my neighbors caprice wagon on 22s scraper status

[Melt]

i know its probably only gonna be the bay area heads who appreciate this car, but anyways

He almost never has it out of the garage so i took the oppurtunity to take some pics. I know its an eighty something, and it only has like 26k original miles with the burgandy leather interior. Rims are 22s and they fit perfect, the car is on stock suspension. He woulda gone 24s but i know someone in chico with a sedan that had to lift it for the 24s to fit ... anyways on with the pics, like i said this f**kin thing is clean.

hope you guys enjoyed .... its funny i always tried to get him into hondas but he loves big cars, before he got the caprice he had a 98 grand marquis.

its just a style that northern california and more specifically the bay area has of fixing up older american cars and putting rims and a system in em .... and his is one of the nicest "box chevs" ive ever seen ... usually a lot of the other scrapers you see are real raggedy and the rims cost more than the car did.

they took a car that was an ugly piece of s**t when it was new, and they threw big rims on it....

so on the list of things that the bay area has given to the world we have, ghost riding the whip, ghetto hooptys like that one, and aids
honestly, i think the world would be better off if the bay area fell into the ocean

WTF is wrong with ghost riding the whip?

yup i actually seem to see more in the valley than i do when im at my folks house in the bay area. Maybe cause central valley people arent big pussies about having loud exhaust like people in the bay.

The Caprice was twice honored with the Motor Trend Car of the Year award, in 1977 and 1991. The Caprice Classic was also on Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for 1983.

Everything

ghostriding appeals to some people, and to others it doesnt.

im sure there are muscle car guys who say "everything is wrong with souping up hondas"

and for the record, my neighbor has never ghostridden his caprice.
