The following Big Bopper replica was built for use in the Back 2 The Max documentary, and was used during the airfield filming - the Broken Hill car was sold by the owner before filming of the documentary was complete, hence this replacement car being built. The car can sometimes be seen at Easternats, the Phillip Island custom car show, or cruising the streets of Melbourne...
The car's features are as follows:
-
