MY 1979 MONTE/ MOTEL HELL

HERE ARE A COUPLE OF FLICKS OF MY MONTE BEING WORKED ON FOR THE EXHIBITION BEING HELD AT THE MESA ARTS CENTER. THIS CAR WAS ORIGINALY OWNED BY DOC OF LIFESTYLE C.C. IN 1979 WHO ROLLED IT DOWN WHITTIER BLVD. A YEAR LATER IT WAS CANDY PAINTED BY BIG ED AND IN 1983 BOB AND SONS PUT THE TUCK AND ROLL THAT STILL BLESSES THE CAR TODAY. THE ONLY THING THAT I DID TO THE INTERIOR IS ADD A BILLET STEERING WHEEL AND A CLARION DVD HEAD UNIT. WHEN I WAS A KID AND I DREAMT OF MY PAINTINGS I NEVER THOUGHT MY CAR WOULD BE THE CANVAS.. ITS NOT ALL ABOUT ME THOUGHT THERE ARE ARTIST THAT WILL BE FEATURED THAT ARE MY FRIENDS AND INFLUENCES. MIKE PICKEL IS AN O.G. CAR BUILDER AND ARTIST AS A MEMBER OF THE BEATNIKS C.C. HE WILL BE THERE TO EXHIBIT LOWRIDER ART. HE IS BEST KNOWN FOR DESIGNING THE LOW RIDER MAGAZINE LOGO AND DRAWING PORTRAITS OF BOMBAS LOWRIDERS SLAMMED TO THE TEETH. JACK RUDY ALSO A MEMBER OF BEATNIKS C.C. IS FAMOUS FOR BEING THE GODFATHER OF BLACK AND GREY. JACK IS A REAL LOWRIDER AND THE ON THE HOMIE THAT I KNOW THAT HAS DROVEN A LIFTED CAR WITH WHITE WALLS TO NEW YORK AND BACK.
