ok ladies and gents, let's see those dd rides, i dont think we've had one of these for a while, so i figured i'd kick one up. plus, with my new addition, i can now say i officially own a beater.

ok, well, i guess i'll go first. haggled down from $1200 to $500 and now sporting about 185hp worth of stickers, heres my 93 lumina:

Pretty much all my vehicles get DD duty at one point or another. The summer is split between the Stang and the bike (when it's running).

In the winter I drive my '89 K1500, which was my first vehicle.


That Lumina is badass btw.

In da sig. '99 Buell X1 Lightning. In case you don't know what a Buell is, it's a company that works with Harley to build sport style bikes powered by built Harley Sportster motors. They're not extremely fast, but mine should be around 110hp and 100ft lbs to the wheel now, so it's enough to mess with 600s, especially out of the hole.

Damn i wish the fender molds on my Cherokee were still black. I even tried Mothers Back To Black the other day but it didn't help much, just turned them a darker grey. I think i'm gonna get some pocket style cutout flairs soon.

Yeah that's my next step...just paint them and be done with it. I'll probably do that until i get a lift on it and the fender flairs. The flairs look a bit stupid without big mudders on it.

lol people must not know the definition of a beater. None of these cars are beaters except carbed's car. I wish I had a pic of my 5 spd escort with an axe through the roof. We tried to kill the damn thing but it wouldnt die, ended up going to the junk yard. I have lots of video ramming that thing into guardrails and taking it off jumps. It was a beast...
