I love it coach Silva!! Really nice car! Thank you for helping us young ladies stay and get on the right path :)

[@tinystar3010]

Dude! I remember that blazer! I think I still have the issue it was in too! I always loved it. As soon as I saw it in the video I recognized it immediately! It's a similar story for me, in the beginning sense. I had car mags in school and I'd dream about builds I wanted to do, and that blazer caught my eye years ago. Just now, I still don't have the disposable income to do anything. It's surreal seeing the builder/owner randomly so many years later!

[@maddyhuerta1245]

[@hit_thepdx_gym1940]

No offense towards any gender, but I’m old and was taught what a “real man” should be made of, which is exactly what this guy reps. Wish communities had more leaders like him. Respect.

So with u riding on 13s even though the speedometer said 85 u were probably only going 50 mph. I learned this the hard way driving my car from Illinois to Mississippi. I was doing a 100mph and still getting passed by everything on the highway.

[@Thomasrobert69738]

You can’t go wrong with an LS

[@maximme]

WHY cant they make car like this any more?

[@andresmunoz5430]

Looks good but original would have been way way better

[@carlosdeleon6680]

Good morning who would be the contact to nominate someone for your lowrider role models? In light of women's month I'd like to tell you about Mayra Martinez. She runs a nonprofit called AIM High sober living they help men who come home after sentences reestablish themselves back I to our communities. The work she does is amazing and inspiring. But aside from that she helps homeless men and women get off the streets. She owns a beautiful collection. 1964 impala ss, 1964 Oldsmobile dynamic 88 rag top, 1960 imapla hard top,1979 Monte Carlo, 1984 C10, street bikes and a softtail harley. Truly redefining what a woman lowrider can do. She prides herself in saying she was told at 14 girls don't own lowriders. That's been her motivation she wants to inspire women and show its possible. If you could point me in the right direction I'd highly appreciate it. Thanks for your time and consideration.

[@MidniteClubII]

I'm a little surprised he doesn't know that for a Vintage Pre-1969 Chevrolet Lowrider, Nothing looks as good as an Original Steering Wheel... Nothing.

[@midknightsun69]

I don't know much about the lowrider culture. How come all the cars are Chevrolets and no Fords?

Chevy is the preferred car of the Chicano lowrider culture. Why, I really don't know, other than there are so many different models to choose from. Fleetline, Bel Air, Impala, Caprice, Chevelle, Nova, Monte Carlo. However, people do use other makes, there are some examples in other Lowrider Role Model videos.

[@midknightsun69]

@ Thanks for the reply. Appreciate it.

[@BurninAZ928]

There's plenty of ford's, they just don't get the attention like Chevys. Mainly you'll see Lincolns.

[@davidnikulka1437]

Do to safety and vulnerable issue's the convertable was not a great idea.

[@turdferguson2839]

Nice car, too bad it's got an ugly paint job and dumb little wheels. This guy's trying to look cool but he ends up looking silly.

[@BurninAZ928]

You're trying too hard there, kiddo. If you're going to troll, be less obvious.

[@calibiggdogg5047]

Don’t know about that ride ...no juice,ugly color,dude barely fit in the car just sayin..🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

[@franksilva5054]

Can't please all the Haters. Good luck bro

[@jacashalot3441]

[@pretzeltss]

Don’t put a LS in a classic impala like that .
