Leroy & Kenny Gonzales - Lowrider Magazine

Fast forwarding to the future, Leroy bought his son Kenny a two-door '57 Bel Air for his 13th birthday. The youngster got every imaginable ticket in that car. "From exhibition of speed, to unsafe lane changes, to hit and run, and even getting in high speed chases with police," exhales Leroy. He can laugh about it now, since luckily, Kenny got everything except a DUI - since he's not a drinker. Still, his son's love for automobiles was genuine, and Kenny, who had learned everything about customizing cars from his dad, would come home from school to find several cars parked in front of his parents' house. They would be dollar signs to him, as they were parked for him to lower them, which he used to do with a torch for side money.
