Praise the Lowered!

A truly famous lowrider from the 70's that graced many magazines and is widely recognized throughout the lowrider community has recently resurfaced for sale in Kentucky. The "Nostalgia Sleeper" '49 Merc showcar that was originally built by Classics CC member Charlie Lopez has been stored in a barn for the last 18 years and is in remarkable shape. It was originally silver then re done in the late 70's in red. The car disapeared and it was found out that it had been stolen and repainted. After it's recovery it was put in a barn and plans for a carson top were in the works. Congrats to the new owner Mr.Bomba who rescued her from it's carson top demise! Plans for a resto back to it's original silver state are on plan.
