This owner set himself apart and earned a spot on this list by playing up that history, doing his best Doc Brown impression. The DeLorean DMC-12 was famously used in the Back to the Future series to travel through time, and there were actually quite a few DeLoreans that decided to travel to the 2015 Dream Cruise. This Troy, MI police hot rod has tons of style and is one cop car I might not mind being thrown into the back off, just to get a closer look. Seeing this big yellow wonder rolling down the road is just a ton of fun.Įven the police got in on the custom car action. This Ford F-750 packs 330 hp and 725 pound-feet of torque from its diesel powerplant while standing at about 10-feet tall. You’re never too old to have toys and Ford has super sized the classic Tonka dump truck you used to play with in the sandbox. The custom-bodied four seater was housing an entire family, making it the perfect Dream Cruise ride. This custom dune buggy belongs on the streets of Baja, which makes it a unique experience to see it cruising down the street trough a Detroit suburb. We never got a close look at this thing, but its massive stature had it standing out in a crowd of low-slung hot rods. What appears to be a Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) troop transport was out cruising among the lesser vehicles at Woodward, trying to keep them from under its tires. I think they look so ridiculous that you just have to love them. From classic Cadillac’s to a Ford Bronco, there isn’t a car out there that someone hasn’t slapped a set of donks onto. Love them or hate them, ridiculously massive wheels, more affectionally referred to as Donks, are a trend in custom cars right Add on that massive steel bumper with a winch mounted to it and this Power Wagon still looks ready to tackle some tough terrain. Buying a crew cab pickup was certainly not the norm when this truck was new, making these four-door models all the more rare. Mid-1960’s Dodge W200 Power Wagon Crew CabĬlassic trucks are nothing out of the ordinary at the Dream Cruise, but I love seeing these old crew cabs. Best of all, just hang it from the ceiling and you instantly have the world’s largest disco ball! A clear do-it-yourself job, this H2 was providing a great mirror for the cruisers to check out their cars in. Just in case the Hummer H2 was a little too inconspicuous, this owner decided to slather his in chrome. But I'm thinking for now just run the arms and a regular $250 lift spindle.A sunny Saturday set the stage for a fantastic 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise.Ĭars off all sorts arrived along the historic piece of Detroit asphalt to put on a display of V8 muscle and custom creativity that can’t be matched.įrom old to new, rust to chrome, Woodward is a display of machinery that every car enthusiast should try and see at least once.įor your viewing pleasure, we have compiled a list packed with 10 of our favorite cars we saw at Woodward this year. Then I could swap the rear to a cut down new silverado axle. Allowing me to do a six lug knuckle with H3 brakes. The advantage would be it runs a dana 44 hub set up. The maker of the front suspension (c4fabworks) also does a fabricated spindle that I might also use, but the price :-(. Lots of x bracing and cross bracing.Ĥ) light weight front and rear tube bumpers. The lower arms mounted to the bottom for the frame and the uppers at the top of the frame.ģ) a two inch body lift that is actually a stiffening subframe between the body and the frame. Basically lengthen the arms and move the mounts forward and down. The front suspension is the same as a first gen s10.Ģ) the rear a slight redesign of the factory 4 link. I've been looking and brain storming the build in my head mostly.ġ) found a mid/long travel kit for the front end, and use a 3 inch lift spindle.
