Oldies Car Club Picnic & Filming For Speed TV’s “Living The Low Life” ~ Sylmar
George from Oldies CC invited me out to a picnic the club was having for a filming of the hit show “Living The Low Life” on Speed TV. The turn out was awesome. The club had various chapters on hand and a lot of great cars.
Chris Roark had his recently crowned Lowrider of the Year “The Perfect Score” on hand.
This car has so much detail it is a must see in person. It will have a cover feature in LRM real soon.
Here’s George getting interviewed by the LTLL crew. The crew was very nice and great to talk to.
More images from the picnic. I have a few hundred photos to go through. There is also more on my Flickr page.

My Favorite Taco ~ Walton Goggins
Walton Goggins is the mad genius actor behind the character Shane Vendrell on TV’s The Shield, which airs its last episode Tuesday on FX. The show focuses on dirty cops in the city’s Rampart division (obviously a pure fiction) and regularly shoots in MacArthur Park and other iconic LA nabes. It turns out that The Shield‘s crew are expert practicioners of Taco Lifestyle. Here’s what Goggins had to say in a telephone interview for Zap2it:
“A lot of people made a habit of getting tacos wherever we were filming and comparing them to the tacos we ate the day before. There was a taco joint, it was season three, right down off of Rampart, south of Rampart. It was awesome, was so good. Then there’s some right off Sunset that are wonderful. I forget the names of them now. There was a running card with names way back when, but it’s long since vanished.”
