    NO! This is so sad. This guy and his car was such a legend thanks to the magazine's and Chico and the Man. This man and his family has my prayer's.
     
  3. I saw the "Summer Madness" '63 at the GNRS. That car is badass, and even the best photos don't do justice to seeing that car in person.

    I'm a 47 year old white guy who was born and raised in Kentucky who likes his hot rods loud, low, and fast, but I have a special place for the lowriders. The workmanship and pride in those cars is incredible. I hear guys talking down about them (the lowrider cars), and I just shake my head. They obviously know nothing about craftsmanship and attention to detail.

    Yeah, I agree. I'm not a big fan of 64's (I like 63's and 65's and 59's) but there's no denying the 64 is THE lowrider.
     
  5. When/where/for how long? So many questions:D
     
  6. Really? No lowrider had ever been on T.V. before 1974? It's the first one I remember seeing(and I was really unusual to me), but I was a six year old white kid in the suburbs in '74.

    Yep. Personally, I like the '59s and the Six Twos better myself. But, I have this Six Four, so what do you do?

    Totally.

    man theres just something dear and near to my heart when it comes to these lowriders. could be the obvious amount of effort involved and the attention to detail or that cultural link that lowriders have to their cars that make em just a little different from other genres of car fanatics. (could just be that every so often Ill see a Buick Riviera running in the pack!)

  29. Wow.. 210 Hardtop, it's not the regular ol' 240 Bel Air!
     
  30. I remember the "Low and Loaded" Rivi from Van Nuys in the early 70's @ June Ellens.
