Celebrating Chicano-Latino car culture for Semana de la Raza

Posted May 10, 2000

carShiny chrome, dazzling sequins and artful detailing were plentiful Sunday, April 30 at Underhill parking lot, where local low rider enthusiasts showed off more than 100 prize autos for a Semana de la Raza Low Rider Car and Bicycle Show.

Organized by the student organization MEChA and the East Bay-based Low Riders Limited, the event brought campus and community together in a celebration of Chicano-Latino culture and an effort to dispel stereotypes about low riding. The name of this Isuzu is "My Toy 2."
