I usually don't get to excited about what I consider to be a car show only type vehicle, but for some reason I like this one. Ed Roth lives on!!

His builds are always interesting.  He has a unique way of blending fenderless hot rods with customs of the 50s.  Neat car.

I remember when he was "new" on the HAMB and was going to turn a grain truck into a hot rod pick up with a car backend on it. I can't believe how much is skill and vision have evolved.

Fret Not, Tom. I think this will be a driver, he went through a LOT of work to get the A/C working and keeping it hidden. Check out the build thread on the HAMB.

I know he did, it remains to be seen how much it will be driven. It's one of those "I cant see around the fuckin' carbs" vehicles. It's the only thing I don't like about it.

If I was in law enforcement this is one area I would NOT look the other way. :!:
