Lowriders

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Groucho, Aug 3, 2009.

  1. This Impala was in a heavy metal music video(escapes me which group and an all that). My friend Marks younger brother, Greg bought it off Epay in the (late?) 90's. Had problems with the bags, so he sold it to help pay for college. Cool to see it again.

    it's in Weird Al's "White & Nerdy" video as well. I guess this car turned out to be a music video slut :p

    This is a very cool thread, gracias !!!
    I had a '63 Impala & a '64, both were SS's. in 1976. Wish I had my '63. They were not lowriders but they were low enough. I recently found a set of Tru-Spoke rims that i'm going to use on my '63 Chevy II wagon after being inspired by a number of Nor Cal Nova bros, namely, 1badnov's. I'll post photos when I get the tires & wheels on. I'm hoping the Bellflower style will look good.

    Aloha, Ric

    53choptop, your brother's fleet and the black 42 were my favorite cars at the show. RGV Viejitos have some really nice rides.

    Yeah the Viejitos RGV chapter has some really cool cars. Its a family thing for all of us, that impala you see in the picture I use to own back in high school, the 53 in my avatar, i have also had since high school, the fleetline my brother has had for several years too, if you can believe it that car use to be a chicken coupe, he brought it back to life. Several of the Viejitos RGV members are brothers and cousins.

    I am working on getting a chapter up and going here in Austin, unfortunately can't seem to get the bombs out of hiding. I am posibly looking at starting a Viejitos Custom Chapter since Austin is more geared towards customs that lolo's.

    Hey man whenever you are in Austin, let me know and we can cruize!!

    I haven't quite figured out what mine is... Not really a low rider, per say, but certainly low.

    Here is my car and my setup. I just finished swapping out the straight 6 for a v8. Went with 2 pumps and 4 dumps. I had lowriders in Hawaii & Cali so hitting the switches is nothing new. I have not decided on wheel choice yet. May just paint these and roll the way it is. Looking forward to the Roundup next weekend.
