You've likely seen this Dodge over on East 11th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B...
The art car — titled Painting the Dodge, 20 years in the making — is the work of East Village-based artist Hanne "H7L" Lauridsen.
EVG contributor Stacie Joy caught up with H7L outside her studio on East 11th Street Sunday ...
Turns out that the car is off soon to Art Car World, an Arizona-based museum "dedicated entirely to the celebration and preservation of this popular mobile art form."
Happy trails.

awesome! I like her style and the car is super cool. congratulations!!
I can't remember a time when I didn't see this cute car around the neighborhood. I will miss it!
She also has a silver car, I believe, with animalistic-looking figures on it in a very strange material. Always wanted to ask her how she did that!
This car has been around for at least 20 years, it is a stand out. Can't believe it's still running!
Yeah, what's the deal with the other car - the silver one? Inquiring community-minded minds who will miss its sister-car want to know.
To those asking about the silver "sister" car, Hanne created it as a tribute to her dog, who died earlier this year. That car will remain on 11th Street in front of her studio for your enjoyment.
I hope that this car ends up next to one of Hoop's.
Hi all of you and thanks for the nice comments. I will like to refer to my website www.H7L.com for answers
to your questions. For my two art cars go to Performance.
