Here in the East Bay (SF area) they call these cars "scrapers." I guess it's because you can't hit a bump or even steer the car without the tires scraping on the wheel house. The other day at a gas station I saw a mid-90's Buick with this treatment -- the tangerine metalflake paint and the 22" rims -- and on the windshield in six inch vinyl letters are the words "Scrappers Forever." That's right, "Scrappers," with two p's.

Apparently they're not hooptys anymore -- now they're "donks". It even says so on their website.

...or it could also be a "whip".

Whatever it's refered to as, it still looks like a big pile of to me.

I haven't see too many Donks here in Socal but on a recent trip to Chicago I found these gems at the Volo Auto Museum.

You're welcome, Reen.


After all that, the rear end still sags. I'm guessing there is at least 1 burned down car or stripped out car sitting on cinder blocks within a 5 block radius of this thing.

Oh no. It is the responsibility of the nearest StangNetter to seek out and rescue that poor pony. I'm not sanctioning or supporting car theft in any way, shape, or form.....just sayin'....

I believe the Monster GT-40 was build by a group of local guys for the show "Monster Garage"
