Filbert Aguirre's 1961 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz, customized with Candy Red paint, hydraulic lifts, and Buick wire wheels with thin whitewall tires. Filbert, the younger brother of Ron Aguirre, played a significant role in the early development of hydraulic systems in custom cars. By 1962, working out of the Aguirre family’s two-story barn in Rialto, California, Filbert had installed hydraulic lifts on his Cadillac, showcasing his expertise in adapting aircraft hydraulic technology for automotive use. His innovative work helped lay the foundation for the widespread adoption of hydraulic systems in lowrider culture. Photo courtesy of 46to64.
