1962 Impala Rag

If i´m correct it’s a snapshot from the upcoming Lowrider documentary La Vida Low.

“La Vida Low, a documentary film about low riders in California, will feature the legends of its game and the big dogs of its boulevards.”

Can’t wait to see it.

Herbie has find a new home

My buddy Andreas Åberg sold his race beetle a couple of months ago to New Zealand. and now the car was displayed at the 2013 NZ 4&ROTARY NATIONALS, still looking badass. It’s 2 picture up on Speedhunters of it.

And the info from Speedhunters on the pictures.

“At the other end of the spectrum is the vintage VW scene. New Zealand’s always been a little behind the eight ball when it comes to modified – as opposed to faithfully restored – Beetles, Buses and the like. Hopefully this recent Swedish import, a modern-built Pro Stock adaption of ‘Herbie’, might inspire a few people into action though, because it’s seriously cool.”
