Harry, I THINK this thing STARTED life as a 57 Ford Ranchero,with the Chrysler front an rear quarters on it. Really somethin, the fact that the dude could build it while on some REALLY BAD acid!!! :lol:;):lol:

What's that? You're all madly in love with it?

Well, in that case, here's a few more pics!

Hey! At least it has a beer tap. Helps drown the pain.

That is very tough on the eyes.

Roth was too cool for THAT. Dobbertin.... maybe.

Looks like Pimp My Ride got a deal on pink paint and had at it.

It has cool elements, but as a whole, it needs to be in a hole.

Of course, I wear checkered Vans so what do I know?

There are way too many things going on with this vehicle. Looks like it was built over a loooooong period of time and they put in whatever fad was hot at the time! The interior looks like something Peg Bundy would design! And what's up with the pink gun? I can't believe Dupont let them park that abortion near their display trailer! :lol:

I LIKE IT TOO ! ! ! It perfectly exemplifies the '60's Ed ' Big Daddy' Roth look. 'Nuffsaid...............

I guess Roth stuff is a 'you had to be there' or a generational thing...I find most of his stuff to be pretty tacky and tasteless. Kind of like the Tom Daniel kits..zero appeal to me.

I'm thinking that if it had a hood with the engine under it (maybe just a scoop sticking out), it would be kinda cool in a tacky, campy way, sorta like pink plastic flamingoes in your front yard!

It's definitely impressive! It looks like a GM pickup cab in the middle of all that chrysler sheet metal. It does bring to mind the idea that just because you can put all of "that" into one car it doesn't mean that you should! :lol:

I think it will look horribly dated in ten years. Remember all of those crazy ISCA show cars drom the 70s like the mid-engine vette with 4 turbos, etc.

Actually, it reminds me of the SMP 3 'n 1 kits, with all those crazy "custom" parts. Kids would glue all that junk on, not because it looked good, but perhaps because 'it was there.'

Wretched excess! Just like an old Roth or Barris creation.

Ok, here goes-

(donning flameproof underwear...)

Is it silly and overdone? Yes and yes. Absolutely. With that in mind, I actually like it. And I don't like show cars/show rods/etc. And I don't like the roof-the pickup roof (or whatever that is) doesn't work. But the rest of the car, keeping with the silly and overdone theme, is ok by me. Including (especially) the green flames on pink.

I'll even say that it's nowhere near as ugly as the MINI coupe mentioned in another thread.

I kinda like it :(

Ditto, and I usually dont care alot for customs. It's daring, diffrent, and unusual.
