        Comments:

        The Big Rig is one of the last year's models and was part of the "Customs" line where the car came with optional parts to "customize" the car. The Big Rig is a total fantasy
        design, a freakishly small version of a rig. Super weird, this car was actually supposed to have come out in 1969 under the name of "Track Bac".

        Shawn's Take!

        One of the five "Customs", they came in orange, gold, light green, aqua, teal, purple, steel blue, royal blue, light orange, fuschia and magenta.
        Complete, its $50-$75. Blisters almost always over $100 with a recent sale of a magenta at $205.
