Features Bombs Away-30s & 40s Lowriders?

Very nice pics..

 

The bombs are cool...attention to detail is amazing and the money they spend on chrome and accessories is staggering

 

There is virtually no accessory laden bomb style car culture in Australia, and I think we're the poorer for it - I LOVE these cars! Especially the fact that these guys don't shy away from four door cars the way the other proponants of the rod and kustom scene do.

Every classic more door should be turned into one of these beautiful bombs!
Great thread!

nooch

 

very true about australia, i've got a 50 4 door chevy that i'm toying with ATM

 

I like bombs..

FASTBACK BOMBS & KUSTOMS RULE !!!!!!!!!! Rags

 

i once heard that the only real difference between a low rider and a kustom was the area code.

 

Ill bet you guys dont have any good taco stands over there either! haha

I cant stand 13" daytons, but heres a few of my favorites.

 

From my understanding, there was alot of old iron saved during the 70's just because of the lowrider craze in so-cal. Cars people really didn't want were being transformed into Lowriders by the mexican community....

 

HERE IS MY PRIMOS '32 BUICK IN SAN JOSE CA EARLIER THIS YEAR.

 

A 1941 OLDS......

 

Keep this going..

this is just way to cool ive always like this style

 

Juan, that loco 46 is really cool. It has alot more custom feel than Bomb feel to it. Do you know if there were many rides with that custom style in the old days?

Here are some shots I took a few years ago at a San Jose show.

 

Love this thread!!!!

 

Another favorites... Joe Epstein's 1939.. super clean..

THE BIGGER THE TIRE THE HARDER TOO LAY 13 INCHER ARE CHEATING

 

One of the many things that makes Mike Tovars car so cool is that he lays it on spokes bigger than 13's...
