    So very glad this video has resonated so well with so many of you who have come to see it. I appreciate all the love and comments shared here. I’m sure the men in the video appreciate it as well. Looking to make more content like this in 2024.

    I was a member of three top tier E.L.A car clubs in the late 60's and early 70's. I "chopped" cars, "channeled" them, "dropped" them. cut holes in the A arms for lift cylinders, modified the upholstery and suspensions as a personal preference. It was not until I left the club scene and started noticing these same cars stock in the movie studios and the Hollywood movies that I come to realize, why did I fuck with perfection? I and my club friends believed that different was better, was it really? A great, fresh paint job and new original design upholstery on a stock bomba is the most beautiful sight. but... it's all about personal preference. and on recovery, well, often times concentrating on other things can help but the fucken "gusanito" is just one layer below the surface and keeps bumping trying like hell to resurface. Best wishes Carnales.

    Beautiful automobile's and it is great to be sober. It took a stroke at49 to sober me up I'm peralized on the whole left side of my body but I'm alive and sober

      I'm sure all of this is on my horizon, I've been in recovery for about 4 yrs and I'm still amazed that I can get out of bed without being high on something, all I can say is that as of now I'm sober and enjoying the vato that I've become. Stay positive and keep cruising.

    Outstanding! Absolutely outstanding! Fantastic videography and colour grading. This the standard I'd like to get my videos to.

      I shoot on Sony and my picture profile is HLG-3. I’m only converting the clips to Rec709 and they automatically have this film look that I prefer. It’s the same when I shoot weddings. People always think I’m using LUTS and color grading.

      Keep up the good fight, I tried to explain that to my friend but he always thought he knew better, jail didn’t work rehab didn’t work but for some reason he was able to find his own place and is now 8 years in his new life and he tells me he has more money than ever even with a lower income. I wish my little brother had been able to get his life together but sadly he didn’t

    Fabulous short video of a group of guys that obviously have been through some ‘stuff’ together and come out the other side, and enjoying their neat old Chevy (1 Pontiac) bombs. Enjoy life together guys!
