While some people think donk is a vastly applied term, surrounding everything with humongous wheels and lively hues, the truth is that it only revolves around two models: the Chevrolet Caprice and Impala, which were made from 1971 to 1976.
Such a ride could set you back pennies on a dollar if you're not afraid of elbow grease and are patient enough to do it on your own. However, depending on the overall state, you might end up investing a small fortune in the restoration project, as we're talking about a ride that's roughly 50 years old. Therefore, it requires a lot of attention inside and out and under the hood.
On the opposite end, there are those copies that look showroom fresh. Some of them feature more modern firepower and some fresh tech amenities to make them more appealing. And everyone likes a nice restomod, even if it features oversized alloys, right? If such a car is on your shopping list, that means that you're ready to pay a lot of money for it, as they usually change hands for six digits, and that's the only drawback.
As for the one pictured above, it is a 1971 Chevrolet Caprice, and we should replace pictured with rendered. It came to life via photo editing, making its way to social media a few hours ago. It was signed by 412donklife, the same user who has given us tons of similarly-modified rides from modern machines to old-timers like this bowtie model, and you can tell that if it was real, then it would have cost a lot of money. That's because everything was taken care of, hence the new-like overall condition.
On the outside, it wears a beautiful red finish that was applied to all body panels. Found at the front, sides, and rear, the usual chrome accents provide contrast and contribute to the shiny look. This car sports a white rag top that was digitally folded down behind the seats, allowing us to take a look at the interior. And as you can imagine, it has white leather wrapped around most touchable parts. There is also a touch of red on the inside, and we can see it on the steering wheel that kind of replicates the pattern of the wheels.
And it is the alloys that make it stand out further. Wearing Forgiato center caps, they probably measure almost 30 inches in diameter, and we think the pattern doesn't really suit the looks of the Caprice. We don't have to tell you how such a mod would ruin the driving comfort and the turning radius of any vehicle, do we? But that doesn't matter here, as what is important is if you dig the spec or not. We do, for the most part, so where do you stand on that?
