I thought it would be cool to see what other car folks do to their cars and pics they take when doing their rambles.
click on the link and you may agree with their photo approach to fond memories.

i am in the early planning stages of building a low rider

Got a low rider bicycle I started 3 years ago. I got everything to finish but the frame needs alot of welding and grinding before it would be finished.

Got any pixs of that bike? All lowrider's are cool.

Using alot of older bike parts and motorcycle parts. Has triumph z bars and Choppers Inc six shooter grips. Downhill mountain bike wheels withslicks and a brooks saddle and saddle bag. I have the parts to put disc brakes on but I'm not sure if I will or not, bikes gonna go what 10mph? Has triple tree forks and both front and rear wheels stays are cut into little iron crosses so are the pedals.

What. You didn't see those cars? Maybe you had your mind occupied. LOL
My guess is most overlooked this thread or comments would be stacking up. LOL

Have you seen these? Actually from a post a few lines down from this one but back to the 1st page of the thread. Spent way too much time looking at all the 914's, the teeners, and the fun they were having. Cameras used by some is my head scratcher. Professional looking shots. Big applause.

If we had a Miss 914 contest at the next WCC we could increase participation. :-)

So I assume these are just a bunch of geeky car guys - even though they build low riders and customs. How do they get the chicks?

Are they imported/paid to pose with the cars?

I waited to see if any responded to such a good question. Nada any so,
I am guessing that many are friends of the car owners or friend of a friend that are told it would be a good opportunity for them to get some glamor shots in a national magazine that could be the shot heard around the world if they have any modeling dreams to fulfill. Worked for some. Beatle Paul's ex could have been one of those that said what the heck and posed, more naughitly I understand.
Then again, many are likely hired by the magazines to increase readership with pixs for men who play with their cars are generally crazy about.
