Wow that's super clean... Looks like you could eat off the undercarriage. 👍

I don't really know anything about low riders, is it bagged or hydraulics? Going to be able to tricycle it?

Low riders aren't my style but I still think they're pretty cool.

I definitely want to see pics or video of it doing it's thing. Did you have to brace the frame up to do that? I'd imagine so or it would twist a hell of a lot.

Edit: nevermind I went back and looked at the picks again, you definitely seriously beefed up the frame. Looks really good.

You put a lot of work into that car. It is neat seeing what it takes to build a car like that.

I agree. We definitely need more lowrider build pics.

So, what made the jumps in preferred body styles? My whitebread @$$ only sees the late 40-early 50s, early 60s, the the G body jump.... what gives?
