This is one of the most incredibly diverse car events I’ve ever gone to. Donks, low riders, Japanese cars, old VWs, rat rods, it was all there cruising up and down the street. The selection was just awesome.

Kinja'd!!!

One of my favorites was this early Civic. So nice on those wheels.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

This event was also full of cars that I don’t personally like, but can definitely appreciate the work that went into them.

Kinja'd!!!

Love the wheels on this Golf.

Kinja'd!!!

Speaking of appreciating the work...

Kinja'd!!!

Not at all my style, but unbelievably well built.

Kinja'd!!!

This S13 was gorgeous.

Kinja'd!!!

The S14 truly takes the cake for me though. So amazingly clean.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

GRAND NATIONAL!!!!!!! He did a quick pull up the street later that night and it sounded amazing.

Kinja'd!!!

This FD was incredible. Under 50,000 original miles, and the perfect amount of quiet mods.

Kinja'd!!!

The police made this guy drop his car back down when he was parked up on 3 wheels.

Kinja'd!!!

A great selection of classic vans showed up as well.

Kinja'd!!!

This 4X4 van was one of my favorites.

Kinja'd!!!

The interior of another van. CARPET EVERYWHERE! So cool.

Kinja'd!!!

I love that exhaust.

Kinja'd!!!

The matching interior was pretty cool too.

Kinja'd!!!

A very nice Continental.

Kinja'd!!!

Mini truckin’. Bonus donk in the background.

Kinja'd!!!

A matte black hood just perfected the look on this one.

Kinja'd!!!

This was something else. The owner is the one dressed in all white and went up and down the street blasting MJ.

Kinja'd!!!

Insanity in an awesome way.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

I love this Celica too.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Why yes, sir, that is a Kewl 64.

Kinja'd!!!

There were quite a few 94-96 Impala SSs there too, all very clean. My favorite was a mint, mostly stock, burgundy 96 that I somehow missed getting a picture of.

Kinja'd!!!

Crusher Camaro replica?

Kinja'd!!!

Very very nice.

Kinja'd!!!

Some of the donks rolling up and down the street. Quite a spectacle to behold.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

A couple of these guys were throwing sparks. Pretty damn cool.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

So, so cool.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

My god, that hood. So much work went into this.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

There was no shortage of classic Chevys there.

Kinja'd!!!

Speaking of.....badass.

Kinja'd!!!

Quite a chop on this one.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

CLEAN!!!!

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Plate reads: “Haf Ton”

Kinja'd!!!

Spotted at a CVS on the street: Totally stock Z32

Kinja'd!!!

A buddy brought out his freshly-painted 360.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Das vagon!!!! One of my favorites. The diesel front fender was a nice touch too.

Kinja'd!!!

Speaking of awesome wagons...

Kinja'd!!!

Dat poke!

Kinja'd!!!

For the air cooled fans out there.

Kinja'd!!!

Love the patina on this one.

Kinja'd!!!

Nice plate placement.

Kinja'd!!!

On a side street. So minty.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

And now for something completely different.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Ride the short bus!

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

And last but not least, a fantastic four door.

Because that’s how the owner wanted to build it? It’s a nice car.

I actually wonder how many stock S14s are left that haven’t been ruined.

Man, I wish we had a good cruise night on a regular basis up here. Great stuff.

It’s not like stock S14s were some spectacular car. They were a slowish economy coupe with a good chassis. There’s a reason they’re all modified.

True, but they’re still a dying breed. Like, stock Supras.


Kinja'd!!! Dsscats > jkm7680

But the S14 is for a good reason. The Supra TT was a damn good performance car stock. The S14 was nothing close to that.

Well, performance mods are something else because they actually enhance the car.

Stancing a car just makes it look strange and handle like a Conestoga wagon.

50/50 on this as a whole. Some of these are pretty terrible.

For the most part yes. I don’t know about that first Charger though, it just looks like somebody got loose with a vacuuform machine.
