L.A. Lesson Special Edition: The Pachuca Lifestyle

Written by "Ebony Eyes"





The pachuca way of life is a very special lifestyle that can only be experienced in Los Angeles. It is a lifestyle that a pachuca experiences around her environment. This experience involves being around others who live and dress in the pachuca way, especially family, friends, and associates. Listening to the oldies and seeing, hearing, and admiring the old cars inspired me to be pachuca and to make a club for pachucas that includes everything that makes being a pachuca so great: the old cars and oldies.








I call it the "Pachuca Car Club" and it's all about being around classy women that are into old cars and hearing the good old tunes. The Pachuca Car Club started out as one part of the Pachuco Car Club, which accepts women into it and acts and feels much like the Pachuca Car Club does today but was too macho to be a real part of the Pachuca lifestyle, and ended up being a hindrance. So the Pachucas started their own thing because they liked the environment and because the Pachuco's way wasn't the right way and none of the other Chicano Car Clubs did it right either. I did this for me and other women who wanted to have a good time with the old cars and the oldies AND to do it their way.









Other members of the Pachucos left when they realized that they do not have to deal with the drama that the Pachucos had. I realized that this was my chance to recruit them to start a car club and help make the Pachucas well known. I set the club up to show that women can start and run a car club and have other hobbies too. I am very understanding and that's why I decided to let the other members keep and enjoy their hobbies and we would push each other to share each other's hobbies. We are all about expressing our ourselves and showing our pride of being Chicanas and spreading the Pachuca culture. We are the Pachuca Car Club and we are all about the old cars, the oldies, love, respect, unity, pachucos, and pachucas.

Thanks for inviting me for a guest blog OGDUDE. In order to become a part of this club, you got to Stay Down!
