Dr. Ru's full name is Rudy Kutey. He has been a pinstriper for over 30 years beginning his career pinstriping cars and motorcycles. One day, while he was pinstriping a man's car, the man began using some foul language. Rudy asked him what the problem was and the guy replied, "I'm a Doctor and you should have been a doctor, too. I've never seen hands as steady as yours." Rudy told the doctor that he would rather stick to his business because there was no malpractice in what he did!! Friends were teasing him about the doctor's comment and said they were going to start calling him Doc. It ended up being Dr. Ru (Ru being short for Rudy, of course). He is self-taught and has said that other pinstripers told him that when he signed his name, he should be able to put a dime over it and hide it. That's why it is so small. Normally, he signs his name "Dr. Ru, that's who!"

In the late 1990's Chrysler contacted Dr. Ru again and commissioned him to stripe the Woodward Prowlers. The Black Tie and Mulholland followed. As of July, 2001, he has striped 150 Woodwards, 168 Black Ties and 1282 Mulhollands. It takes him approximately 15 minutes to stripe one Prowler, which includes drying time. He striped about 10 cars a day. Dr. Ru has pinstriped several other vehicles for Chrysler, including some antique cars.
