I was driving back from lunch and saw a modified version of the type of car shown here:

Whoever owned the car, put monster truck wheels on it and raised it up really high. Too bad I didn't have my camera with me. Funniest thing I ever saw.

By the way, does anyone know what kid of car that is??? I thought it was a Ford Thunderbird, but I don't think it is.

hehe. I saw a toyota corolla that was jacked way up and had big huge wheels on it the other day. I too wish I had a camera. It was so high that the body sat completely above the wheels. Could this be the latest tuning trend?

Maybe it is the latest trend. You know those cars can crush ours like they were little toys.

A '57 Chevy Bellaire is still a bad-ass car today. Go to Ebay or any other auction and see what a clean '57 will fetch. I think you'll be surprised.

If it's such a bad ass car, why would anyone want to destroy it by making it a monster truck. Oh the horror, the horror!!!!
