60s show rods and bubble tops (post pics here)

Heres one i found some years back! it was built by Roy Delaney from lewiston,Id featured in Popular Customs magazine in 1966





This is how it looks today!

 

Great thread!
Here's one of my favorite show cars. The Surf Woody.

 

Love to see the build thread on this. Lots of indoor time in the cool north end during the long months.

 

60's show rod concepts carried to the extreme!

 

The Sand Draggin now restored in The UK !!

Check out the video of it being drawn and built in the 1960's and restored and driven in 2010 !!

Is that Ed Roth T-Shirts Artist ?

 

show rodish?

 

HAHA, when i saw that listed your the 1st person i thought of & was surprised it wasnt gone yet...lolol

 

The bubble cleaned up nice, was that painted on, or a big sticker, or? I'd probably leave it alone, the paint and upholstery look to be in great shape. How does it steer, is it driveable?

 

yeah, how far can you drive it? how fast is it?

 

LOOKS WAY BETTER WITHOUT THE PACMAN!

 

Guess this is better than makin it look like a big dildo.....................gotta love the era these came from,well I do..........lookin good Mark

 

Ya it looks alot better now.

 

Any one have any pics of Roth's 56 ford shop truck, I know it wasn't a show car but I'm building a model of it and I have only found 2 pics.
By the way great thread!

 

X2!!

 

I'm not familiar with this car. Was the Pac Man original?

 

Go to this thread;

And the second clip features some brief footage of Roth picking up a trophy in the truck. But do yourself a favour and watch all three clips, they are out of this world.

does this one count? i think so...

This stuff just has a way of ending up with you doesn't it.

 

Awesome thread!!

 

Alright Mr. Moriarty, what do you do for a livin to afford all of these beautiful cars? No seriously. I am thinkin that building cars for a living might be the wrong route!

 

Where was it listed ?

 

This is a WTF I found. Makes you wonder if it started out as a corvair van.

 

more like the Nomad van of the 50s a GM prototype,motorama show rig.........

 

Those are great videos, and I was wanting to see inside of the truck so that was very helpfull!
I like how Ed was filthy too
