Michael Harmon, a five-year-old boy, is now driving a Victory Red Vinyl Wrap just for him thanks to Accurate Signs and his grandmother. Michael Harmon has decided that he will chase storms as a grown-up. Brent (Accurate Signs) is installing vinyl on the truck in the photo below.

We recommended to his grandmother that she call the NBC affiliate in Dallas. We told her that Michael's own storm chaser truck was similar to theirs. She thought it was a brilliant idea and sent a picture of her grandson in the truck. The TV station was so impressed with the five-year-old in his car that they arranged a meeting between Michael and the actual thing.

The Ford F-250 Super Duty is the actual NBC Thunder Truck. The truck has an onboard radar, a 2-GHz microwave transmission system that includes three wireless POV cameras, which can be pointed in any directions, as well as dual/redundant energy sources. The truck can chase and report in real time from anywhere within the DFW region.Gloss Wraps
Brent realized that he would need to cut the white vinyl sheet and then apply it to the truck in order to attach the thin lightning bolts. The excess material was then removed.
