Well, as most of you know Last October we said good bye to Martin Villanos and his beloved Black Cherry Lexus GS as he rolled up to Andrews Air Force Base, MD. Before he left Bandy and I took some shots of his ride along side his fellow Lexus GS brothers.
In attendance:
Drae86toreno – Martin (GATO's Old Ride)
Veritek – Bing
CarbonGS – Tony
WhitevoMr – Daniel
All of the ATL peeps must have signed this engine cover!

We met up at a Lexus dealership in Atlanta and were welcomed to take pics in their underground showroom floor. That was pretty cool.

That’s all folks! Hope you enjoyed em. This was Bandy’s first time using a rig so not many of the rig shots were posted. He’s got a lot more rig time under his sleeve now so watch out for his latest work at a thread near you haha.
