To be honest, I don’t know the exact history but I’d love to learn. I just know when I was a kid, my parents used to take us to Pensacola and other parts of Florida every year. We’d always see them donks out and about. My pop was pointing them out to me way back in 95/96, and telling me how “them Florida boys be having they cars all done up”.
Yeah, I always wondered shyt like who was the original manufacturer of them big rims they was putting on them cars like how swangaz come from the 83 & 84 model spokes off the Cadillac Eldorado which were originally manufactured by Cragar, which was basically the birth of the slab culture in TX.
Flordia cats say Donks go back to the early 70s.
