The car was clear of the tracks unless in motion. Sucks about the 3 girls though. |

 well, the wagon is something I made. 4ws lowrider. The gas can, just thought it looked cool. Theres a tool box. Mostly just rusty junk.
The meat grinder, well people are putting snow skis and surf boards on a car at the same time, all kinds of stupid crap. I figured why not. If they can put pointless junk up there I can put a meat grinder. Who knows, may need it someday.
Oh, wait. I see what your saying, the gas can is just sitting inside the wagon. Someone said it looked like a moonshine still. |

How much undercarriage damage did the ridiculous low-rider fad cause on those country roads?

No damage. I did help level out some bumps though.
Defiantly appreciate your concern for the preservation of the rural roads. |

Ah! The classic "I'm gonna tell you how much I dislike your car by disguising my opinion in some lame "I give a shit about you and/or your car" question".
Nice going, crvc  .
I often wonder why you folks bother to post in threads like this. If you didn't like it, you should have just moved along.
86vwgti8v obviously loves his car, has a great eye for photography and it appears he's enjoying the hell out of it. That's priceless whether the car is bone-stock or in the weeds. And it's one more back on the road (bumpy as it may be) as opposed to rotting away in a field somewhere. Good on you, 86vwgti8v!!
