Longmont is home to over 200 Lowriders alone. This exhibition gives visitors a behind-the-scenes view of how these rolling works of art are created. From pin striping to upholstery, hydraulics to wheels, visitors will discover the varied skills needed to craft these beauties. Lowriders: Cars & Culture features cars, custom bicycles, pin striping and upholstery examples, old-school military hydraulics, vintage posters, magazines and historic accessories all related to the Lowrider scene.
