    That is sick.... just think if you hit a bump you'd probably bend a rim.

    Well I think that it is pretty cool...I'd drive it..

    Just because does not have the original 14 inch wheels, stickers and whatnots does not take away from the car at least it is still on the road. Cars are meant to be driven and modified, not stored(unless it is something rare!!!!)

    I don't think that wheel/tire combo could even live on the street. Heck, around here the manholes are 1.5" to 2" below road height, you'd beat those rims to death in a day.

    it actually dosen't look that bad IMHO. the rims look decent on it, and they didnt need to put taller springs in to fit them (maybe just a little) I've seen some poorly done ghetto cruzers. this one is pretty tasteful. I'm not sure how i feel yet on the patten leather interior though. and the black chrome polished dash

    Sell the wheels and tires on Ebay and put Buick road wheels on it and some nice tires . I'd find room for that one in my garage ! But where ? :rant: :Dou:

  8. Except for the wheels and the S & M interior it's not that bad. Dump the wheels and sell them to someone who wants them on their monte carlo and pick up a kinky girlfriend and you'll have it made!

    Other than the interior I't not too bad. That other Aqua coloured Riv looks worse I think. The intrior is bad, but not as bad as that electra on ebay. I actually kinda like the wheels.

    It really is a beatiful car aside from the steam roller wheels. I never subscribed to that look. To me it's right up there with the 6 foot wings and fart cans epidemic.

    What's up with that interior pic though? Looks like the interior was "Touched by an Angel" with that glow goin on.

    Take the rims off and the stripe down the side, replace the grill with the original and it'd be a nice car.

    Normally I don't like the wagon wheels, but for some reason I kind of like it on that car.

    I would axe the 22s and put some real rims on it. 17" torque thrusts would do nicely.

    I love the way some people use the term "total restoration" in their ads. I doubt if they know the meaning of the word. To restore means to bring back to original. Perhaps re-building would be a better term. (or in some cases a total bastardization!!)
