i don't know a whole lot about the "jersey looker" scene because i'm too young and i'm new to it. all i know is that i really like the look. maybe someone has done some research on it. it's almost like the "mulholland look" for vans, wich we all know that the mulholland look revolutionaized automotive engineering much the way "flo-bee" reinvented hairstyling.

umm, ok I'll bite, what exactly is a jersey loker. i'm from dritey jerz, originally, and i have no clue...lmao  |
The Jersey look has been more of a cultural entity than a fad like many of the other genres in bus collecting that have come and will die out with time; hoodride, rat rod, Hawaiian look. The Jersey look not only embodies such amiable traits as classiness, excitement, and sportsmanship, but it also has the thrill of knowing every lady I pass in this beast is soaking her panties. You can’t say that about many other vans. You see, whether it be the gleam in the mags or the gradient of the wheel arches, these vans scream “lets do something dirty tonight,” which as I have been told is a distant cousin to NJ’s real state motto, Dirty Jersey.
From Camden to Atlantic City, up to Newark and back to the Barrens the Jersey look can be seen scooping up the common riff raff from unchic gatherings at the bowling alley, probably hauling Natural Light, and ending the night in park at the landfill overlook. So, from the eight-ball shifter to the Monza muffler and all the way around, the van is reminiscent of your first gold chain won in a claw machine down on the shore, Classy while trashy, New Jersey! |
i think that about sums it up right thar.

Will there be a Jersey look exhibit at this weekends Show n' Go?
I may make the trip just for the chance to see some big ol' fender flares and sip Natty Light from a straw.

Is there a "Jersey looker Mafia" yet?
If so: Can I have a sticker?

we will refer to you now on as "The Godfather"
but i like "don" better or maybe "the kingpin of the jersey looker scene"?
digest it, let it marinate a little and then decide. 
and the wheels look like the set that came on my 66 single i just picked up.
chevy bolt pattern i think. ET brand
