SYLVIA
Mechanic, Los Angles 2017.
She/her
This is Sylvia, along with her co-workers they offer freedom to women across the districts and suburbs of Los Angeles.
A love of cruising the city at night in their restored autos led four sassy street mechanics to find a carbon offset purpose within their community. Passengers range from minimum-wage nightshift workers, to a safe ride home for young women out for an evening at Spanish cinemas and Cuban dance halls.
Sylvia is a prominent voice in the ‘No gracias señor’ movement which calls for specific state laws against harassment of women in male dominated workplaces.
Her querida, known simply as Green Goddess, is a V8 Selene Fastback manufactured by Wade of Ohio in 1968 – one of only five known running examples from the long defunct maker.
