You could call this American excess.  You could call this jingoistic.  Me?  I call them beautiful.  I grew up in Southern California, in the car culture 60's, and my profound appreciation of custom automotive anything continues in the lives of my sons...a topic for another day.  For now, I want to post some awesome pictures of some awesome customized vehicles roaming our streets & car shows.  Some of these photos come from Ohio...the polls say the GOP is losing in Ohio.  I doubt it, if these pics are any evidence of the American spirit there;





















I know these pictures just pi$$ off the tree hugging, anti-capitalistic, global warming moonbats!  They will HATE these pictures, which made it so much more fun to post.  I hope you enjoyed looking at the incredible talent that went into creating these pieces of art & engineering masterpieces as much as I enjoyed posting them.  [hat tip:  Andrea]
