This build has quite a crazy backstory. Back in 2007, I paid Travis of Scale Designs for this decal, I know he had the artwork. He ran off with my money without delivering the decals. Fast forward to 2021, I commission new artwork with Design Visions, which, combined with the other cars I did and the cost of the decals themselves, cost me $125...then literally a month later Patto comes out with decals for the same car for $28.

To add insult to injury it took me 5 tries to get a usable paint job, the Tamiya Lavender is not an easy color to deal with.

But I finally got it done!

Your persistence and patience definitely paid off. Never seen anyone build this car.

Nice decal work and the purple came out good too. Didn't know Bickle ran this car.
