Al "Pibes" Gonzalez - Master Customizer Updated : 27/01/10

Recommended Posts

Wanted to introduce a customizer who really does excellent work. He doesn't have a website (yet) and I have gotten permission from him to post pictures of his creations.

I was introduced to his work while surfing onto Japanese Hot Wheels Blogs. I have purchased a piece of his work and it has to be seen to be believed.

Name : Alvaro Gonzalez
Nick : Pibes
Location : USA


He regularly makes new creations and has a store on E-bay if you look for his name.

Wow, those 49 mercs are awesome. But I think the photos don't do justice. You have to see it in the flesh to fully appreciate the paintwork.

I like the green pickup and the red panel van. The pickup because the are 3 tons of green used. The red because there is tatoos on the sides.
