  • BUILT TO CRUISE EPISODE #13 Hear Cynthia's story of how her and Shey Cox met, fell in love, and ultimately built an amazing full custom bagged Chevrolet HHR. Shey passed in 2011, so Cynthia preserved his memory with a mural on the rear and continues to show the vehicle in his honor.
    Cynthia describes what it took to change the HHR into a show-stopping Hearse, known as HHRSE. Shey Cox passed away in 2011, but his memory carries on through his daughter and his friends and family. Cynthia also tells us of his club, Explicit Concepts, and how she eventually became a part of Freak of Nature Car Club.
    This video was made in memory of Shey Cox May 20, 1973 - October 3, 2011

    Since my father passed, I have debated building a memorial truck in his honor. Would you build a memorial custom vehicle for a loved one?

    I've been binge watching all of these and makes me miss the life so much. I was in some clubs in Vegas back in the day and moved here to North Louisiana, and it seems there are no truck clubs at all around here. I'm still searching... Hit me up if you know of anything. I'm in Monroe, LA. (northeast LA area)

    • @BuiltToCruise

      Louisiana clubs seem to be centralized in the Southern Louisiana area. The larger ones may have members scattered across the state and not necessarily all in one area.

    Wow what a custom HHR u got there. The graphics are beautiful! As for the air bag ride, up here in Pennsylvania that wouldn't work. The roads in this state are ridiculously bad! Hit a big bump or pothole the underside would end up damaged! Interesting turning a coffin into a big boom box! How many watts is the sound system in the HHR?

    "people come out the woodwork when you are at your lowest"
    Wow ya that's absolutely not true.
    Furthermore.....
    I personally dont get "memorial" cars or even more tacky the memorial stickers people get on their cars.
    What happens when you 2004 rust bucket with moms life span and RIP on it dies or is wrecked?
    I guess that memorial is gone, and memory.
    It is just SUPER tacky and Super uncouth.
    Very trashy
