Not really.

Plain is good too.
That was what his customer wanted.

Uh... just because they're painted black doesn't mean they are PLAIN. Far from it.

Agreed 100%! It's not plain, it's classy. That black one is beautiful! That red flamed one doesn't look right at all.

Danny and Eric got me thinking about STANCE in Danny's GNRS thread. Some rather cocky, but true statements were made regarding the cars built in this state. I couldn't agree more. I am not into cars that "lay gnarly frame, bro....!!!" and the sort of thing mini truckers jizz on.

Over on my club's msg board, there's a fantastic thread on Tri-5' customs and today's pics will reflect most of that thread as well as STANCE. Proper stance. Remember, folks - NO STANCE AT ALL is not stance at all. Cars that sit on their rockers were built back in the day for sure. No doubt about it. So, in a way I can see how period-correct or even better - period-possible stance includes laying frame; However, they always look "broken" to me and they have no soul, no character.....I don't buy it. I recently took the air suspension off my Oldsmobile to do something else. The results gave it some real stance and soul.

These cars for today will epitomize stance. Enjoy.

a little high for my tastes, but a very, very nice custom; nonetheless!
