To go "really" old school, my boss had a black 85 Supra with Enkie "92's", black with deep polished lip. This was actually in 1985! That car would still be cool today.

My dad had staggered wheels and a header on his 71 Corolla. That was 30 years ago. Mom had a 71 Datsun 510 wagon, but it was stock.
hey your not gonna believe this but my buddy has an 84 Black with those same Enkei 92's Black with a polished Lip except this is 2004 and hes got a mean 7mgte under the hood ill post a pic in a few.http://www.celicasupra.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12328
Here are the pics they arw about halfway down the page. Oh and hes local he live near Busch Gardens.

Though I just recently bought this car, this car is basically unchanged (except the boost was lowered) from 2 owners ago.

So there you go, A Datsun, louvers, and as a bonus...sheetmetal hood scoops!

I'm probably in there somewhere as well, we would all go down there with the Yonkes and Cory. Ask him about the time we went down the in the Cadillac and the video when we got there after everyone was sleeping, we called from the lobby and told them we were lost and were about an hour away, about 2 minutes after that nobody was sleeping anymore
