Quick Shot: Abe’s E30
It’s not normal for our significant other to support our hobbies that include spending countless of thousands of dollars on modifying our car that is usually used to get from point A to point B..
In Abe’s case his ex-girlfriend made him look for an older car to buy and play with rather than a new car that he would get bored of quickly. The car’s intended purpose was to be a daily driver but no matter how much self control we have we will always modify it.

Like how most of us start out, we do the small things and plan on leaving it and just cruising it. But that spiraled out of control into what you see now where nearly everything has been replaced or rebuilt for the better. Leading into whats in front of you, a show worthy street cruiser.
Such a timeless combination for E30’s, the Gotti’s are just perfection.
