Cool

It was a time for an annual tuning car show here in my hometown Kajaani: Backwoods Cruising!
Organized by a local tuning club: Backwoods Customs.

Kajaani is a little town in the middle of Finland with its 38.000 residents. So as you can guess, it's quite hillbilly stuff that's going on here everyday ! But this tuning car show is a happening that gathers lots of people together from the Kainuu province to goggle these coulourful, strange and loud cars. 300 meters/yards from my home !

I joined the other natives and took my camera with me. There was approximately 50-60 cars in the show and most of them represented the typical vehicles you see around here. But there were some nice ones too. The cars are mostly actually from somewhere else than Kajaani. Too bad the car owners don't seem to know much about caring their paint .

Here you are :

The first three are my colleagues' cars .

Chopped MINI!

hahahaaaa I like that murdered out Lada hahahahaa - I wonder if it just naturally faded to that color... actually, prolly not - no way a Lada's paint can fade without rusting through

and yeah, deifnitely some hot "bikage" going on there buuuuuuddy

so let me guess, after the show everyone went to cruise the main street? Wish I could've been there...
