Well after 3 months at The Art of Design (Dean Loucks) I got my baby back, its incredible. The Craftsmanship is second to none the pictures do it no justice. The interior was done by Tony from Venzano Automotive. Dealing with Dean and Tony was extremely pleasurable. Awhile back I posted the color to try to get some opinions and I received mixed reviews, but I decided to go for it anyways. Now that its complete what do you think. I almost forgot Gary from Exotic transports another great experience.


Thanks ViperD for posting it for me Mike.

You guys should see this thing in person! What a beautiful car and a piece of art! The detail that "The Art of Design" put into this car is amazing. The pictures will never do justice to that pearl green paint and all the little nuances (i.e., engine compartment, logos, lettering, interior, etc.)

Mike, you got one sweet Viper there! Thanks for letting me transport it!

Looks GREAT! Are those overlays on the intake? Custom made or did you find them somewhere? Obviously the lettering is custom, but I am curious about the overlays themselves.

Great look and VERY unique - you won't lose that car at VOI 9!

I like it a lot but wish you went with the same color throughout instead of the 2 tone. Still insane!!!

Dean is an artist and has done some fantastic jobs on Vipers. The orange car at VOI 8 ( Dallas ) wowed the crowd that it had to help DC in their decision to do the Copperhead. It wasn't the same but it sure sparked interest. Your car may be close to Lambo green, but it is also reminiscent of the 70s colors on Dodge products, so there is a bit of a retro look to the color scheme, in my opinion. I know what a great job Dean does, so make sure you bring it to VOI9 --- I am sure it will be a show stopper!!

Congrats
