Thanks for posting the pics.

 

I believe that is a clone of an early version. The original notoriously evolved in the owner's quest for car show points.
More than any other, "Scoopy Doo" contributed to the re-thinking of the Custom "Points" system of show car judging.

 

Bailon did some unique work

 

I'd call that a fair assessment.

Bailon was always too off the wall and radical for my taste. I think he added the gingerbread just to add to the number of changes made. But then who cares what I think?

 

I agree. I enjoy a nice mild custom, but it’s kinda cool to see a wild n krazy one pop up ever once in awhile

 

The BF Avery Tractors where panted Tartar Red. Bailon took that color added a shiney coat and called it candy apple red.

 

if one looks at the wild work that many well known builders have done Bailon is not that different - guess had to do stuff to make a name that no one would forget
