Kansas City Chief thats if your a mechanic & already have all the tools on deck and got mad time to work in the car he didn't include what it costs to have someone experienced build it for you.
Mizael Reyes it’s all the same. Any vehicle modifications or upgrades. Any performance upgrades. It’s all the same. Dumped $15k into a $4k 2004 Expedition. Smh. Never gonna get an excited buyer for even $6k smh. But I fuhhhkn love it ! 😂
no project is really does not matter if it's a lowrider a hot rodder or a big muder eventually the hobby becomes a lifestyle then you just screwed your fucked no looking back at that point
damn I clicked on this thinking it would be worse. 5k is not bad. coming from imports and hobby of racing I can honestly say lowrider hobby is less expensive but also more relaxed.
Remember: With ANY car hobby, it's as "relaxed" as you are about finishing the car. If you are obsessed with "getting it done" instead of going with the flow, you're gonna have a bad time.
I've worked on my 1959 impala since i was in elementary. I was 8 years old when I asked my dad for it i didnt know anything about cars or engines but, he was like Yea shur so I went to the library and got books with illustration and words lol and started working on it. My bother was a welder and fabricater he tough me how to weld and paint. it had the original 348/409 with power glide transmission. It started off a hot rod then went to a rat rod then a mild custom low hot rod. When I was in junior high. AlI along my build from the time i got it. I went to my dad's freinds to learn how to do things I didnt know how to do. they worked for automotive industries so they would school me. Then when I went to college I went for CRT automotive technology and wielding. I do not know how it turned in to a lowrider. Now it sits on cross lace and hydraulics. It's fun like really fun. I don't know how much I spent on it. I never kept track. Just buy stuff when I have the money. I did all the work my self. But 27years it's probably alot hahaha My late wife and our son took it from New Mexico to phoenix, California, Kansas, Nevada, it's still my daily driver. Yep she's still running strong.
if you ask Raza in Califas whats the cost of a lowrider theyl just laugh and say that dont even matter made or broke you do that shyt with out thinking about the feria its in the culture homez .............. alrato ....
I’m 100% Chicano , from Dallas, Texas and like you said carnal . Having a lowrider car just comes with being Chicano , Féria don’t matter. All I think about is what car do I want to work on. It’s in our blood.
D805YUNGBOSS now you tell me 😂 just brought a 97 Lincoln town car 🤔 already had the whole set up for $2500 I have no problems and been hitting switches 😎
snoop bone I want an 82 fleetwood to just cruise in with some fresh Dayton's, the paint when I buy the car is decent which is a stock factory color, after I'mma do a custom paint
I’ve been obsessed with lowriders ever since seeing them in movies as a kid. You don’t see them here in the UK but this is exactly how I imagined it’d be. Can’t imagine a car holding together well bouncing the thing around as if you’re going over a speed bump at 100.
You don’t go fast in low riders to begin with. You go slow, the paint is to take in the ride enjoy the moment. Low riding isn’t cheap you’re effectively going to have a money pit. I’ve spent 80k on my car so far.
Just came across your channel today & this is a good vid, Ive had a lowrider in my life for the last 20years so I feel your pain. One thing I tell people who is trying to build one for the first time is dont worry about the price, if there first question is how much then this is not for you. Im going to check out the rest of your vids but it sounds like your past the point of no return on your Lincoln so just keep going it will get there one day....One part at a time
Honestly I think this dude is trying to let a lot of these fools know what there getting into. I was in a car club for many years and I watch all kinds of dudes sell their projects after realizing what it was going to take to build their rides. I would go to car club meetings and fools would complain about how much shit costs and I would tell them "If your worried about the money? Your in the wrong fuckn hobby" Anything and I mean ANYTHING having to do with the automotive world cost fuckn Money you could have the baddest car in the world if you have enough money and passion behind it... and another thing I don't care if you have a 1978 monte carlo G body or a 1958 Impala by the time your done with it your probably going to have at least 30k-40k invested in it. So people should really take the time to think about if building any kind of car is something they want to be fuckn with or not
Rivierars Ramon Ik I'm 16 saving up for an 84 cutty and I "think" I'm ready for what ever problems this lifestyle brings, my dad had an 84 cutty back in the day and I'm here to carry on tradition 😂
That goes for bmx too bro i been worried about putting 974 into my main street bike and 2k into my race bike but now im like yk i actually enjoy this shit and can always make more dough and i got 2 lowrider bikes im workin on and 1 already has 1500 put into it
@kevingonzalez6778 He'll yea bro U sound a lot like me at ur age and can tell u if ur passionate enough and make it ur goal U will get that cutty and fixer up I can tell U that working on these car is so rewarding to be creative and to fix issues and then being able to drive ur car around after fixing problems will always put a smile on ur face these car will also bring people to u that have the same interest so these cars r just a win all around tear it up kid!!
@thatracinggtbmx6453 exactly when u do what u love cost is not important what is important is how rewarding it can be to pursue things u r passionate about in life few thing can make us truly happy fuck the money do what u love and the universe will reward U...Ain't gonna take it with u anyways stay 😎 bro
This is like anything related with other styles haha I love lowriders, slammed trucks, lifted trucks, Stanced cars, 1/4 mile cars, bikes, you name it haha One day I'll build a lowrider for the day to day!! Nice channel homie 💪😁
sometimes when you buy a lowrider already made. your also buying someone else's problems . then on top of that you have your buddies telling you oh that car used to belong to such-and-such or I saw it on Craigslist for this much. I just rather have a lowrider that it's 100% mine not someone else that gave up on it
Luckily my 'stinkin lincoln came with hundred spokes because of previous owner but i did have to pay for interior parts ( door panels,headliner, plastics etc..) and then i did have to pay around 2500-3000 for a paint job w/ pinstripes and leafing.. im only 19 and this car will be the death of me bro....
lmao...dont forget oil and hoses cuz you gonna probably blow 1 or 2 of those in the break in period. tie rods and ball joints if they never been changed will snap like a twig but in the end flexing for complete strangers its all worth it!!! lol
I bought 2 cars about 15 years ago. One was from Arizona. Nice white regal that I kept breaking because I couldn't figure out how to hop. Then a nice purple monte carlo fully done lowrider out of Des Moines. It had design all over it. Plushed out interior with mirror design. Incredible car for 5k. Can't believe I let that go.
Genuine question. Do you also need different motor mounts to take the pounding? Also to reinforce the strut tower, frame, control arms, etc or will the factory stuff be okay to take the abuse?
don't forget the cost of tickets for loud music, small wheels and tires, modified susp. and the tow yard cost if your caught hopping + a moving violation and points on your license we've all been thru that
thats the beauty of living in iowa, no tickets for modified cars, no points. you will get a reckless driving ticket for hitting switches on the street though if the cops in a bad mood, most are just so surprised to see one they wave lol.
Kenneth Pearey must suck where you live down here in Dallas, Texas only reason we would get pulled over for is traffic violation like any other car or if cop racially profile you and try to search your car but if you everything straight nothing to worry bout after that they wont bug no more
Dreams Crushed!!!!!!! Thank you for your honesty. I'm happy I found your video. I leaned away from that idea, even though, I would love to have the cutless bounce :(
@@Impoopinus I come from the gutters homie. What I meant/mean by "BOSS the fuck up" is to bust ass n hustle like every minute that passes is in reality a week. Gonna take you 30 years to build your dream car working your dead end job?? Then BOSS the fuck up and aim higher!! We get maybe 80 years on this planet, n then we're gone forever!! I worked many well paying careers, but they still didn't make it very possible for me n my kids to appreciate all the things that I don't feel are "over-reaching". So I busted my ass and sacrificed HUGE to climb myself to a whole higher level. I'm now my own BOSS, own my own company, and can provide my kids and myself a life that is alien to people like me. Life is fuckin short homie. GET TO HUSTLIN!!!!
2 grand won't event pay for the materials to even do a candy job..house of color is expensive..I don't recommend candy anyway..after about 5 years it will fade..if u ever get a dent ..God forbid that..it's unmatchable..gotta paint the whole car again.
Hydraulics..about 1500 bucks just to buy a decent setup..plus 6 batteries at about 200 bucks a pop each...then about another 1000 dollars to have it installed..
I’m 100% Chicano and I owned three lowriders at different times. I had one of the first Monte Carlo Landau 1975 with a factory 454 engine, power windows and electronic dash all factory. I gave a 1000 dollar down payment. I put Supreme wheels on it and since I had no money for hydros I used small wheels to give it a low look. The car had a great paint job and perfect interior I got lucky but you can get lucky too. My lowriders were basics but I added my own inexpensive touch ups all for 2500 minus car payments.
Need to add in a price for steel for rack and hold downs 3/4 inch steel for axel reinforced, upper control arms reinforced. Frame arch plates. You’re gonna want bigger cylinders for the rear at least bcuz standards in the kits are 8’s in the front and 10’s in the rear. It’s very costly but if you wanna do it and do it right you’ll make it happen. Just take more time. Love watching this guy build em though.
I paid $450 for my first set of brand new chinas with tires. Then again that was in 2005. We could get a full set of cornell 155/80s with WW for $80. The good ol' days. Great vid, bro 😎
For chain bridge and 3 wheel and hydraulic set up will run you like 4500$ from a hydraulic shop in Texas. We just order a 1000$ hydraulic kit specs for our cars and install them ourselves or some hydraulic shops will put them on for you cheap but it’s not covered if anything mess up. But lowrider cost more than you imagine. The wear and tear cost you in the long run
Building a 74 caprice hardtop. I bought the car for 4k and am now into it for about 10k not even close to where I want it. Giving it to my daughter on her 16th birthday. People say Im crazy for that but it's a father's job to lace their kids shoes and start them off on the right foot.
I have had 3 lowrider all lincolns a 87 Signature series 92 signature series and my new 97 Lincoln Town car cartier and I never put Hydraulics on any of my cars do to it fucking up the frame and breaking shit just put air bags not as fun as hydros but you can go up and down and not have to worry about shit breaking. I got blessed with the 97 it came with real daytons and system in it already tinted windows and perfect interior and minor issue's that cost me $500 to fix and payed $6,200 for it so. Some advice if you plan to build one make sure you have about 10k of play money and don't put used parts on ur ride 😉 best of luck and keep it low and slow
I picked my 71 Monte Carlo up when I first got the switches put on it and three wheeled out of the parking lot broke my ball joint in my spring and cylinder shot out of my car. If you don't have money to burn LOL don't even attempt building a lowrider. I have two of them that's been in Lowrider magazine I got close to $50,000 in each one and I stopped driving them for years ago. They're just a money pit and you'll never get the money out of them that you put in that's why I still have them
You forgot to mention, there are a lot of people that can build themselves...so you have to factor in cases of beers friends or just the money for a shop to install. I'm just gonna refer people to this video when the ask me how much, my builds are a little out of control now lol.
WellonsCJ lol yeah man I could have kept talking. I should have hit that point about these prices are no install. It's the owner busting their own knuckles, and some of their friends lol.
He's talking about just getting the bare minimum to start off. You are bragging that you spent more.. he's not doing that he's just saying how much to start off
ManCaveTV I know man it's a big no no. Lol but when your broke and your interior is junk sometimes it's better just to cover it until your money is right again lol.
Alex Luthor ooooooooh could you. Next time I'll do one in a very monotone voice itemizing everything involved with making a lowrider lol. Just having fun.
No i get it and I subscribed but as a newbie to lowriding , I really wanted to know what it would cost considering I'm not a mechanic , a arms , frame reinforcement , solenoid blow out , what normally brake underneath ect . Or just less stress to go air .
Alex Luthor I don't know what a shop would charge to install it but in guessing around 1000-1500 pretty easy. There is no way for me to put a number on a arms, frame reinforcement, break downs and all that. Number could be anywhere from free to infinite. People spend whatever they can on their lowrider. This is just a rough estimate on what it takes bare minimum to get in the door to start a lowrider project by yourself. If you want a shop to do it. I would guess you would need to have a minimum of 5 grand set aside just for the basic set up, with batteries, and installation. This is just the set up not counting the car, wheels, or reinforcements or anything extra you want to do. If you want to get into it. Just get a car, and some wheels and start saving money for the set up. Get some friends that are into the same thing and see if you can get some first hand advice on good shops in your area. Warning: a lowrider WILL take ALL of your money if you let it. So really price doesn't matter. Just know it's going to take everything you will give it lol thanks for subscribing.
a lot. but it does not matter if low riding is in your hart.. i LOVE,LOVE low trucks. im doing one right now. its a 92 s10 blazer. bagged and body dropped. and its all being done by me. i have 10g in it right now. paid a good penny for the truck as its is 99% rust free 2wd ,2dr . hard to find around here.
got a 1988 lincoln towncar, i wana pimp it out but not going to add hydraulics to it... i just wanna buy rims and add in a surround sound system... were did you get your rims from ? and do i need to buy tires to fit those rims or the tires that i have will fit, im looking to buy 15 inch 100 spokes wire wheels please let me know thanks
Let's see, I'm a Chicano born n raised streets of Killa Cali.... My latest ride: $7500 for a 1963 impala SS. $15,000 in New parts including full floors, full trunk, all new trim, bumpers, etc etc.... $2500 for custom set of 14 inch wires. $1000 for set of 14 inch tires/chubby whites. $800 for all my audio/stereo stuff. $6000 for all new interior. $10,000 for custom candy paint job including frame, rear end, engine block, front suspension parts, full dash, and steering column. $4000 for frame n suspension reinforcement and modifications. Another $5000 for complete hydro setup and install, 2 competition pumps with motor upgrades, adex dumps, 8 batteries, 12s in rear 8s in front. $1200 for fuel injection upgrade to motor. Another $1000 for engine rebuild and dress-up. Full frame off build. There is no exact or even ballpark number of what it costs to build a lowrider. Too many variables that can have huge effects on the price. But tatted across my back are four 8 inch letters....B.O.S.S. so it's nothin to a "G".
classics are for retirees or if you have alot of money to blow with no debt .But if your on a budget leave it alone save your bread dont embarrass your self 🚗💨💨😟
$680 is what it took to paint my 79 Deville and that's including primer and sealer. $400 for new 100 spoke wires with new tires. I do paint and body work myself. I do everything I'm an autobody tech plus I got some hook up on the wires but the rest sounds about right. Oh the system shit $200 for the deck, $100 for 4x6's up front $60 for 6x9's in back, $400 for the 2 12's and box also $200 for the amp and $100 for Xs battery and that was just getting a full system on top of everything else. Not the best but also not the worst system either. Bottom line shit adds up but it's worth it.
Cost more than that. That's the backyard boogie. You got install fees also. 10 years ago I could get candy paint for 1500. Five to ten gs is way too much for paint in due respects to the painter and work you put in it. That's the problem nowadays. That's one reason you don't see many lowriders. Too expensive. I've built and had many built. It's not some simple bolt on crap with paint like around here. Lowriders rule. Give them respect people. If you can't fade it, don't do it. I can't wait to build another. Thanks RJ. Wayne Costa 🙏RIP
Everyone says the amount of battery's, bit batteries vary greatly as many know, I come from car audio where 6 basic autozone agm batteries would not even have as much power as my single battery. (Litium) so is there an amperage or voltage you need?
CEED Rental yeah I touched on it briefly. Said 400 for steel to reinforce things. You can get away with no reinforcements on a very basic lay and play set up. But everyone has a hard time keeping the front end on the ground when they get switch happy lol.
The reason I came to yourube today.. and the video is soooo right. Burning money! Im a drag racer. That's another burning money hobby. "Thinking" on building a lowrider just to slow down in life. EDIT: Trips to the parts store.. THAT is a fact! The first stop, they never have what you need...lmao!!!
I'm from Massachusetts and I'm completely infatuated with low riders and have been every since I saw Boyz in the hood dough boys gold 64. Then seeing this Mexican dude in Fitchburg with a purple Regal with matching Daytons hittin switches outside of my high school. Our roads aren't the best but when my breads right I'll build one, can't find or afford a 64 Impala so 79 Caddy coupe de'velle I'll go for. Lowriding is a lifestyle.
No. Fools back in the day tried running 2 alternators with one directing current to the batteries but it was dogshit. A decent multi-battery charger ain't too expensive.
That's 5g's but what if I don't have any skill or tools? Gotta factor in that too! Great video btw! At first I thought no way did he just torch 1g?? But then I remembered Amazon sells fake money lololol! I've never been in a lowrider with hydro's always static,so for me I like airbags. Probably the same cost of fun but less stress and mess!?
D G from the ground up I have built the one that's behind me in this video. I had one built for me about 14 years ago and I ended up re doing it myself. And I have bought a few already done with switches and just had to do the normal up keep on them.
He fuckd me up burning money like no one needs it just like some wood so many people on the streets ho need that money damn people these days its carzy man damn
You didn't even talk about reinforcing and extending your A-Arms reinforcing the rear end and at minimum reinforcing the stress points on the frame. Your Lincoln Rd comes Factory with adjustable a arms and a fully boxed frame that's the only car you really don't have to do much reinforcing on
hittin switches for complete strangers = priceless
Facts💯
🤣🤣🤣
$10k to build a good lowrider is really not that bad. With a decent job you could afford it and you'll love the car every day you drive it
Kansas City Chief thats if your a mechanic & already have all the tools on deck and got mad time to work in the car he didn't include what it costs to have someone experienced build it for you.

Not less expensive depends what u do I know people out here rolling in $150,000 cars just like imports u can go as crazy as u want
Hova tru but that’s when they fully bump it up and modify it if u want a basic for now it’s not that expensive
Rocco Espinosa ya that’s with any type of car culture u can build something cheap or expensive
Hell yea tuner world gets pricey especially if you goin for hp. Nice 9g I got one too it’s my baby

Can’t imagine a car holding together well bouncing the thing around as if you’re going over a speed bump at 100.

a real lowrider will never end your cost.
*Instructions weren’t clear:* I burned all my money first before purchasing my parts! 🤪

I just rather have a lowrider that it's 100% mine not someone else that gave up on it
Depends on how much money you “spend”😎
But it is good platform to build on...you can change it to make it yours
You just committed a felony burning 💰. If you printed fakes another felony.
I tell my wife that. I never buy a car with rims, music, or exotic paint.
I myself am building a 62 Chevy Bel air lowrider the videos really helpful thank you for sharing them

I bought 2 cars about 15 years ago. One was from Arizona. Nice white regal that I kept breaking because I couldn't figure out how to hop.
Then a nice purple monte carlo fully done lowrider out of Des Moines. It had design all over it. Plushed out interior with mirror design. Incredible car for 5k.
Can't believe I let that go.
We Chicanos don’t think about the money we think about how fucking cool we’re going to look when it’s ready for the streets.
Genuine question. Do you also need different motor mounts to take the pounding? Also to reinforce the strut tower, frame, control arms, etc or will the factory stuff be okay to take the abuse?
Lmao "poor mans chrome" you crack me up
don't forget the cost of tickets for loud music, small wheels and tires, modified susp. and the tow yard cost if your caught hopping + a moving violation and points on your license we've all been thru that
thats the beauty of living in iowa, no tickets for modified cars, no points. you will get a reckless driving ticket for hitting switches on the street though if the cops in a bad mood, most are just so surprised to see one they wave lol.
+RJ Tickler lucky the cops wave there guns at us over here ha ha ha
Kenneth Pearey must suck where you live down here in Dallas, Texas only reason we would get pulled over for is traffic violation like any other car or if cop racially profile you and try to search your car but if you everything straight nothing to worry bout after that they wont bug no more
Well here in Cali we get tickets only if the cops are in a bad mood and only if you're caught hopping
Open flame in a garage? Thats forbidden in Germany. Well, almost everything is forbidden here.
RackwitzG Germany has been shit since the Nazis lost.
Dreams Crushed!!!!!!! Thank you for your honesty. I'm happy I found your video. I leaned away from that idea, even though, I would love to have the cutless bounce :(
Your dreams were crushed over $5k??? Fuck homie, I'm $50k into my Impala. Lowriding ain't cheap. BOSS the fuck up....
@@thedevil3890 not all of us have that much money to spend on a car, hell some of us struggle to get bloddy food!
@@Impoopinus I come from the gutters homie. What I meant/mean by "BOSS the fuck up" is to bust ass n hustle like every minute that passes is in reality a week. Gonna take you 30 years to build your dream car working your dead end job?? Then BOSS the fuck up and aim higher!! We get maybe 80 years on this planet, n then we're gone forever!! I worked many well paying careers, but they still didn't make it very possible for me n my kids to appreciate all the things that I don't feel are "over-reaching". So I busted my ass and sacrificed HUGE to climb myself to a whole higher level. I'm now my own BOSS, own my own company, and can provide my kids and myself a life that is alien to people like me. Life is fuckin short homie. GET TO HUSTLIN!!!!
@@thedevil3890 like too $hort said you should be gettin it.
Liked and subbed. Ur channel got me ready to throw some bags on da van.
In Dallas Texas
Paint=2000 basic candy
Spokes=750
Juice+Install =2500
Radio System =600
Where at in texas?
I need to come to dallas then
I just moved to Dallas from AZ what shop would u suggest out here?
2 grand won't event pay for the materials to even do a candy job..house of color is expensive..I don't recommend candy anyway..after about 5 years it will fade..if u ever get a dent ..God forbid that..it's unmatchable..gotta paint the whole car again.
Hydraulics..about 1500 bucks just to buy a decent setup..plus 6 batteries at about 200 bucks a pop each...then about another 1000 dollars to have it installed..
I’m 100% Chicano and I owned three lowriders at different times. I had one of the first Monte Carlo Landau 1975 with a factory 454 engine, power windows and electronic dash all factory. I gave a 1000 dollar down payment. I put Supreme wheels on it and since I had no money for hydros I used small wheels to give it a low look. The car had a great paint job and perfect interior I got lucky but you can get lucky too. My lowriders were basics but I added my own inexpensive touch ups all for 2500 minus car payments.
Great vid. I just subscribed!!
Brandon Glenn thanks I appreciate it.
I was genuinely expecting to get a figure around $15K...this makes me more hopeful.
This is a LOT cheaper than racing! I love it.
don't understand this guy crushing my dreams lol
Its reality homie gotta pay to play 😔
Probably because his lowrider is ugly as shit
Bruh he negative af with the lowrider where’s the positive side
matson 😂 i bet it is
Hey, can you make a beginners video to how the hydraulics work and connect to the car and to other parts , what parts are needed.
Just got a 81 Regal I’m about to get ready for 2021 Cali Lowrider! #MambaForLife
Need to add in a price for steel for rack and hold downs 3/4 inch steel for axel reinforced, upper control arms reinforced. Frame arch plates. You’re gonna want bigger cylinders for the rear at least bcuz standards in the kits are 8’s in the front and 10’s in the rear. It’s very costly but if you wanna do it and do it right you’ll make it happen. Just take more time. Love watching this guy build em though.
You didn't cover engine and transmission work you'll mostly like need if you're buying a classic car
That should be the first thing.

That's a given spudnugget. Your a telling the white man what he already knows and what most people already know with automobile ownership.
I paid $450 for my first set of brand new chinas with tires. Then again that was in 2005. We could get a full set of cornell 155/80s with WW for $80. The good ol' days. Great vid, bro 😎
Vinny Romero yep my first set was player wire wheels they were like 750 with tires shipped to my door step lol. Back in 02
RJ Tickler Good shit, brother💯Subscribed 👍
I paid 850 for my first set back in the day they were galaxies
For chain bridge and 3 wheel and hydraulic set up will run you like 4500$ from a hydraulic shop in Texas. We just order a 1000$ hydraulic kit specs for our cars and install them ourselves or some hydraulic shops will put them on for you cheap but it’s not covered if anything mess up. But lowrider cost more than you imagine. The wear and tear cost you in the long run
There is no price on a lowrider.. you just keep spending and spending lol
Building a 74 caprice hardtop. I bought the car for 4k and am now into it for about 10k not even close to where I want it. Giving it to my daughter on her 16th birthday. People say Im crazy for that but it's a father's job to lace their kids shoes and start them off on the right foot.
Great video and I plan on doing this to a "Hate Tank" an old hearse . Great everything except for the exterior.body.
What do you guys do for the steering alinement at my ride hight its good but droped or raised it totally changes the driving quality
Man bro im looking to get my first one next year it dont matter the cost i will not need a therapist budget cuz i wanted one since i was a kid
I have a few 64 impala copues for sale. Location Birmingham, AL bit i will deliver nationwide. 205-920-8200.
@@justinlee8392 you still got them
I have had 3 lowrider all lincolns a 87 Signature series 92 signature series and my new 97 Lincoln Town car cartier and I never put Hydraulics on any of my cars do to it fucking up the frame and breaking shit just put air bags not as fun as hydros but you can go up and down and not have to worry about shit breaking. I got blessed with the 97 it came with real daytons and system in it already tinted windows and perfect interior and minor issue's that cost me $500 to fix and payed $6,200 for it so. Some advice if you plan to build one make sure you have about 10k of play money and don't put used parts on ur ride 😉 best of luck and keep it low and slow
I picked my 71 Monte Carlo up when I first got the switches put on it and three wheeled out of the parking lot broke my ball joint in my spring and cylinder shot out of my car. If you don't have money to burn LOL don't even attempt building a lowrider. I have two of them that's been in Lowrider magazine I got close to $50,000 in each one and I stopped driving them for years ago. They're just a money pit and you'll never get the money out of them that you put in that's why I still have them
Hey man im planning on building one as my first car im sure its a bad idea but what would you recommend or what advice would you have?
For a classic car, stock cars are better for looks, value, and it doesn’t look tacky.
I'll just dip with my torched rear springs for now
You forgot to mention, there are a lot of people that can build themselves...so you have to factor in cases of beers friends or just the money for a shop to install. I'm just gonna refer people to this video when the ask me how much, my builds are a little out of control now lol.
WellonsCJ lol yeah man I could have kept talking. I should have hit that point about these prices are no install. It's the owner busting their own knuckles, and some of their friends lol.
🤣😂🤣 where are you from Homie.!??... You are throwing some cheap prices for Car, Paint, Wheels, and Parts.!
So far I have invest $40,000 on my ride.!
He's talking about just getting the bare minimum to start off. You are bragging that you spent more.. he's not doing that he's just saying how much to start off
Love your videos and your channel! But my brotha, no tint on the low low!! Lol
ManCaveTV I know man it's a big no no. Lol but when your broke and your interior is junk sometimes it's better just to cover it until your money is right again lol.
ManCaveTV why no tint on a low low
I was gonna comment on the tint as well but someone already touched on it.
Some people rather ride with tint like us here in Texas it gets hot down south thats how we ride
Personally i like the tint look on the low lows
Its always good to save 20 grand. Ima start saving xD
😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥🔥bravo ! Facts!!! Same here ma boi 99 Lincoln towncar street hopper
Could have done with out the theatricals.
Alex Luthor ooooooooh could you. Next time I'll do one in a very monotone voice itemizing everything involved with making a lowrider lol. Just having fun.
No i get it and I subscribed but as a newbie to lowriding , I really wanted to know what it would cost considering I'm not a mechanic , a arms , frame reinforcement , solenoid blow out , what normally brake underneath ect . Or just less stress to go air .
Alex Luthor I don't know what a shop would charge to install it but in guessing around 1000-1500 pretty easy. There is no way for me to put a number on a arms, frame reinforcement, break downs and all that. Number could be anywhere from free to infinite. People spend whatever they can on their lowrider. This is just a rough estimate on what it takes bare minimum to get in the door to start a lowrider project by yourself. If you want a shop to do it. I would guess you would need to have a minimum of 5 grand set aside just for the basic set up, with batteries, and installation. This is just the set up not counting the car, wheels, or reinforcements or anything extra you want to do. If you want to get into it. Just get a car, and some wheels and start saving money for the set up. Get some friends that are into the same thing and see if you can get some first hand advice on good shops in your area. Warning: a lowrider WILL take ALL of your money if you let it. So really price doesn't matter. Just know it's going to take everything you will give it lol thanks for subscribing.
I would love to build a 1959 Impala. Good Videos 👍.
Well, I was actually looking for a Harley Davidson Low Rider S review but I’ll watch
a lot. but it does not matter if low riding is in your hart.. i LOVE,LOVE low trucks. im doing one right now. its a 92 s10 blazer. bagged and body dropped. and its all being done by me. i have 10g in it right now. paid a good penny for the truck as its is 99% rust free 2wd ,2dr . hard to find around here.
got a 1988 lincoln towncar, i wana pimp it out but not going to add hydraulics to it... i just wanna buy rims and add in a surround sound system...
were did you get your rims from ? and do i need to buy tires to fit those rims or the tires that i have will fit, im looking to buy 15 inch 100 spokes wire wheels
please let me know thanks
🤣🤣🤣🤣 this shit got me laughing seriously cryin laughing
Where’s a good website or place I can order some spokes for my caddy ?
Let's see, I'm a Chicano born n raised streets of Killa Cali.... My latest ride: $7500 for a 1963 impala SS. $15,000 in New parts including full floors, full trunk, all new trim, bumpers, etc etc.... $2500 for custom set of 14 inch wires. $1000 for set of 14 inch tires/chubby whites. $800 for all my audio/stereo stuff. $6000 for all new interior. $10,000 for custom candy paint job including frame, rear end, engine block, front suspension parts, full dash, and steering column. $4000 for frame n suspension reinforcement and modifications. Another $5000 for complete hydro setup and install, 2 competition pumps with motor upgrades, adex dumps, 8 batteries, 12s in rear 8s in front. $1200 for fuel injection upgrade to motor. Another $1000 for engine rebuild and dress-up. Full frame off build.
There is no exact or even ballpark number of what it costs to build a lowrider. Too many variables that can have huge effects on the price. But tatted across my back are four 8 inch letters....B.O.S.S. so it's nothin to a "G".
double OG triple OG LMMFAO about to role on the Block
I still would really like to build me one after seeing this video I think it’s love at first sight 🤣🤣
LoL this dude is crazy but telling the truth... Funny video bro but I will prepare to spend more because I don't need the headache...
classics are for retirees or if you have alot of money to blow with no debt .But if your on a budget leave it alone save your bread dont embarrass your self 🚗💨💨😟
$680 is what it took to paint my 79 Deville and that's including primer and sealer. $400 for new 100 spoke wires with new tires. I do paint and body work myself. I do everything I'm an autobody tech plus I got some hook up on the wires but the rest sounds about right. Oh the system shit $200 for the deck, $100 for 4x6's up front $60 for 6x9's in back, $400 for the 2 12's and box also $200 for the amp and $100 for Xs battery and that was just getting a full system on top of everything else. Not the best but also not the worst system either. Bottom line shit adds up but it's worth it.
Clicked off soon as he said lincoln
Why did your boyfriend that left you have a Lincoln?
First 50 seconds is my story.
Cost more than that. That's the backyard boogie. You got install fees also. 10 years ago I could get candy paint for 1500. Five to ten gs is way too much for paint in due respects to the painter and work you put in it. That's the problem nowadays. That's one reason you don't see many lowriders. Too expensive. I've built and had many built. It's not some simple bolt on crap with paint like around here. Lowriders rule. Give them respect people. If you can't fade it, don't do it. I can't wait to build another. Thanks RJ. Wayne Costa 🙏RIP
Everyone says the amount of battery's, bit batteries vary greatly as many know, I come from car audio where 6 basic autozone agm batteries would not even have as much power as my single battery. (Litium) so is there an amperage or voltage you need?
Sad but true you are fuc#ing hilarious keep up the good work
What about your frame most important reinforce your shit
CEED Rental yeah I touched on it briefly. Said 400 for steel to reinforce things. You can get away with no reinforcements on a very basic lay and play set up. But everyone has a hard time keeping the front end on the ground when they get switch happy lol.
RJ Tickler hellsueah first-timers Trigger Happy I've been there
ive never related more to someone then to a man talking about rims and burning money
Hey that’s not bad, I might have to cop
That's what it costs to be a straight G. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
The reason I came to yourube today.. and the video is soooo right. Burning money! Im a drag racer. That's another burning money hobby. "Thinking" on building a lowrider just to slow down in life.
EDIT: Trips to the parts store.. THAT is a fact! The first stop, they never have what you need...lmao!!!
I'm from Massachusetts and I'm completely infatuated with low riders and have been every since I saw Boyz in the hood dough boys gold 64. Then seeing this Mexican dude in Fitchburg with a purple Regal with matching Daytons hittin switches outside of my high school. Our roads aren't the best but when my breads right I'll build one, can't find or afford a 64 Impala so 79 Caddy coupe de'velle I'll go for. Lowriding is a lifestyle.
Blizz ThaVillian Dough Boy's car was a 63 not 64 my friend
Just curious have they come up with a way that the car charges the batteries so you won’t have to put it on a separate charger
No. Fools back in the day tried running 2 alternators with one directing current to the batteries but it was dogshit. A decent multi-battery charger ain't too expensive.
in south centrial LA you can get a decent low rider cut out with 8 switches from $3000 to $30,000
$15k is the budget I'm gonna use to start. Ls1 engine swap, Daytons, suspension, hydraulics, paint and chrome. In that order.
12 of that will be on the ls swap alone lol
Ls swap, Daytons, etc etc.... and you think $15k?? My dude, multiply that $15k by 2 or 3 and you're closer to being correct.
@@thedevil3890 exactly the swap will come first!!!
Got that towncar in the back
That's 5g's but what if I don't have any skill or tools? Gotta factor in that too! Great video btw! At first I thought no way did he just torch 1g?? But then I remembered Amazon sells fake money lololol! I've never been in a lowrider with hydro's always static,so for me I like airbags. Probably the same cost of fun but less stress and mess!?
I'm just curious how many lowriders have you actually built? And if you could provide pics.
D G from the ground up I have built the one that's behind me in this video. I had one built for me about 14 years ago and I ended up re doing it myself. And I have bought a few already done with switches and just had to do the normal up keep on them.
What do you think about OG Wire Wheels? I would love to get me a set of affordable wires.
Dope Fiend great company. Had a buddy order some from them last year.
@@RJTickler thanks
I have a set. There nice. However if you hop on them they bend. Save for Dayton bud. Cheaper in the long run.
@@jessemarkle5413 Planning on getting bags on, no hopping.
Burning that money made me emotional.
Think imma just get a camry lol but people don’t appreciate the lowrider community these bros put alot of time money and effort in these cars
No ones gonna comment on how he’s just burning hundreds
Big boy Jacob probaly fake money
He fuckd me up burning money like no one needs it just like some wood so many people on the streets ho need that money damn people these days its carzy man damn
passion Tv fake money lol I need it too.
How much is it to get someone to install everything?
What about frame work to keep you from breaking anything
What about frame reinforcement ??? It is expensive too !!!
Facts!!!!
You didn't even talk about reinforcing and extending your A-Arms reinforcing the rear end and at minimum reinforcing the stress points on the frame. Your Lincoln Rd comes Factory with adjustable a arms and a fully boxed frame that's the only car you really don't have to do much reinforcing on
it is a money pit
