I seriously considered getting one of these before I got my Mazda 3. In the end I opted for the Mazda 3 because it could carry more bikes and people at once than the RSX.

These are one of the rims I have my sights set on for the future

This speed bump is unessecarily large

Local RSX which I have seen at a show or two

Another shot of a clean local DC5

Another local car that was at Strech & Poke 1

Simple.

Maybe I should keep my eye out for these wheels too...

Well done sir

This one is also very well put together

More equips

I came across this car a lot but thought this pic had the most impact

I have never seen a DC5 Type R in person...

Quite like this color

I gotta get out to the track

The flushness

This rear diffuser really cleans up the back end

Even more so when body color

Kudos to the photographer this shit is sick

Theme Tuesdays: Classy Car Models Part 2

June 15, 2010 | 8 Comments | BMW, Blog Finds, Dropped, Honda, Message Board Finds, Nissan, Porsche, Theme Tuesdays, volkswagen

Last time I did a ‘classy model‘ Theme Tuesday it went over a lot better than I thought it would. Really I shouldn’t have been surprised. Guys like cars, and guys like girls it’s natural.

But girls also like cars, but they often do not like car show models. What girls do like (generally and in addition to cars) are clothes and style, thus classy car models give the female readers something to enjoy as well.

This way everyone wins! Except me, the screening process for this is hell on my eyes

Classy... Iroc.. I know but still she's a good looking mostly clothed girl

This photo came up a lot in my search so I included it this time

Can't remember the last time I watched Power Block, is she still the host?

She is trying not to pull a Paris Hilton/Britney Spears

The car's not really my style but...

Another from the same shoot

A lot of the more tastefully dressed models prefer BMWs go figure

More BMW love

Her stance is odd

Rude to point and laugh young lady

Think she's imported?

Checking out back seat space...

Another picture of the Beetle chick from last time

Cool part about this photo is that she owns the car

It's not a car but I don't hear you complaining

Both the car and the girl are stunning

Theme Tuesdays: Pictures with attitude part 3

June 8, 2010 | 8 Comments | Benz, Blog Finds, Chevy, Dropped, Mazda, Message Board Finds, Nissan, Theme Tuesdays, volkswagen

Another follow up to the ‘Pictures with attitude‘ Theme Tuesday series, these sometimes take a little longer than other themes to come together but they always go over quite well.

I’m also about half way through another Classy car model Theme Tuesday as well so fingers crossed I can have that for you guys next week.

I am obsessed with my fender gap but would never check it rolling

Miatas and flames/sparks often make an appearance in these

Love seeing atypical cars get sideways

Easy does it...

4x4 guys sure know how to have fun

Beast mode

Stock suspension pushed to it's limit

Who said 4 doors and a sunroof were useless?

Stunt drivers get to do things we can't... legally

Missed this one in the rolling shot post

Just checking the alignment

Drift police?

Bad ass.

Well this is just breath taking

This is the best sticker collage I have seen in a LONG time

See ya

Theme Tuesday: Subaru clearance sale

June 1, 2010 | 1 Comments | Blog Finds, Dropped, Message Board Finds, Subaru, Theme Tuesdays

My Stance Is Everything folder was simply over flowing with photos of Subarus which I had a few different ideas in mind how I could break them up into a few different Theme Tuesday posts but decided to hell with it I can always collect more later.

Here is a lot of AWD low.

One tidy Forrester

and another

If you can keep white rims clean they really pop

I dig this

BC coils spun all the way down

Cruisin low

Asphalt gray rims work great with the white paint and dark tints

Gold grids, not mad

Gorgoues

My god this car is dirty

Fantastic fitment

Stickered lips are not for everyone, this car pulls it off

Same car, back shot

Black and debadged

Paint looks immaculate

Wonder what's under the cover

Dialed stance

The perfect balance of tire, lack of gap, and flushness

mister hashimoto is now RHD

I will end with this conversation piece
