1967 Buick Riviera owned by New Movement SFV car club member Jimmy Lemus of San Fernando, California. Known as "Low and Loaded," Jimmy's Riviera featured a custom paint job by Bill Carter of Carter Pro Paint.[1] In November of 2021 Jimmy told Sondre Kvipt of Kustomrama that "Honey Boy," one of his New Movement homies installed the hydraulic lifts on the car. The lifts were installed in 1970. In 1973 Jimmy sold the car to buy his first home.[2]
