Solid job Tristan and crew, blending the wow factor of Wacky Whips with the heartfelt storytelling of the people behind the builds. Can't wait to see where Tristan goes with Donut, he's rising up!

I remember this dude back in the day. I had pictures of the box on stage after the paint job. I never knew why i lost contact with him or why he sold his car. I was in the xB community and not part of the mini trucks. I lost my xB (SWATZAUTOMAN, ICEBOX,SWARTZMAFIA) about 9 years ago because of a bad mental collapse. It cost me my hobbies and employment. Since then I've found out im autistic and wasn't handling life well. Last I knew, my old car was in Kansas city Missouri. After sitting on the couch for a few years just staring at the walls, I got an ebike and put 4k miles on the local bike trails.
