#lowriders

Lowrider cars are more than vehicles sitting close to the pavement. They combine automotive engineering, Chicano history, hydraulic suspension, wire wheels, candy paint, pinstriping, murals, custom upholstery, chrome, engraving, cruising, car clubs, family, and community.

I filmed some incredible lowriders and custom cars at the Uniques Car Club Show, including classic American cars, hydraulic builds, show-quality paint, detailed interiors, custom wheels, chrome, and one-of-a-kind craftsmanship.
