Yes I do sort of remember. His car is car is just amazing.
As for my yellow project, I really never intended to build that car, but rather just use it as a "mock-up" car to design something radical. I did finish the kit, but unfortunately I got stuck with so many other projects that I really never got a chance to make the car I wanted to yet. I'm currently finishing up my 94 Cabrio & a station wagon. I'll post some pix of those once I'm almost complete.
Btw how's your car coming a long?
Kind regards,
Albert S.

Thanks for asking, its going slow but stedy, im almost done with all the body work before paint, have a few smaller jobs to do before i can paint it (Need to build new side skirts since the rear fenders are wider and a rear bumper that fits the rear fenders and things like that)

and this was the last one I finished with the Twin-Turbo kit. The owner hasn't had the time to paint the car yet :-(

both the c124 and s124 look great. The widebody kit looks awsome on the s124. I love the duck tail on c124, is it self made or amg? More pics would be great if u have

The Duck tail is a modified version of the AMG one, It's been lowered & squared off to fit the C124 & it's blended one piece with the trunk & quarter panels as well. I don't have any pix to post yet. Once I'm a little closer to completion I will post some clean pix for you.
Kind regards,

I do have a mold of the wing, but it isn't a complete mold with an inner structure. I made a mold of just the outer skin because it was intended to be used to mold into with the trunk & quarter panels. So I wouldn't be able to make a set for u unless u just want the outer skin.

Would Albert's ( SOCAL Carbon ) build be considered as a VIP ( whatever that means ) ? ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
Wonder if he ever finished the build...

I agree, might have to go with SOCAL carbon. If you're looking for a "one off" build, then sky's our limit. There a lot of custom fabricators out there that are willing and able to build you a "custom" (VIP) car. You just need to decide how far are you willing to take your project? Or a better phrase, "How much $ are you willing to spend?"

Im not looking for a company that can build my car, im looking for pictures so i may get some new ideas that i havent thought about yet, things that i think would look good
The price tag dosent really matter, i build the car as i want and then may it take some extra years so i get the result i want. I have spent a bit over 7 000 $ on the car and i still have a long way to go for get the car where i want, its just a matter of time VS money at the moment ![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
