BADASS of New England
An automobile club for the enthusiast who enjoys the last of the big GM cars. The rear wheel drive B and D bodys. Chevrolet Impala SS, Caprice, 9C1, Buick Roadmaster, Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, Cadillac Fleetwood
I'm sure everyone knows this, especially with Brian's pics posted before and whatnot, but B-bodies are all over the middle east. I've seen horrific accident footage involving them but this is probably the craziest one. People can't drive over there!

Damn. I hope the guy filming was the driver. But whoever it was, yea, they cant drive. Ive just seen 'em burnt to the ground on the side of the road. But many still do serve as taxi service and family grocery getters. They must put wagon springs in the rear too. They are jacked up with huge gas tanks underneath. The first time I saw one at a VCP, I was like "has to be a bomb"...

A very big waste. Does it have those sexpensive headlamps?
On the other hand, Saudi Caprice SS, Not a waste (I posted this like 2 years ago)

The DGGM is the only color that looks good with euro Altezza style tails IMO

I'd have to agree. But I've only seen them on DGGM and black so it's hard to say. A nice custom silver paint job with them might look pretty sweet.

Ive seen them on just about every color combo you can think of. Even ridiculous donk style $h!t. Gotta say. Its all about the DGGM
Here's another excellent link to an album of wrecked middle eastern American imports. Corvettes even. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/psycho_milt/tags/chevrolet/
Maybe they look good on white too. kind of a reverse "murdered out". clear euros headlights/corners, tails, untouched chrome, machined or chrome rims. Cloud9? Hmmm. If I had a white B body... My aim..

Keep watching those vids and you might see my 1A2's twin. It was shipped to Saudi when the 2 were auctioned off in 1999
