I’m 63 years old and grew up in Gilroy, 30 miles south of San Jose. I remember every one of these low rider shops. We use to cruise King and Story on Saturday nights.
Thank you for sharing this. I just did a video myself on FENNER STONE pumps. The footage of Andy’s is priceless. Thank you so much! God Bless. #history
I can't recall seeing a 61 thru 64 Impala in the vid. No wait, a 64' with frenched in rectangle headlights in a shop window at 7:13. We all love these icons. They are what surely comes to mind when a lowrider is mentioned in 2024. In this vid, 1971 LTD hardtop first scene! Lucky homeboy washing his 75 Pontiac Lemans! A wise man said, "Hey, if we are going to wear uniforms, let's everybody wear something different." Let's embrace the rarer, odder, lowriders. Bring back the Euro styles of the 90's, too! Don't make me do it myself!! lol
Love this nostalgic historical footage! This reporter had me rollin' when he explained the terms "Bad Ride" and "Happenings"!! 😆😆 I love my lowlow but also my hot rod Camaro... 😎😎
The good old days when Chicano's sticked together and was brown and proud now these youngsters trying to act like the morenos doing sideshow and not into lowriding
It's sad seeing the Chicano culture dieing and the chavalos acting black with their pants saging. If they knew that the ones who started doing that was the blacks in prison that were homos
I met Sonny Madrid in 1969. We collaborated on outing Vendidos in Sanjo, like vatos who qualified for $$ for Skills Centers which never got built, but they had nice rides and threads. He did the text and I did the cartoons on flyers. My hermano was his compa. I called him and suggested he tell Sonny I wanted a job. After a couple days no dice yet, so I moved to Sanjo and walked into the LRM office and took the job, silently daring anyone to tell me no. I wasn't going to pass up a job on the only glossy and colorful revista that Chicanos had at the time. worked on Lowrider Magazine issue #1 (Jan Feb 1977 ) and joined the Sanjo production staff in October of 1979, at 10th and William. By then the mag had 32,000 subscriptions many for vatos in the military overseas. We are talking Raza, Blacks, Whites and Pinoy ( Pilipinos). Sonny screwed up and hired a racist gava. I had to explain a thing or two to this necio, several times. Teen A., not Raza, showed up with artwork often that eventually pissed off Chicanos. The fool put vatos in military uniforms. Worse than that this disgusting character presumed I'd admire his stories of sex with child Korean girls when he was in the US Marines. What a crude baboso. I still have pristine Lowrider mags from the late seventies. Sonny's son Mario Madrid is on TH-cam and I'm putting him on my channel.

He's afraid to say the word Chicano. When you stand up to the Man you're considered "dangerous."

lets taket it LOW AND SLOW!!!!😎
What year was this? ❓ ❓ ❓

Case in point - it takes a Brit like Erick Burdon to cut through the nonsense and make outstanding music like this!
Eric & War together was a perfect combination love it!
Without Sonny Madrid 🙏🏽 it wouldn’t be no Lowrider mag or teen Angel but la loves takin all the credit instead of giving
