This 4 foot tall cast aluminium Felix has been custom painted by Chick Durbz of Durbz Customs here on the Gold Coast. 100% of money raised including full sale price and commissions will be donated to Allan Clark and his family. Allen is a well known member of the Australian car scene, organising Australia’s biggest dedicated lowrider show, Lowrider Sunday.

Unfortunately, Allan has recently been diagnosed with stage four brain cancer. Allan has given so much to the car community here in Australia and we want to give back and help his young family as much as possible… Lets blow this one up, please bid with your hearts, not your heads and if you’re not in a position to bid please share in your socials and help get this seen.

So… About FELIX: This raw aluminium Felix was imported from America and donated by SEVEN82MOTORS in colab with Chick Durbz of DURBZ CUSTOMS here on the Gold Coast. Approx 50 hours of prep and custom paint work using only the best products have gone into this one off piece dressing him in his LA Chino style. NOTE: On the bottom of this statue is the LOWRIDER SUNDAY logo with both 782 and Durbz Customs on either side.

100% of the sale and commission will be donated to the Clark family by 782 and Durbz Customs. We will put every single cent directly into their bank account to help fight this as hard as they can.

HISTORY: If the Hollywood Sign is the most memorable symbol of Tinsel Town, the giant Felix the Cat, smiling from the rooftop of Felix Chevrolet, is arguably the second most iconic sign in Los Angeles. In fact, the histories of the Cat and the Auto Dealership are inextricably intertwined. The cartoon character, designed by Pat Sullivan, originated in 1919. Winslow B. Felix established Felix Chevrolet in 1921. Pat and Winslow became friends, and since Winslow and the Cat had the same name, they decided to cross-market their brands. The dealership promoted the Cat and the cartoon character promoted the Felix Chevrolet. Felix the Cat and Felix Chevrolet grew up together in Los Angeles. Nickolas Shammas purchased Felix Chevrolet in 1957, at a time when the new freeway system was being built. He knew that visibility from the 110 Freeway was important so he commissioned a giant, three-sided neon sign to be erected at Felix Chevrolet. Aided by the iconic new sign, Felix Chevrolet became the largest Chevrolet dealership west of the Mississippi. While other dealerships have come and gone, Felix Chevrolet is the oldest auto dealership in Los Angeles, providing Angelenos with excellent sales and service for over a century.
