I love how Jay has so much respect for the craftsmanship of every single person who comes on his show. Every single person from every walk of life. Respect.
My daddy taught me to act this way towards everyone too; I expect everyone to be this way. I'm 60 year old however, so I grew up with real men and women I guess.
Alex Velasquez I seen Jay at costco in Burbank in early February. Hella cool guy, real down to earth. WUSUP JAY! I know you don't remember me, but your car was so dope that day!
Lowrider car shows make all other car shows look like clown shoes. I'm not a lowrider, but I'm a car guy. And if you're a car guy, you can appreciate the amount of work that goes into these cars. Unbelievable. Great show.
Jay is just another man that doesn’t care how big he has made it in life, he remains HUMBLE and loves people and respects other cultures just like us 👌🏾🇲🇽🙏🏾
I’m not a low rider kind of guy but the craftsmanship on them is stunning. Jay has it right. Even if you’re not into low riders, certainly you can appreciate the workmanship.
Honestly, todays "car culture" being all about sideshows, vandalism, crime, streetracing, burnouts, fight, and drifting cars till destruction... its really refreshing to see a group of people who are into the artistic beauty and chill side. mad respect
@Robby Dey That isn't entirely a bad thing... seeing people drive around mortgages and leased cars is pretty scary. Getting a good job is hard nowadays.
@Robby Dey that is not bad at all, it is just nowadays this generation is broke and we cannot afford anything without being massively in debt, every kid nowadays want a super cool car like a 64 impala or a nissan gtr but we cannot afford it at all so we go to a cheap hatchback and mod it to our liking
Thats a stretch to call what theyre doing "streetracing, burnouts and drifting" its more like speeding in traffic like a idiot, brake stands cause theyre shitbox cant do a real burnout, and flooring it and fishtailing like a spaz hoping that you dont hit a curb or another pedestrian this time, the other descriptions made them sound like they actually have a ounce of talent or braincells which they do not 9/10 times.
@@kanyewestinasparklingwater7475 whose fault is that? The past 2-3 generations have had their priorities completely fuked up and backwards... getting pregnant in highschool, knocking some chick up in highschool, not going to college, getting dead end jobs with no future at all... its all about decisions and your average person seems to make bad decisions and for bad decisions their are repercussions which might be financial
@@uglyjihadwhat does affordability have to do with acting like fools? Destroying streets with donuts, hitting people with cars etc? I’m 27 and I have a fully built 65 impala rag. Guess when I got it? When I was 18 for 2,000 dollars. Guess when it started running? Just a year ago 2 days ago. I have been working on it slowly doing what I could myself and saving. You guys just have no patience and want instant gratification.
I feel like the LowRider car culture is way underrated and unappreciated. These cars are absolute works of art from top to bottom and front to back. The attention to detail and the craftmanshift and workmanship is truly incredible. Nothing but love and respect. Hope to see more integration of the LowRider culture in the car culture as time goes on.
I can help it, without any effort at all. The lowrider is a symbol of the Mexican gang subculture, and criminal element in southern California. These are the cars gunshots rang out from in southern California neighborhoods in the 1960s-1980s. Those tatted gang members in these cars would routinely force motorists off the road to rob and murder them. Believe me when I say, I find it very easy to _not_ appreciate anything about this car... or the owner, for that matter.
Some people on here are dumb with there comments you dont have to want or even like the cars for what ever reasons be it racial or ignorance I wouldnt want a car like this but you have to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry that goes into these machines , there beautiful machines
Shout out to Jay for showing his love and appreciation for the culture and more importantly, the sheer skill, beauty and detail that it takes to create and maintain these cars. Viva la raza Y viva Jay Leno!
He was really geeking out on the craftsmanship wasn’t he? I loved it to. I can remember seeing my first full blown “show lowrider” and just being overwhelmed. I couldn’t even decide what to focus on. Like engraved suspension pieces. One of them had custom bolts with a logo engraved on the head. Like, every damn bolt in the car!
@@Username-2 you ever heard of a low rider flipping? skipping a median and exploding on a pilon? you drive that thing low and slow and your rider is the safest thing out there.
I'm an exotic and euro car collector and never been into this lowrider culture, but I am now. Thoroughly impressed. Jay was genuinely interested and so thoughtful in his portrayal of this segment of car culture. Thank you, Jay for making time and creating this video. One of my all-time favorites!

@@elilopezi8832 I'm planning on getting a 88 crown vic......I know it's not traditional to turn into a low low, but is it acceptable? I've never seen that model with hydros before.
You have to respect the amount of creativity, detail and work put into both of these vehicles not to mention money. My little cousin is a lowrider and she is out there doing a lot of her own work.
I used to be a lowrider back in the late 70's early 80s. Back then being a lowrider was one of the best hobbies a young man could do to keep you out of trouble, I owned a 73 Caprice Classic (known as a "glass house) due to the back window, hydraulics on all corners with chrome and brass pumps, and Tru-spokes on all corners. Wonderful time I had back then and it nice that Jay took the time to enjoy a unique car art form.
Haha all that stuff is in your head the racism is created by media and racist people I see the beauty of years of tradition and creativity from hotroding all baked down to a beautiful creampuff love the colors 😍
Thank you Jay for doing a Low Rider segment. I am into Hot Rods and Motorcycles. But i have a great deal of Respect for All Car cultures. Its unbelievable how much love. Money and time goes into what we love... My Hat goes off to the two Gentlemen who shared there Beautiful Cars with your viewers. Thanks Jay for having thIs channel and for sharing your Beautiful Car and Motorcycles Collection with your viewers. Much Love. Loyalty and Respect to you and All your subscribers..

I'm not into lowriding, but I gotta say that's the coolest Jay has ever looked. Anyone can own a Lamborghini with enough cash, but to be riding in something with that much style takes style... love it.
My heart would be pounding out of my chest if someone else(even Jay Leno) was driving if I had a ride like that. Insurance/money cannot cover what it took to build a car like that. Outstanding craftsmanship
It took me an hour to get through this video, I kept pausing it to admire all the details on both these cars. I have much respect for these guys and this art form.
Took me about 50 minutes. Another 5 minutes rubbing my eyes and somewhere between 8 to ten minutes picking up my jaw from the recently vacuumed floor. Pz to all.
My goodness what extraordinary engineering and craftsmanship. The black car was stunning enough - but then the caramel and gold car was in another different class altogether. Wow!
Very cool! I'm glad Jay showed a lot of respect for the Lowriding community by highlighting the top notch enginuity and craftsmanship put into these cars! Great Job!
This is what I like about Jay Leno, he's not only a car guy, he's not afraid to showcase lowriders on his own TV show (I wish more people were like him.)
Junior Velasquez Lol,good suspensions only already cost over a 100K,but then I mean really good... You really willing to buy a 200-300K car while you can just build it yourself for half the price? :P
Hey JAY! Me and My Son built a 1951 Western Flyer (WESTERN AUTO PARTS) 2 Seater Bicycle back in 1994, entered it in the Lowrider Nationals in Dallas Texas and received 1st place out of 500 + bikes. It was featured in LOw Rider Bicycle Magazine as a center fold of the FIRST LOWRIDER 2 SEAT Bicycle in HISTORY! Lets do a LOOK AND TALK about it! I still have the bike to this day sitting in my office with all the custom paint, crushed velvet seats and 24K gold dipped accessories...
It's just me but I'd take the black at over the orange baby. Nothing looks meaner and badder than a murked out whip. Although, that Orange one is a beauty. Detail to perfection. I'm not a flashy type of guy. Both are equally beautiful in all areas. 👍🏽👍🏽
You can tell Jay has a real love for all things car, he lives and breathes anything motorized. And the fact that he is so knowledgeable is insane. He’s definitely living his best life.
I don't understand the critical comments - cars are about self expression. People modify their cars to suit their personalities and make them happy to spend time with it. I think it's immature to say 'it looks terrible' etc because whilst you have your opinion, you should still respect others choices and their opinions. If you don't like what someone has done to their car, then so what? Go and customise your car the way you like it and respect other peoples opinions and styles. If everyone had the same taste, then the world would be tasteless
I wish I had 34 hands to give this comment 34 thumbs up. The funny thing is that narrow minded people think they have seen enough, grown enough, developed themselves enough and start correcting what their ignorant eyes think is wrong. Very few things are wrong. The things that ARE wrong, are universally wrong, murder, theft, abuse in any level. Blah blah blah. These are cars, damn good ones too. Part of the goodness is they belong to others.. Sorry for the long winded comment. I will return to my PCP and HEROIN, pz to all. Jay, you rule.
Francoberry absolutely they also modify their cars and take them to shows for other people's opinions,and let's face it everybody has an opinion and in my opinion the black Chevy was okay,and the way too yellow Chevy was hideous at best just an opinion.
saw Jay at a coffee shop in LA...dude really knows about his cars man. Some people have more money than brains...but he actually knows what he's talking about and it's quite respectable. peace
bennydman666 I see "I love haters" stickers on Honda's all the time. Get over yourselves, nobody's hating. Its funny to see inflated ego's thinking people would really be jealous of a Honda car.
A great line from futurama: "Do you have any idea what a burden it is to know everything that will ever happen? To never be surprised! To know the punchline of every joke hours in advance. …” - Pickles “Like watching Leno.” - Fry
Dear Lord!!..I can't imagine how much time and $$$$$ that went into the paint /pinstriping on both cars....even on my crappy computer screen the paint is soo deep and smooth I wonder how many layers of base and clear...WOW!!...Great video!!.Thank you to Jay for showcasing the hobby and thank you for the owners for sharing their rolling artwork.....(I wonder where BMW got the Idea for their art cars...MMMM??)
+ja er (J.E) I am gonna have to disagree...BMW art car started in 1975...lowriders have been in existence long before that...I have seen some of the BMW art cars in person..they were on display at Grand Central station in New York..I do not think from an artistic standpoint they(BMW art cars)do not compare to the detail the lowrider culture puts into theirs....they put more paint on the car than a Rolls Royce
The paint and prep cost in LABOR is much more than my little car is worth,by far. 18 different paints and pin stripes must take weeks of planning and then the taping and then the clear coat? Insane amount of hand built body work. It computes and equated to CUBIC DOLLARS/PESOS! That automobile is too nice/fantastic to drive in L.A. traffic. It belongs in a museum,guys. i would be afraid to drive it!
Jay Leno tried to say he saw somebody paint stripes with a BRUSH with no tape AND drinking whiskey I don't know what the hell hes talking about like seriously
I'm sure Jay has his taste in his own cars,but also keep in mind that this is his show and illustrates other cars and their wonderful posibilities from rods,classics to chopped dropped & crasy fantastic paints ..and if I were jay,I wouldn't change a single thing..keep up the good work..
Wow! I 've lived in Albuquerque all my life, and have seen a lot of low riders. These two were fantastic. I really loved the sleek look of the black one, and that engine. Wow, great cars!
You can't, the level of workmanship and engineering done on them is top notch. The paint job on both those cars is enviable. And lastly, unlike many wanna be restomods or hot rods or ricers, the power train on these two is very legit.

@@davids.794 Why do you allow the subject of a person's age control the way you think of other people? Age is simply a measurement that represents the length of time someone has existed on this Earth. Nothing more, nothing less.
I really do appreciate lowriders as an artform even though I'm more off an import tuner guy myself. I love the attention to detail and the high standard of craftsmanship which is seen with the more serious builds.
Cruising with the crazy uncle... lol... Love you Jay. It is awesome to see that you appreciate these as well. Any car guy that looks at low-riders objectively has to appreciate the art form. And what a better compliment can we get than to get a nod from the ultimate car guy.
I have to clear the air my father who was Malties started lowriding w/ hydraulics on them rather than air shocks and shackles. My father's car club was called Las Estrellas back in the 70s I believe in Daly City California. He lived close to the SF airport and new the mechanics. He got the idea to transform the cars suspension from a old car that had a stock single hydraulic to lift car up from scraping in drive way. He went to the airport mechanics with the idea of using hydraulics from landing gear on plane. The mechanic laughed with amazement thinking it was crazy but would work. He gave him used equipment which was good from the plains along w/ instructions on hydraulics. He made it work for a while until the piston ripped off the and shot through the fender and into the air lol. He soon learned where to get the right sized equipment. With the help from his friend Robert from Low Creations who was the treasure of Las Estrellas at the time they started a new generation of car culture.
Saw that:).. He should be more comfortable under a lift if he is been working on this car.. But i think he was too nervous about being in front of camera.. Amazing car though !!
My shop did work on The 1963 Implala. It was a shop called, Classic CARS AND NOT RIDE FROM in Canoga Park, CA. In the SAN Fernando Valley. I have the history restoration of preparation of the body work for this lovely vehicle.
Comments like most of you on here make me hate ppl in general. These cars are works of art, until you see something like these in person you can't understand. Im a fan of all cars, muscle cars, imports,exotic,lowriders,mini trucks,ratrods and everything else. If its built with passion thats all you need. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but if you don'like something turn it off. Now i just want to say love the channel and those cars are amazing. Love the attention to detail, the lines and of course the paint on both cars. Keep up the good work jay.
As someone who grew up in a mostly hispanic family, in a mostly Hispanic community, I will always love lowriders. The 63 Impala will always be my go to for a lowrider build
WOW! The craftsmanship, the skill, the obsessive attention to detail is just amazing. Love the Skittles/Creamsickle car! You can go uphill & downhill all at the same time!!!
I was skeptical at first, but the overall quality and color-sense of this car is magnificent. A great work of craftsmanship will always stand on its own merits and achieve the level of art.
Saw my first lowrider when I moved to Phoenix in 1980. Guy I worked with had a side business doing welding on cars. I was looking at the batteries and pumps driving the hydraulic system. I asked why they used such a primitive system. I called a friend in Massachusetts to send me a catalog from a company that sold DIY snowplow and sanding equipment. I showed Charlie and his brother in law hydraulic pumps that bolted to the engine block or onto brackets under the hood. No need for a bunch of batteries. Pistons with different ends for custom configuration. They were amazed at this stuff. They put a few things on their project car. Big hit with their friends. No more hacking the frames,weakening the car. Saving the steering and suspension geometry.The workmanship on some of these lowriders was labor of love. Then you see one hooked up to a tow truck with the front end folded.
I love how Jay can literally ask anyone anywhere to drive their car and they never say no. He must be the coolest guy in the world. 👍🏻. Also i love the attention to detail the low rider culture has and wish i had the patience to build one! Lol
I love how Jay has so much respect for the craftsmanship of every single person who comes on his show. Every single person from every walk of life. Respect.
My daddy taught me to act this way towards everyone too; I expect everyone to be this way. I'm 60 year old however, so I grew up with real men and women I guess.

I wish I had 34 hands to give this comment 34 thumbs up. The funny thing is that narrow minded people think they have seen enough, grown enough, developed themselves enough and start correcting what their ignorant eyes think is wrong. Very few things are wrong. The things that ARE wrong, are universally wrong, murder, theft, abuse in any level. Blah blah blah. These are cars, damn good ones too. Part of the goodness is they belong to others..
Sorry for the long winded comment. I will return to my PCP and HEROIN, pz to all. Jay, you rule.
Michael, you're alright!
If you think this is bad try riding sports bikes and decide to take the old man's cruiser out for a day with the boys shessh!
not too many car cultures that just keep their cars completely stock
Francoberry absolutely they also modify their cars and take them to shows for other people's opinions,and let's face it everybody has an opinion and in my opinion the black Chevy was okay,and the way too yellow Chevy was hideous at best just an opinion.
Jay’s like a kid in a candy shop he appreciates all styles, He’s really into it attention to detail in this car is amazing thanks for the show
I gained a whole new respect for the Lowrider community from this video. Amazing cars.
Looking at these low riders reminds me of Eddie Guerrero 😢😭😢😭😢
It does
RIP latino heat
You look so good in that sweet ride. J, thanks for this interview and the guys who came and did it with you much appreciation and respect.
saw Jay at a coffee shop in LA...dude really knows about his cars man. Some people have more money than brains...but he actually knows what he's talking about and it's quite respectable. peace
I am mostly a Honda guy but I really respect this style. It's super cool.
Dat v tec doe
Haters gonna hate.
bennydman666 I see "I love haters" stickers on Honda's all the time. Get over yourselves, nobody's hating. Its funny to see inflated ego's thinking people would really be jealous of a Honda car.
No. I don't put stickers on any of my cars. Just because some kids give Hondas a bad name doesn't mean there is anything wrong with Hondas.
I own a Honda. I know nothing is wrong with them. You the one with the "haters gonna hate" comment.
They are works of Art . Thank you for posting this. Much respect to the skills of these men.
One of the _very_ few times I've enjoyed watching something Jay Leno has hosted.
Too bad he isn't funny, I'm glad he's gone.
I agree C. Michael Barsotti, he really wasn't that funny.
Rene Bernardino guess he wasnt that funny. all the money and major success he had. you two old men are jealous. GTFO
A great line from futurama:
"Do you have any idea what a burden it is to know everything that will ever happen? To never be surprised! To know the punchline of every joke hours in advance. …” - Pickles
“Like watching Leno.” - Fry
Oh, Mike Hunt... you literally made me laugh out loud.
That '63 is astounding, I would have maybe gone a little more traditional on the interior, but holy cow. The paint is beyond words.
Agreed... the car is handsome to say the least... It could probably be an exhibit in an art gallery.
when he opens the hood on that second car, its like the taj mahal of engine bays.
Dear Lord!!..I can't imagine how much time and $$$$$ that went into the paint /pinstriping on both cars....even on my crappy computer screen the paint is soo deep and smooth I wonder how many layers of base and clear...WOW!!...Great video!!.Thank you to Jay for showcasing the hobby and thank you for the owners for sharing their rolling artwork.....(I wonder where BMW got the Idea for their art cars...MMMM??)
think if someone scratches it...
( In Darth Vaders voice) NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo!!!!
+copperlocks1 BMW had art cars way before.
+ja er (J.E) I am gonna have to disagree...BMW art car started in 1975...lowriders have been in existence long before that...I have seen some of the BMW art cars in person..they were on display at Grand Central station in New York..I do not think from an artistic standpoint they(BMW art cars)do not compare to the detail the lowrider culture puts into theirs....they put more paint on the car than a Rolls Royce
The paint and prep cost in LABOR is much more than my little car is worth,by far.
18 different paints and pin stripes must take weeks of planning and then the taping and then the clear coat? Insane amount of hand built body work.
It computes and equated to CUBIC DOLLARS/PESOS!
That automobile is too nice/fantastic to drive in L.A. traffic. It belongs in a museum,guys. i would be afraid to drive it!
Lowrider paint jobs are second to none!
Hispanic culture in general is second to none lol
@@DrKooBot is deportation a trade to?
@@DrKooBot inaccurate
@@interceptingfist5682 lol plz, Only ones who compare w/ Latin American culture are the Japanese
The best
6:54 Nice air brush art work on the door.
Yeh i wish dude would of mentioned it. I don't think jay noticed it
Jay Leno tried to say he saw somebody paint stripes with a BRUSH with no tape AND drinking whiskey I don't know what the hell hes talking about like seriously
That 63 is a slice of heaven!
That black fastback is such a nice shape. Amazing paintwork on both rides!
Best paint job of ANY car I have ever seen come into Jay’s garage... wow.. Not my cup of tea but I can definitely tell that is a beautifully done job!
there was some sick airbrushing on the inside of the first car's door. I love touches like that.
I like the fact Jay has such a variety of vehicles on his show. Keep up the great work.
Best 63 convertible with a 409 I’ve ever seen! Beautiful machine!
I'm sure Jay has his taste in his own cars,but also keep in mind that this is his show and illustrates other cars and their wonderful posibilities from rods,classics to chopped dropped & crasy fantastic paints ..and if I were jay,I wouldn't change a single thing..keep up the good work..
Wow! I 've lived in Albuquerque all my life, and have seen a lot of low riders. These two were fantastic. I really loved the sleek look of the black one, and that engine. Wow, great cars!
J Leno is a national treasure. He is an international ambassador to gearheads and enthusiasts that is universally admired, respected and even loved.
how can anyone hate on lowriders done up like this?
+M Rod I have nothing against the car, but middle-aged men look fairly ridiculous in them.
You can't, the level of workmanship and engineering done on them is top notch. The paint job on both those cars is enviable. And lastly, unlike many wanna be restomods or hot rods or ricers, the power train on these two is very legit.
@@davids.794 Why do you allow the subject of a person's age control the way you think of other people? Age is simply a measurement that represents the length of time someone has existed on this Earth. Nothing more, nothing less.
66 63 Chevy endangered species that’s why.
That much weight with sooo many moving parts 🤦🏼♂️

@ Amen!
much respect to the whole lowrider nation! Keep it all the way live homies!!
Every time I watch this video I get goosebumps. Makes me very proud to be part of this fascinating culture.
nobody mentioned the hard work of wrapping that x frame in 1/4 inch steel.
There's alot of work done to these cars before paint & hides get installed.
I really do appreciate lowriders as an artform even though I'm more off an import tuner guy myself. I love the attention to detail and the high standard of craftsmanship which is seen with the more serious builds.
As soon as you get on a LOWRIDER your street cred goes up 80%!
Cruising with the crazy uncle... lol... Love you Jay. It is awesome to see that you appreciate these as well. Any car guy that looks at low-riders objectively has to appreciate the art form. And what a better compliment can we get than to get a nod from the ultimate car guy.
I have to clear the air my father who was Malties started lowriding w/ hydraulics on them rather than air shocks and shackles. My father's car club was called Las Estrellas back in the 70s I believe in Daly City California. He lived close to the SF airport and new the mechanics. He got the idea to transform the cars suspension from a old car that had a stock single hydraulic to lift car up from scraping in drive way. He went to the airport mechanics with the idea of using hydraulics from landing gear on plane. The mechanic laughed with amazement thinking it was crazy but would work. He gave him used equipment which was good from the plains along w/ instructions on hydraulics. He made it work for a while until the piston ripped off the and shot through the fender and into the air lol. He soon learned where to get the right sized equipment. With the help from his friend Robert from Low Creations who was the treasure of Las Estrellas at the time they started a new generation of car culture.
Paul camilleri the saluter brown brigader little car
Always loved lowriders!! I craftmanship that goes into these cars is amazing.👍
Am I the only one who noticed the guy tripping as he went underneath the car lift?
picax8398 yea, i thought he hit his head ! lol
i noticed that too he thought no one seen him trip though haha
that bump
Saw that:).. He should be more comfortable under a lift if he is been working on this car.. But i think he was too nervous about being in front of camera.. Amazing car though !!
SEVENTY FIVEEEEEE Monte Carlo.
Low riders are always the nicest cars in shows. Best paint, best undercarriage. Big fan of the lifestyle.
My shop did work on The 1963 Implala. It was a shop called, Classic CARS AND NOT RIDE FROM in Canoga Park, CA. In the SAN Fernando Valley. I have the history restoration of preparation of the body work for this lovely vehicle.
Comments like most of you on here make me hate ppl in general. These cars are works of art, until you see something like these in person you can't understand. Im a fan of all cars, muscle cars, imports,exotic,lowriders,mini trucks,ratrods and everything else. If its built with passion thats all you need. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but if you don'like something turn it off.
Now i just want to say love the channel and those cars are amazing. Love the attention to detail, the lines and of course the paint on both cars. Keep up the good work jay.
very cool. nice to see Jay covering all car culture types.
As someone who grew up in a mostly hispanic family, in a mostly Hispanic community, I will always love lowriders. The 63 Impala will always be my go to for a lowrider build
This has blown my mind. So beautiful, work of art
Jay Leno's taste in cars is💯💯💯💯
Even of low riders isn't your thing....the craftsmanship is top notch.
Lowriding in australia. All we do is put a tonne of cement on a landcruiser.
Lol. 4x4 lowrider. Minor wheel rub if you don't turn.
2 fat chicks in the back of a xd falcon
vansawk good idea LOL
vansawk Lmao.

Oh, yeah. Don't forget about the cracking breakfast in the morning ;)
I have watched many of Jay's shows now, though just started a year ago, and this one was really fun. He is a great host, regardless of the show.
WOW! The craftsmanship, the skill, the obsessive attention to detail is just amazing. Love the Skittles/Creamsickle car! You can go uphill & downhill all at the same time!!!
The Lowrider cars have some of the most over the top customizations big respect its an interesting culture among cars
I was skeptical at first, but the overall quality and color-sense of this car is magnificent. A great work of craftsmanship will always stand on its own merits and achieve the level of art.
Some absolute master pieces.Lowrider was my favorite Car mag as a kid ,killer cars but the Models were drop dead gorgeous.
Not my thing, but simply unbelievable craftsmanship and technical know-how. I love all the aircraft parts in the hydraulics.
Brings me back to my childhood, I. Use to collect lowrider magazine's.😎✌️
Always fascinated by the craftsmanship and skill on the paintwork of these cars. Amazing attention to detail.
Uh... Jay your "German" voice just sounds like Arnold...
like thats not the point. ..
+Mimo Karlsson Arnold has an Austrian accent .
Matt Close no jay is itilan
Really bra...
Um... that's 'cause "Jay" is actually "Ahnold" in a Jay Leno suit.
I love how jay is just so giddy about these cars
Saw my first lowrider when I moved to Phoenix in 1980. Guy I worked with had a side business doing welding on cars. I was looking at the batteries and pumps driving the hydraulic system. I asked why they used such a primitive system. I called a friend in Massachusetts to send me a catalog from a company that sold DIY snowplow and sanding equipment. I showed Charlie and his brother in law hydraulic pumps that bolted to the engine block or onto brackets under the hood. No need for a bunch of batteries. Pistons with different ends for custom configuration. They were amazed at this stuff. They put a few things on their project car. Big hit with their friends. No more hacking the frames,weakening the car. Saving the steering and suspension geometry.The workmanship on some of these lowriders was labor of love. Then you see one hooked up to a tow truck with the front end folded.
I love how Jay can literally ask anyone anywhere to drive their car and they never say no. He must be the coolest guy in the world. 👍🏻. Also i love the attention to detail the low rider culture has and wish i had the patience to build one! Lol
