2025 SEMA Show

1970 Plymouth Haraka Roadrunner

Commissioned by Pure Vision Design to laser engrave 6 high polished chrome trim pieces for their Haraka Roadrunner build. One 2" graphic segment had to be perfectly lined up and nested into the next segment over 80 times across the span of 6 separate pieces. In addition to precise 'nesting', every graphic had to be centered down the entire length of the trim. No margin of error on this job.

An email order for a plaque with an 'encrypted' tagline turned into a memorable appearance when an Olympian walked into our shop.

He was even generous enough to sign Steve's 1984 Olympics collector pin set.
