The owner did not even do it for shows....it was a photo shop by someone....not even the owner.

That looks like a car version of the Jungle Room at Gracelands.

Gah! That so reminds me of the Dralon horrors that some car interiors were modified to in the early 70s! Not a fond memory either.

Apparently this is a thing.



An extract from urban dictionary as to what it is.

Carolina Squat
Rich wannabee rednecks raise the front of their trucks and simultaneously lower the back resulting in a large rake. Also they try fit the biggest tires possible. Usually found in NC/SC and across the south.

It renders the truck completely useless for carrying any weight as well as dangerous because of reduced visibility over the hood and the headlights pointing at the sky. It is arguable that it also reduces the braking ability of the front brakes (the front brakes do most of the brake work on a vehicle) do to a shift in weight toward the rear.

Not "modified" as such but very tacky
No doubt in one of those Facebook groups called "SOLDIERS SHOULD BE PAID THE SAME AS FOOTBALLERS"

She probably works in Lidl.

I did read that but then someone posted a link to the owners Facebook page and he explained that he was shocked to have seen the pictures too.
