In the last decade, lowriders have roared out of the West Coast and Southwest, popping up on commercials, movies, music videos and hobby store shelves in the form of model kits. Long associated with Hispanic culture, these amazing customs are quickly gaining acceptance among car enthusiasts and the general public. Divided into chapters examining the major types of lowriders-traditional, bombs, trucks, Euros and new age-this all-color, bilingual title features stunning examples of each, emphasizing the painstaking artistic and mechanical ingenuity that goes into the cars. In addition, there's a chapter discussing lowriders overseas, and sidebars examining the phenomenon of lowrider bicycles and the mechanics of hydraulic suspensions. English and Spanish text.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Lowriders (Enthusiast Color) (Paperback)
i liked the book because it mostly tell you what you can do with your cars and i like lowriders so i wanted to learn more about them and i did learn more stuff like how many batteries it needs and if you put your own designs your car can be worth way more money and if you enter in a contest your designs can make you alot of money and I actually learn alot more things and this book can help you learn more stuff about lowriders like i did.
