ATTENTION OLD MEN;

A dropped car will give the appearance of bad camber when resting on it's frame. The camber will correct itself when the vehicle is raised to "drive height". Quite often an operator of said vehicle will drop the vehicle while it is in motion to create sparks to "wow" onlookers. Typically, they attach plates onto the body for these drag shots.

Next you old geezers will complain that there's been a suspension malfunction in this vehicle;

Or that the frame is bent on this one;

That shit has been retarded for decades.
Maybe at one point in the 80's when Cheech and Chong was still relevant, lowriders\hydraulics might have been cool.

Great link.

There are some seriously cool cars on there.

I don't think being Japanese (or German) excludes a car from being a Rat Rod. I do think being less than 25 years old does though.

I love the KDF Mangler.
