MR BIGGS

Hope you all have a great day.

nice build..

Very nice build..

Thanks Jason.

Thanks for the complements my friends. I will post all the fab work this build soon. Thanks Zed...

Thank you Ira Mike and Zed for the comlements My friends. Mike none taken, It's all good. Zed I took the inspiration from Charlie Lopez But changed up the gull wings and made them full doors. I wanted to put spokes on it also but that would of put me in the lowrider catagory and I think it was more custome. I have a few more crazy Mercs on the table that will be just as crazy.

Very nice looking Olds, a lot of nice detail. great paint.

Very nice job, Love the factory new look. I need to build one soon.

Very nice and clean build, Love the stance of it sitting on the ground.

Very nice build, love all the detail..

something different, way cool build.

Nice and clean build.. Looks like a 1:1 in some photos.

Very nice build detail and paint. Looks real good.

Once again thank you all for your complements. they mean a lot when they are coming from fellow builders. Jason I will post some pics for you to see here soon. Mike I give credit where credit is due. But the Grill nuts and bolts and pinstrip are only 1% of this build. The nuts & Bolts no one sees them since they are so small but I know they are there, I could of put one of the many grill this kit comes with and the pinstrip was just the cherry on the cake. The long hours on all the fabrication the cutting everything to open hinging the doors hood trunk pancaking the hood roll panning the front and back bumper making the custom frenched double light and and back lights spliting the doors in half filling in the body so the doors will line up making all the custom interior to match the outside and all the custom work on the frame to lay this car on the ground the finish work in the body prep, primer, base, flake, candy is hard to do, this is all my work and their is plenty more. when someone buys a model car, truck or plane they always get aftermarket parts for it including the the model. its all part of the game. the hard part is building it and putting it together. If you chose to make it out of the box thats fine and thats what they do. Me The first thing that gets thrown away are the instructions cause thats doing it their way. I love taking something they made and make it my own.

Than you my friends Kane, DOC and Danno. yes for sure I will be there next year, I always enjoy taking the drive out AZ and hanging with fellow builders.

Im the one in the middle.

Very nice build, looks like the real thing.

Here you go my friend, All closed up.

Thank you all for your Kind words and for your complements my friends, This mean a lot to me and is what keeps me building and enjoying this hobby of ours and the great respect we have for each others builds. I just love building first, then building crazy stuff second. I love the challenge of making something greater then the last even thou it gets harder and harder to keep out doing myself every year. John Teresi you are the man and when you told me what you did at the show that was a blessing and a honor from one of the builders I look up to and whom sets the bar Pretty high. Thanks again my fellow model builders. Roger Hayes I will post some later on today of it closed up...

Thanks for the complements my friends. It took some time to build too. I never thought I was going to finish.
