Barris is cool, but I really like the Roth Cars best, The Mysterion was my Favorite, twin T-Bird motors. Even though the road Agent was Corvair Powered................... The Car as Art........................Form over functionality.

I don't think I have seen any Roth cars. Did he do any I would know? Look at the very top of the page, that's the Mysterion. Twin T-Bird Motors side by side, twin transmissions, twin pumpkins in the differential, bubble top, and cyclops headlight. Ever heard of Rat Fink? www.ratfink.org/ratfinkscave/index.htmlRoad Agent was a bubble topped Corvair Motored rod. Other famous cars include: Beatnick Bandit Tweedie Pie Excaliber I have several pieces of memorabilia autographed, he was in Lockport about 10 years ago. there is a picture of him and Stevie J inside the trailer.
