- The season 1 finale of Lowrider Roll Models features the story of our very own Editor-in-Chief, Joe Ray.
Upon graduating high school, Joe was granted a full scholarship for a Commercial Arts program at a local university. It was the things dreams were made of, and art was what he breathed and lived for, so for him it was good news. From color palette to form and function, art brought forth a new sense of passion for our featured guest, but of course, life had other plans for him.

I can't be the only one crying. So heartfelt!!!
This was a story about lowriders, not about the sad story of joe ray......
Your not the only one. The story is spreading the love, honor, and respect we learned to everyone and everything we do in life.
Your not
So much respect to Joe Ray for all he's done for the lowriding culture. I'm a proud owner of a slammed 64 Bell Air on wires.
after seeing this, it inspired me to go back and to build my dream lowrider, I'm 30 years old and I lost my way, I forgot how great it feels to be a a Lowrider, I have a 1973 Buick riviera and a1947 fleetmaster, I'm going home to day after work and tell my Dad let's build a car, I loved this video
Danny Moreno where are you from?
Peet Erson I'm from a small town called Earlimart California and I'm a welder I could almost build anything out of metal
Danny Moreno you should sell me ur fleetline im still young i'll fix her up, shes just gonna rot if you keep her in ur garage all ur life. and make me a gun, i'll buy that too
Peet Erson what kind of lowrider you have?
Danny Moreno im only 15, I dont have a car yet
Man I wish I can sit back in a chair , pop open a beer and just listen to his stories about life & Lowriders. 🙌🏼🤙🏼🤝
These stories really move me, the struggle, the heartbreak, the passion and the LOVE! Thank you Joe & Lowrider magazine I hope I can pass the love for the Lowrider culture on to my children. #LIVINLOWLIFE!
I can’t get enough of these videos....... Soooo inspiring. I Will have my 64 impala lowrider one day
I remember when Joe Rey came to the Super Show in L.A. and his Lincoln Continental won best Paint and that was 25 years ago Candy red over a Silver base and it was beautiful and that day was when I introduced myself to him and begin to Paint Cars for a living....✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
WOW! RIGHT ON !!
HE GOTS SOME ARTISTIC SKILLZ !!
RIGHT?
PROPS TO YOU.RESPECTS.
This is a heart warming video I really enjoyed it
Just found this channel from listening to Brock's music on SoundCloud - amazing work and as a car fanatic, it's like visual porn 🔥🔥
My brother in law worked for low rider magazine back in the day when Sonny Madrid ran the show
Lowriders really handle any classic car carefully and they live with herself thru family tree.
why dont anyone have videos of building a lowrider like these foo's have hotrod builds and shit yall stay building and rebuilding these cars why not document the actual build so more people can learn and understand the concept and maybe learn how to perfect the hydraulic systems so that we never have issues with blowing something on the streets come on yall can put all the money and time into it but only certain people know how to build a good lowrider not a damn model
Just got my first 1960 impala i cant wait to see wait to see what i create
Love Joe Ray's story, watched it more than once. Such an inspirational background not only for lowriding, but for life. God Bless you Joe!
I can Relate To Ray And His Story , reminds me of me and My Mom & Dad In more than A Few Ways . Ray is A Legend In The Lowrider World God Bless Him And all of his endeavors I’m Inspired by Him ✊
"DRESSED 2 KILL"
1 BAD ASS
LOW RIDER! PROPS ON THAT!!
Lifestyle car club are legends in the lowridering game-period. I got into in lowridering in 92 and started buying magazine's every since. And it is my dream one day to finally own a lowrider. I want to spend $15 to $60 thousand on a car and enjoy every bit of it. But lowridering has a sad part about it. Everybody can't afford to spend $15,000-$100,000 on a car and that creates, "JEALOUSY". Some people are only in it for the popularity and want to be noticed. Some people want to just make a lot of money off of it. All of this hurt's lowridering so bad and it directs it into a bad direction. Lowridering is a hobby not a show or glamour-effect-facts. People are in love with these cars and they use these cars to have fun with their families and friends. Lowridering is about respect for themselves,others and the whole community. And it is sad that you have a bunch of ediot's that try to "fuck it up for everybody". It suck's and I'm just trying to keep it real. Let me give a shout out to lifestyle legendary cars like Twilight and Alladin. Lifestyle Car Club still remains on top of lowridering to this very day,since 1992-FACTS. You don't know, you better ask somebody!!!

I've known of Joe Ray for most of my life, but this video has given me a new respect and appreciation for everything he has done for the sport of lowriding. True inspiration and definitely a role model. 😎
Joe is a true role model!!! Love this video it’s very heart felt!!
Thank you for sharing your story and it has helped me to realize I can do it. You helped me to believe in me again. Thank you for being a great mentor for all of us. God bless you and keep you.
FIRMES!!!🏆✌🙏
Tears flood my eyes with your story. It made me think of my baby brother with the alter boy to the low rider. I miss him so much. One day we’d be cruising his low rider truck and later on him big lifted truck.Joe Ray you really are an amazing man.
GREAT INTERVIEW 🙌🏾💯🙌🏼
I’m Afghan I gotta 64 lowlow ! Lowrider originated in Cali streets where it’s diverse, not in Mexico ! It’s a Straight WestCoast homie style.
It’s a family thing, for everyone !
Great video
Love these lowrider roll model videos and really enjoyed your story Joe. Great car and an awesome story 👏🏼 😎
That was amazing Joe I'm happy for that you have accomplished your dreams and continue too set new goals
Growing up in a town that was the home of Loco 64 it was hard to root for another car but i always liked the Las Vegas car, the years you both went head to head were epic and oh how times have changed. Watching this makes me miss the friendships I've made over the years it's time to re-visit them
Hell that intro first time I saw it gave me goosebumps
That 1968 Eldorado is incredible.. damn
My uncle DANNY HERNANDEZ R.I.P. passed away, and he was a member of LIFESTYLE, I want to know what to do with his plaque, I met you JOE RAY, we went to a bar and after that went to the taco truck, I was 15 years old, I need to know the rules and regulations of what to do with the plaque
So your telling me he’s not Mexican???????????dog bless America 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
So why did lifestyle break up yo?
they didn't break up, some members left the club, Lifestyle is still around.
Cuauhtemoc City still around
JoeRey I remember when I was in high school < Garfield High Class of 82 > I used to have a 64 Impala. I use to cruise Whittier Blvd man those were the good old day's. I tell the youngsters of today that I grew in a time that Lowriding was accepted. When music was music. I was Approach by buy a member of Technique's car club. They would meet at Anthony Loya's parking lot on Wednesday night its funny how other car clubs would cruise by in regular car and take pictures of your rides and speed off sometimes the Sargent of arms would roll out and try to catch them.. There was so much competition out there that you had to step it up. I remember when Lifestyle would meet up at the mobile station on Atlantic and Beverly. I had a friend named Herbie who was from lifestyle he cruised in a Lincoln Continental Joe Rey. Sadly my 64 Impala was taken out by a drunk driver. My next ride was 71 Chevelle. I went from low and slow to speed but ended back with fixing a Mini Truck and joining up with < Just for Looks > we had the older truck style Toyota's and Datsun's before they changed to Nissan. When I was President of the Club we were approached by Councilman Richard Alattoye to hold car washes and even a Car Show at Wilson high school in El Serreno to raise money for Christmas gifts for the needy children of East LA and Boyle Heights. Wow what great times we had with other truck clubs. JoeRey do you remember when you had to register your club name with the council that meet up at Lake lake and see other clubs kicking back having Bar BQs and showing off their rides. Great Times by for now. I really like the Lowrider Garage series keep up the the great work JoeRey.
Idk y. My love for the lowriders is crazy. I don't have one but I plan to. My dream lowrider is a beautiful blue 63 impala ss convertible, 13 inch 72 spoke rims, fender skirt, blue white under glow, black interior. But lil by lil I'll get there eventually, hopefully sooner then later. But for right now im excited to say that my dad has a friend whose mom is trynna get rid of her 92 caprice and she might sell it to me. Like at this point it's not a question of "if" but "when". I already got a mental blueprint of the car. But I wanna get into pinstipping and all those kinda of things bc they look cool and even if I'm not good at it rn I wanna practice so ill get better. Lowriders is and will forever be my life and my culture.
My brother had a El Dorado like that and it had a custom green paint job, back in the 70’s before hydraulics and air bags. My brother put 100 lbs bean sacks in the trunk as my dad owned a Mexican food distribution Co. I have a custom low rider 41 Buick and a custom low rider 62 Continental Lincoln.
To be successful you have to success in succeeding.. To have success in succeeding you have to be successful in finding success.. To be successful in finding success is 100% up to you.. Having a vision faith passion patience and really believing in yourself is only the beginning.. When you are able to combine all of it together, others will see that. Some will do everything they can to ruin hurt and destroy you; while others will accept love appreciate and try to out do you.. Just remember: when it's time to shine you're gonna shine like a diamond in the sun.. I wish everyone nothing but the best on their journey to being successful.. God bless
Much respect to you brother and the rides youve built. Maybe one day you can judge my lowrider

Alright nice story.
Real talk n Well said.....
I remember when your club became a club.. I remember seeing them on Hubbard and Bradshaw. I was one of the first ones to do custom paint on my 63 SS with crush velvet interior, truck and under the hood. That car was painted in a garage on Indiana and Olympic by James in tangerine gold pearl with flaked sides and top.. the first to also have a miniature Muriel on the trunk of an island with flying birds also in pearl's. The paint used was aircraft which I believe is called emeron. My favorite was my 66, was a hell of a hopping machine.. hydros I did myself in my garage, cut outs done at Atlantic mufflers on Atlantic, I was the first to do machine cups and donuts machined at funeral casket foundry on 3rd and Eastern, hero lines were copper water pipes to never bust as hoses did in those days done my my dad. All hydro parts we got in Pico Rivera off of Norwalk Blvd and Slauson. I was the first to use truck 3 quarter ton coils to hop which other didn't know I was using to beat them.. memories... lol... never did another low rider after 75 caprice which I got from Jones Chevrolet in Whittier.. there lots of other cars between my 63 and the caprice.. we used to be escorted out of uptown as that was hot rod territory.. out of Monterey Park from Andy's pool hall... memories memories lol.. I still had 69 impala that's sat for nearly 25 years I got from a lady in Fullerton.. one of a kind copo which is why I've done nothing to it.... anyhow.. your 68 is nice.. simple and clean.. of course I do know who has a FB 68 in showroom condition thats been parked for nearly 40 years..
RAZA You make me so Proud ! Keep God , Family , Country 🇺🇸 an Lowriding close to the Corazon !!!
I love the las vegas car u have

Joe I'm not sure if you will read this but I've considered you a roll model since the 80s . I'm now mid 40s and enjoyed the video. Still I consider you a great roll model for myself. Thank you
Mr. Ray I just want to say thanks for sharing your story. I have only been reading LRM for about 20 years or so, but I will tell you "Dressed to Kill' and The "Vegas" car were both some of the most influential cars of my past. I have a '79 T-Bird and I honestly picture your Vegas car when I look at it. Thanks for being a "role model" and keep up the good work with LRM. Peace.
That’s a nice 68 impala SS,my dad had one back when he was lowriding he passed away last November, I wanna build one just like my dads
and your a Raider fan , atta boy !!!!!
Just now seeing this. The '68 El Dorado is SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK! MY god, that car is...WOW! Great video.
I have a '79 Thunderbird lowrider and I can say Dressed to Kill was the car I remember impressing me the most when I began reading the magazine. Mr. Ray keep up the good work.
This video really made me think a lot of what my purpose was to even live this lifestyle. I’ve dedicated my life to the children of my community for the last 20 years and I’m still doing it today. That will never change. Congrats Joe I know this video is a couple years ago but even just seeing it now still means the same as if it was put out yesterday. Godbless.
We're not different...our cars are different. Love u Joe big ups homie!!!!
