Nice looking continental kit. I like the color combination a lot. The design is a little too complex for my taste.

Re: Next project 95 fleetwood frame off take 2

I'm just curious, why are the luxury/large cars prime target for lowriding? Cadillacs, Lincoln towncars, etc. They're rather large and seem to have a generation gap. Are there any lowrider Mustangs, Chevelles, LeSabres, or even stuff like Civics, or Galants? I'm not trying to be rude, but how come lowriders are the huge "little old lady cars" so many times? I mean, I see so many Fleetwood lowriders, but never any Buick Electra or Century lowriders

Re: Next project 95 fleetwood frame off take 2

Oh, that I did not know. Thanks. But are you saying smaller cars don't have frames? Or they're just not removable/alterable?

American rear RWD full frame cars are the most desirable, there is others but mustangs , chevelles and lesabres are not popular, imports are not either, they were in the late 80s early 90s but not anymore.

Re: Next project 95 fleetwood frame off take 2

They don't have, they are unibodies, the body and frame are one in the same. Good and bad, they have advantages and drawbacks.....

They are getting stiffer, but you are paying for it in ride and noise too. Go ride in a newer unibody car down a noisy road, and then do it in a full frame Cadillac.... Now you know why those people keep driving in the left lane..... Noise and harshness....
