Lowrider-Bellydance

Lowrider cars, which originated during the late 1940s in Mexican-American communities, have a hydraulic suspension system that allows them to change height, appearing to jump or dance. Here, instead of waging a typical macho battle with toy versions of these cars, two young men make them perform a feminine, flirtatious dance to Arabic music.
