Why are people complaining about some of these super slammed cars? what did you expect from the thread title? this is about the LOWEST static driven cars, so stop fussing and stop posting cars that are not hammered, there are plenty of other threads to post your mildly lowered cars.
static, before it was bagged. trans lift, flat pans, 7 inch beam.

I'd love to set my 59 that low, but the roads around here would tear it up in a heartbeat...is that a 4 or 6 inch beam? _________________ Brother's 56 Thread http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=652839 |
