The early 70's full size Chevy's that urbanites customize with (usually) candy paints with +/-24 inch rims with lifted bodies/suspensions.

Kind of like the old lowriders, but in reverse.

Buddy,

You`ve been retired way too long.....head up to Harlem and you`ll certainly spot a Donk.

You've got Donks, Boxes and bubbles. A box is the squared years..bubbles are the 90's

You need to catch up on &quot;Pimp my ride&quot;........

Does that thing still qualify as a classic chevy? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Btw, the definition of &quot;donk&quot; as Urbandictionary has is as follows...

Back in the day you used to get find if the bumper was too low. What about now?


Delaware is tough on vehicles like that. I've only seen one in the past 5 years and I haven't seen that one around for a while now. Same thing for all the little goofy cars with the fart cans (Honda, Cavalier, Neon etc.) with the big wings and ground effects. Use to be all over the place too, now there isn't a single one to be found.
