So I was at work in Roseville the other day and had just dropped a patient at Kaiser Roseville and came to a stoplight and what did I see across the way ??? this:




Does anyone know who this is ?? I've never seen anything like it.... pretty seet though. Sorry my pic is bad - camera phone....

and today I saw a lifted OLD Honda, like one of the civic cvcc's from waaaay back.... weird stuff coming out lately. unfortuantely I was on the phone at the time so I couldnt get a pic of it

I read about that somewhere, I think on turbo bricks. Seems really cool. Apparently he has done that to a bunch of cars including a diesel mercedes wagon.

that would make sense... I think the law now says to be exempt from smog it has to be 74 or older... or close to that. I have no idea what year that shaggin wagon is though... not that read on classic Volvo's
