We present results of observations of two BL Lac objects, 0735+178 and 0723–008, with the European VLBI Network (EVN) at 1.7 GHz. These objects have a distorted morphology, characterized by a large misalignment between their inner and outer radio structures. Our EVN observations at intermediate resolution reveal the presence of a highly curved jet in 0735+178, providing evidence for continuity of the radio emission from milliarcsecond to arcsecond scales. No indication of connecting radio structure is found in the case of 0723–008.
