Low and slow is not really my thing but after living in the SF valley and getting to know some pretty cool peeps at the car shows in the parks there, I'd have to say that is one wicked ride....
I would've gone with a different interior color scheme (that one is a bit painful) but dayum, you have to admire the workmanship and ingenuity of the creator on this one

If you are going to "pimp" a ride, that car is by far the coolest version of that particular style I have ever seen. The work is flawless. I would never drive the thing, but you have to give credit where credit is due. A lot of time and money went into that car and the attention to detail is also flawless. Again, not my cup of tea, but someone knows their way around interior and trim work. P.S. This post is not meant to be a ruse, I really meant what I typed!

I was riding behind a similliar vehicle on a one lane country road, the driver and passenger rode with their heads out of the window watching the ground and had to ride slow and stopped at literally every bump in the road. I was able to pass him approaching a stop light. While at the stop light he pulled next to me and said "Yours is nice, but you ain't got one of these". I just laughed at him and put up my window.

There have been worse on this board. Not my thing but the candy apple red looks kinda nice.
Color is nice, pin striping is a little much for me. Interior, eeehhhh, not too shabby. I would drive it, but I'd take Gucci Vic off the back unless my name was either Gucci or Vic. Engine bay is clean. I would actually give this a thumbs up. Not by much, but still, up.

I thought it looked pretty straight but then my OCD kicked in and that crooked drivers side headlight is just bugging me now..

I must say, someone is going to lose their but on this one! Just goes to show that "your" taste differs from everyone elses. It is way too easy to go WAY overboard on customs, if you have the money to lose then great. Trying to envision different color combos i'd have to say the work done was top notch.
There is however a very good thing about what has transpired here with this car, notice I no longer call it MM, Mine just shot up in value once again. For that I would like to sincerely say thank you.
One more thing, why is your wheels, i'm sorry "rims", such a big deal for most "big rimmers"? I mean really, why the badging, or all the others out there with the big 22, 24, 28, 56, 102, ETC on the fenders? The most we ever did back in the day to advertise what we had was a little sticker on the rear or side rear glass such as Cragar SS.

Did a bad job with the vents, I would have put trim rings in there painted the same as the exterior radio install looks crappy too. What is up with the Minivan TV and generic visors, could have done the head rests for less. Don't like the wheels, name on it, or the knock off Gucci Fabric. Do something that will tie in with your exterior.
I do like the fuel door, the pin striping isn't bad, like the understated Engine bay but you can't beat chrome and more matched paint under the hood. I would have covered the dash but painted the areas he put fabric over on the dash and got some tint you live in Florida. That fake Gucci is going to fade quick.
I dig low riders, always have. I would love to do an old 70s Lincoln. Like and old school Mark V or Town Coupe in Midnight Metallic Blue, Old School Wires Rims, Plush Interior, scraping the ground, or hopping around. Loved them as a kid because it really can be an art form. Always wanted to build one. I will do at least one but its gotta be old school with modern muscle and tech in it.

Couple comments. 1) when you put those huge wheels on, can it really be a low rider, even when it's lowerd it still looks normal height. 2) This is where everyone looks at me like an idiot for my ignorence, but when was it that they made the Gucci edition? Where was I ?

Sorry to say, another TOTALED DTR. Who ever buys it needs to be a Gucci and Vic...

It's just a CV, no big deal. Most of those cars are driven into the ground as taxi's, so at least this one gets to enjoy some level of owner pride, ghetto or otherwise. I kind of like it, in a, that's rediculous sort of way.

Imagine investing the loot that it obviously took to build that ride only to discover that others think that it's only worth $5,700.00 bucks.

I'd hae to say...I'm glad this project was done to a vehicle of unlimited supply rather than a limited run Marauder....anyway...its fun to look at, kinda like a party for my eyeballs! HA!
