That black 55 is awesome. Found some other projects by that builder.

Scott Sullivan! That cheez-wheez yellow car might be his most famous build as it was the subject of a Hot Rod story back in the pro-street heyday where it was driven basically cross-country, running 10s in both extremes. Remember, this was at a time when nobody in the hot rodding world had seen a fuel injection manifold. I'm thinking 1987 or so.

The really bitchin' thing is that he still has the car and it is exactly as it was when that happened, which is awesome if you ask me. So many pro-street cars got rebuilt into something else when the trend faded, that seeing such an important car for the era still looking the part is really cool.

I really like the Henry J he did a few years ago. That car is clean.

Looks like the Sport version with the Duster body

Yep, it is a Dart Sport. They also had an older Demon front clip, but ended up not installing it.

At stock height, the Challenger looks almost bad. Lowered, though... oh my god. So mean. Saw this one at a show:

May as well post this; same event:

From a Ford show I went to this summer:

And here I thought: "At least I'm unlikely to see anything from Stancenation in this thread."

That's...different. I'd love to see detail of the paintwork (lace?), but having just read the story behind it, it seems unlikely I ever will.

Wow, that truly is wild!

I just don't understand the appeal of excessively lowered vehicles, regardless of how their lack of altitude is acquired. Frankly, with very few exceptions, it's even too low if I can't touch the top of the tire without bending my fingers.

And then there's the whole "patina" thing; I have the nagging suspicion that last truck (but is it really even a truck anymore?) was bought in reasonable condition and subsequently "crappified."

ZL1s are such sleepers. No stripes or engine call-outs, steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps. Super cool.

Apparently this is a lowrider Camaro of sorts, old picture at that too. Awesome.

The only pony cars I actually like, and I actually prefer the second generation (as above) with its ridiculous fenders.
