Her attentive images and extensive interviews with members of lowrider clubs and their community provides perspective into this male dominated world and shares not only her view of the people and the culture, but also their stories. Kristin Bedford explores the car culture of Southern California and the lowrider community which she has followed for years. It feels good to drive it down the street, know it will turn heads, and get nods from other classic car owners as they pass by. While my parents never took the Corvair to car shows, they’ve cared for it, kept it running and looking good for over over 50 years. My parents own a classic car, a 1965 Chevrolet Corvair, it carried my sister on a parade route back when she was in high school, and she waved to the crowds too. My hometown in Indiana holds a fall festival every year, and the parade always includes historic and custom cars either with the festival queen and her court waving to the crowds, or owners slowly cruising by just for show. Those festivals include crowds of people, delicious food, concerts at twilight, and parades. Fall festivals are right around the corner. At the time of this review, the weather in the midwest is turning to the cooler climate of Autumn.
