Not my typical review, but I honor every genre in car and truck culture and this squatted truck deserves its flowers. Clean build, simple ex*****on, turquoise accents, and a neon glow on the rims that ties it all together. Builder kept it tasteful and it works. I just have one burning question — how do you drive this thing with its snout in the air and its ass dragging on the ground? Go watch it and drop your answer below. 🔥

1960 Buick Electra 225 all the way from Scotland and this builder reached out to me while he was still repainting it. This thing was already showroom quality before he started and he looked at it and said I’m taking this to the moon. He wasn’t kidding. This lowrider deserves every trophy and medal it can carry. Bravo to the builder for trusting me with this one and for going all the way. Go watch it and show some love from across the pond. 🔥

C10 truck and this builder turned every detail into art. Everything engraved, swivel seats, a hood that lifts on both sides, and see through boards in the bed that are the hidden gem of the whole build. The moment I saw those boards I knew this builder was on another level entirely. Work of art doesn’t even do it justice. Go watch it and show some love. 🔥

Hot pink Cutlass, two door and that smile behind the wheel says it all. Not sure if she built it but she owns every inch of it and the confidence shows. Love all builds, but there’s something extra special about seeing females in a male dominated field doing it this well. Hot pink paint that stops you cold and a driver that matches the energy perfectly. Bravo to the builder! Let’s see way more of these. Go watch it. 🔥

Meet the Caddie Baddie. Fleetwood Cadillac properly lowered on a full lowrider setup, bouncing like it should, and rolling on three wheels without a single apology. Builder did this one exactly right and every switch hit proves it. One bad mamajama and I mean every word. Go watch it and show some love. 🔥

1925 Dodge ratrod and the builder fabricated an actuator system that lifts this thing clean off the frame like a drag car. Already sick. Then I spotted the Ziplock bag serving as an airbag and lost it completely. Builder solved a problem with what was available and honestly it’s the most brilliant detail I’ve seen on a build in a long time. This thing is wild from front to back. Go watch it. 🔥

Renault set up as a drift car and this builder didn’t come to play. Properly lowered, wide body fabrication, air vents cooling the brakes, and a big motor stuffed in the back seat that nobody can identify but everybody respects. Don’t know what the power plant is but this thing is one bad mamajama. Builder went completely off. Go watch it. 🔥

Orange COE Cab Over Engine truck and younger me would have driven right past this. Older me with better taste stopped cold. Engraved wheels, custom stacks, and a builder who paid attention to every single detail. Growing up changes your taste and this build proves exactly why that’s a good thing. Great job to the builder.

50s short bus and before you laugh just wait. Low to the ground, mean chrome wheels, wide fenders, and an interior the builder went completely off on. This thing turned every assumption upside down and the builder did it on purpose. I would haul some serious ass in this ride and not think twice. Go watch it. 🔥

73 Road Runner with a paint job that took me straight back to Saturday morning cartoons. Traditional Road Runner style with realistic pavement cracks so detailed you have to look twice. Builder didn’t just paint a car they recreated something every one of us grew up loving. Great job on this one. Go watch it and feel something.
