When downtown for the farm to fork festival, we came across a Hispanic wedding. There were 8-10 lowrider vintage Chevrolet Impala’s all lined up on display. Plus for the bride & groom, a 1940 convertible Cadillac. It was fun to walk by and see the event. Later, we saw the bride & groom cruising downtown and being driven to their reception. Best wishes.

Lowriders have been a part of the American car culture since the 1950's. With artistry and a "till the wheels come off" attitude, members of this community pour their hearts and souls into their cars.

During National Hispanic Heritage Month, September 15-October 15, the U.S. government celebrates the countless contributions of more than 60 million Hispanic Americans, Latinos, Latinas and Latinx-identifying people to our culture and society. Hispanic Americans are the largest minority group in the United States.

Nice on Black.

It was a fun find to come across the wedding party coming out of the church. The cars lined up made a statement. My favorite was the 1940 Cadillac. Such a beautiful vintage car. Thank you for your views and comments!
