Ferbz Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I recently came across your build looking for reference pics of the the real car.....Nice job! 😎 What struck me about the original car is it's crazy caricature-y look. What a wild car especially for it's day! It's got a great story behind it and I'm thinking my next build will be inspired by the 1:1 High N' Mighty car 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By chance I found an 8x10 photo at a car swap meet about 20 years ago and was taken by the looks of the car. It's taken that long for it to come to fruition! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think sometimes ideas need to simmer (and fester!) inside until they're ready 👍 I've been a hot rod/custom car lover since I was a kid but never knew the High and Mighty car existed until I came across an illustration of it that was done by artist/designer Chris Piscetelli. I just loved how he exaggerated the proportions here and there to make a great caricature. I feel like he captured the spirit of the car really well. I liked it so much I ordered a print of it from him lol And then coming across your scale build really got my cylinders firing! 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
