This man and Rat Fink have been a part of my life for a very long time, when Ed saw my work at an Arizona car show, he called , I thought it was a prank and hung up on him, he called back and said “ don’t hang up it’s really Big Daddy Roth! He asked where I was headed next, we met ,became lifelong friends, I attended my first Rat Fink reunion, became the auctioneer for the Rat Fink Shriner’s Burn Center for children for eleven years, pinstriped Ed’s coffin when he died in Manti, Utah, and have missed him ever since.

Love the Roth. Met him in 1965 at the Detroit auto Rama. Now iam with the son at the auto Rama in Detroit. Yea love the roth.

Big daddy Roth I grew up in Saskatoon Saskatchewan, Canada back in the sixties. I bought a Hot Rod Magazine with your work in it and was blown away. I saved the money it would take me to send away to the United States and by a Rat Fink t-shirt. A month later I got it in the mail and I've been a big daddy lover ever since

This guy was big in the city of Bell California 90201 .
