Future Donk car?

I hope that the intent here was to turn this into a Donk car because the lift is waaaaayyyy too much: http://uglycarpictures.com/jacked-up-cutlass-supreme/

Looks more like a lowrider with the hydraulics cranked all the way up. You need a lot of stroke to get those bad boys jumping.

Probably someone wanting a flashy car but can't get away from the stock rim mentality so they get a circus wagon looking car instead.

I've never seen an A body donked before. I usually see the mid 80s B/C bodies as a donk.

Donk is more of a specific term. a donk is a 70's impala caprice, a box is a 80s caprice and a bubble is 90s caprice... anything else is basically a car with big wheels.

i know people love to talk about how thats ruining a car but most time the body remains un altered when lifted right. they are preserving the integrity of the body better than most race cars who cut into the sheet metal. I have no problem with big wheel cars and view them as a source of cars for future use/restoration when that fad is dead. lowriders and big wheel car are cared for better than most weekend cruisers. they are so clean you can eat off the frame.
