Post by itsonlyakit » Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:26 am

Built my first Roth Monster, "Mothers Worry" back in '64. At high school we would paint on old sweatshirts using Testors enamels, images from the Roth catalog. It was tough using a magna-jector to enlarge and draw onto a sweatshirt because the heat of the lamp would distort the image. Roth and his stuff was so cool. Fast forward and Rat Fink still rules, Von Dutch is now a designers' name, HUH ? I have most off the cars to build and have done a few monsters in the past 6 years. Have three books on Ed Roth, very helpful
resources. Hope to contribute to this site now that I have found it. Have lots to build now, even a new "Mothers Worry".
Cheers Eh!
