Ok i was not going to put this on the workbench section . that was untill yesterday, when i found out that an old friend that i havent talk to in 13 yrs.

i found him on facebook. and then thats when he told me the sadest story ive ever heared. and yesterday was a sad day , this is what i found out . my friend had a lil girl on 12/27/97, then (this is were it gets sad) on 11/9/98 she passed away due to her heart muscles quit working. that was 12 yrs ago yesterday.

well when i heard this, i figured i would build this lowrider for him an dedicate it to his lil girl. he is a big lowrider fan.

ok heres the build.. its AMT's custom 62 catalina.
