Roth Trike

Looky here, some pics of one of Ed Roth's trikes down at the Peterson Museum.

The paint seems shockingly unRothlike, but who knows. I really dig the general proportions and the way the front end intersects the body work.

I wish they would have had one of these at the Blackhawk exhibit, rather than the surf buggy thingy.



Here is a pic of an unfinished body, off the mold. Or, maybe that is the mold now that I really look at it. See, that doesn't seem like much. Just some long weekends and a month of fiberglass itching.


Bonus sideways show pic from the 60's:


Oh, here is a better one.


I still like what is going on with the one up top more.
