Everyone needs to stock up on this immediately!
Nowadays, far too many people fake the funk and talk too much shit so arm yourself with a few rolls of ShitBegone. This exciting new toilet paper will keep haters away and it's infused with seven different oils that'll prevent backstabbers, posers, fakers and drama queens from coming your way. Recommended use: 1 sheet per hater.
SEMA is going to be flooded with dozens of customized Dodge Challengers but I can guarantee that none of them will come close (when it comes to exterior stying) to the three widebody edition Challengers crafted by Topo. If you're headed to the show be on the lookout for these bad boys.
The black Dodge Challenger pictured here is the second one to be completed and the orange one behind it the third in line.
With stock wheels on the Challenger it gives you a better feel of just how much wider the Challenger gets after the wide body conversion.
Topo taping up his the rear quarter for his cut lines.
OG Abel put it down for a little over 17 hours straight and all I can say is that he came through in some major ways. To add to that, the whole team that I assembled (with the exception of two fuckin' idiots) all kicked ass and put in more than their fair share of hard work and sleepless nights. But above everyting else, all I have to say (and yes I'll say it again) is that there's no way you can fail when you surround yourself with the best.
Heavy Hitters: Alan Lee (Issue 6), Topo (Issue 1) and Kennedy (Issue 3). They're all masters at their craft and above everything else they understand and practice the concept of integrity, loyalty and passion when it comes to their craft. Nowadays, that's a hard combo to find so suckas take note and remember the old adage: It takes years to build a great reputation and only seconds to destroy it.
If you're confused as to what LOYALTY means then click here. LOL.
Lastnight Howard came down and brought three pizzas from the Downey Pizza Co. and he's been talking it up like he owns the bitch so we all finally got to try it.
Pastrami Pizza? OK…so let's rephrase and re-categorize everything. If you' re looking for good pizza Mozza is great. But if you're looking for stoner/ I can eat a horse type of food then this is the best pizza to have. The only thing left to rate is how smooth it comes out after but don't trip though ….I'll send that shit out later.
Action shot.
You won't catch Allan eating pastrami pizza. This is the only guy I know that eats a "cup" of salad at a damn "bufffet"
So Howard takes a picture with this dog (a dog that his lady has always wanted) and then sends it to her phone with a message that says, "Guess what I'm bringing home?"
So when she replies, "Really?! Really?! Really?!"
He says, "Hell no! I brought you three slices of pastrami pizzza!"
Ha ha ha ha ha…..now that's some cold shit Howard. Ha ha ha ha!
Keef and Fee-nando.
Keef is one of the homies that comes down to kick it – unless he's pretending to be a sports fan.You see this guy has never watched sports in his life but now that he met a girl that loves sports then all of a sudden he's got a "favorite" team and a closet full of jerseys. Fantasy Football too? Please niggie……yeah….me too.
Anthony's Hummer with some big 'ol wheels!
Check out this beastly Porsche that showed up with a V8 outback. I heard this thing had so many mods that even Porsche didn't want to service it. Now I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing but it's definitely not my cup of tea. LOL….actually this car reminds me of the custom Porsche's that used to show up at the Lowrider Shows back in the late 80's.
These are the shit! Sprint Hart CP-R. Once they're done and refurbished I hear they'll catch $2,000 for a set.
Big Badd Onxx doing his bet Kid Millionaire impression. Onxxx was the genius behind KushTV but now he's left the building and that shits about to fall apart without him. Next up? KushLIFE….so be on the lookout.

George in his lab cuttin' up the video footage.
Uhhh..you can put him back in the cage now. Thanks.
Here’s the last few shots I took at the Super Show. Wanna see more? Then pick up an upcoming issue of Lowrider Magazine for a full feature. Either that or go surf the net. Ha ha ha.
Yum.
Pillows.
Tattoo Tony and his daughter. Right before this picture was taken I slapped an “HH” sticker on Tony’s back and almost got his ass swatted by his club. LOL….my bad Tony. Ha ha ha.

The homie P-Money from the Wynn.
That’s genius. (more…)
This year the weather at the Lowrider Super Show was a bit chilly but it's actually been the best weather yet. For the first time ever you could walk around the event without sweaty balls and although it was a bit chily it stil didnt stop the hoochies from dressing scantily clad. This year I decided to take more pictures of friends rather than cars because the way I see it…if you wanted to see the cars then you should have gone to the show. LOL…but seriously the cars were all the same – with the exception of more mods – so here's what I got. More to come later.
Joe Ray with the homies Puro and Jas from Toronto, Canada.
Kickin' it with Mexico, Puro and Jas

That crazy mofo Smiley.
This morning was the roll-in for the Lowrider Super Show going down tomorrow at Cashman Field. As usual, it was a sight of organized chaos and it's also the best time to take pictures without mounds of people standing in your shots. Enjoy.
Check this ride out from One1Luv. It sports a clear convertible top and it might not be everyone's cup of tea but you gotta admit that it's pretty damn fresh.
Close up view of the clear top.
Miguel aka "Massage Boy" was cool enough to lace me with my staff pass but was a dick and wouldn't hook me up with a hoodie. If you're coming out to the show then understand that it's colder than a witches tittie out here (59 degrees).
At the Palace Station. Cisco's Cutlass from Uce Car Club.
Another Uce Car club. R.I.P. Manny.

Damn…does Rudy have to jump in every damn picture! LOL.
More to come later……gotta go to work.
The 2008 Lowrider Magazine Super Show is this Sunday at Cashman Field in Las Vegas, NV so troopers from all over the world are coming out to play. Yesterday on the way up we ran into everyone from members of UCE Car Club from Sweden down to the the boys from Lifestyle C.C. from L.A. and Phoenix. Here's a few flicks from the drive up….
