After a full year of working on his Impala constantly, he was able to finish his car on time to show at the Vegas Super show where he took home a few awards. Now Rick has over 16 years of Lowriding under his belt, and Van Gogh keeps taking names on the streets and at car shows. Rick has a few more tricks up his sleeve in the years to come, and will undoubtedly keep his tradition alive ‘til the wheels fall off.
