    I thought it would be cool to have a thread with pics of 60s show rods and bubble tops. If you have any pics please post them here.

    Thanks

    oh yeah and i always liked anthony's "brown neck bandito"
    he ended up cutting the bubble top into a "t"-top. I guess it got too hot inside?

  25. Dandy bunch of old kustoms. There were lots of them pictured in the hot rod magazines of the 50s and 60s. I have a few of those small mags out in the garage somewhere. I stumble onto them from time to time and thumb thru them. Some similar type stuff in Daryl Starbird's museum near Grand Lake in Oklahoma.

    I think I like some of its earlier iterations better. I love the quad headlights, I think they look great on Vettes and 2-seat 'birds.

    This is one of my all-time favorite cars. I wonder if anyone else has more as well.

    Holy crap you're amazing, I've posted a thread looking for more pics of the car before and only got a few responses. I've even contacted Primedia (lowrider magazine) looking for pics becuase I know they did a feature on Ron about 16 years ago and hes mentioned a bunch on there page on the history of lowriding. Thanks for the pics.:eek:
