He sold a rear end, twin 78 Vega radiators, fraim, for $500 to Guirelmo (sp) from Ecuador who lived across the st. from your daddy’s shop in Hollywood The fiberglass body for another $500. He then moved to Tijuana, Mex. In 2980 I meat him in sd ca. I repaired the C4 trans for him.21 yrs later he gave it to me for $500. Since 2017 I have been restoring it. I don’t know how to add a picture on here. I am 76 yrs old. It needs a complete ext. hjdrolic Harley front end and it will be be totally restored. Any information you could give me on this trike would be appreciated. I do have a msg.

Talked with Big Daddy several times in Manti , Utah....gave me a private tour with a friend of his of his first home and garage in Manti......wow !

SHOULD I COMPOUND AND BUFF AFTER CLEAR COAT

Awesome. Simply awesome.

HOLY CRAP! You look just like a thinner version of your dad. I knew him well while he lived in LaMirada. I miss him. Thanks for bringing up these memories.

"Back off on the reducer..." Good tip. Now I know why my gun was clogging w the flake...

I'm going to do this on one of our club outrigger boats

I really like this. Exquisite finish. Very smart work here.

Where do you get your other Roth spray guns I already have all 3 of your flake guns

Looks awesome. I wish a knew someone in the 805 to flake my Dad's old Corolla.

I love that color, does the pearl in with flake dull the Flake? I've put pearl over Flake and it killed it.

Roth is the best in metal flake and pearl 🤙

Awesome!!!

SPRITZ BY FRITZ,

Gorgeous!

Love it!!! I love metal flake!! Good job, man.

I hear the molds for the trikes are for sale near Vegas.

so cool, looks like a 70s dance club

Far~Out! . . . 😎

Denise it's Mike from Bell ! Stay Weird old ....😂 friend... What did you do with those trike molds we did?? I want 1.

Is a 1973 Kawasaki Z1 (stock) considered one of the worlds most famous classics??.. Thinkin' so!!!

Thank you for this!

Hard to believe that Roth converted to LDS towards the end of his life. Doesn't really square, does it?

I live 10 minutes from that museum, I will have to check it out. Never realized they had so many classic builds

that was fun. the last time I talked to Dennis he was under one of these trikes at the new shop on my corner of Gage and Alamo in Bell, walking home from Boyd Coddington's house*, he pops out to say hi and wipes his hands on my white T-shirt lol our S/E region was the best in LA for those cool times. * note to DR, how did we know 'the other' Boyd Coddington and not both of them when we were growing up in the same towns and era? at least I didn't know the famous one til years later when I called him at his shop thinking it was my old pal, odd! btw, how appropriate that you've grown to resemble both Big Daddys, your father, and Don Garlits. all the best!

What a GREAT VIDEO!!!!! Hearing Your Stories is One of My favorite things!!!!! BOOK!!!!!

When I was a little grommet Roth came to my grandmother's gas station In lake Elsinore and took pictures of one of his creations that's when I knew I was going to be a motorcycle guy and I still ride to this day

Ed Roth and George Barris legends

I have a tattoo of your dad, in his striped bathing suit, top hat and monocle…I’ve been asked over the last 20+ years of wearing it on my right arm, from wrist to ditch…I’ve been asked, “Is that a tattoo of you”, I always respond…I wish 😂

Awesome always loved the Rat Fink and everything Ed Roth built. What great memories!

I could listen to this man talk for days.

Lil daddy great to see you carrying on this history-growing up in Maywood I have a few Big Daddy Roth related stories-and my Dad talking about getting his car pin striped by Big Daddy-seemed like there were 4 Roth brothers only one of which I new and have tried to remember his name he used to take action pictures at Bell High School football games and would give me photos of me in action he was a great guy-

Roth was a big part of my childhood ! Love this guy .

So right 🔥🔥🔥🙌

Wish I could get a hold you your dad ..& mine where good friends .He's bike was on the Cover of chopper mag 1969? ...cycle world show..1939

I remember way back in 1970’s Dale and Pat Johnson had those Fiberglass Shells VW Trike in their Backyard…Dick Allen always visited them with his Locomotion Chopper and Cobra Trike. # 6:45

Man beautiful!

Dude please please post more videos.

I love these videos. They always remind me of my Ol Man. I remember hearing the fun stories of you 5 growing up. Seeing the Chopper Mag stuff brings back when Big Daddy pulled him out of high school to run the magazine…..well until the feds told Big Daddy to send him back to school…lol

I lived in Buena Park in the mid 70s and i visited Cars of the Stars and planees of fame. Went in the entrance and was mesmerized by the Von Dutch items in the glass case. Guns, and engraved items. And who comes out the door but Big Daddy. Thrill to death. I was 22

Been to Ted's museum, place is awesome.

I knew the man and his son who built the Collins trikes in Ontario California in the 1970,s they had a trike shop ,,there cool fast and fun

Your Father was a class act. I was fortunate enough to have correspondence with him on pinstriping and lettering. He had how to books that taught basics. He also responded to questions and this was before internet. I was blessed to finally meet Him when He was at the Detriot Auto Rama, I was able to thank him in person as I had became successful in lettering and pinstriping, owning a sign company for 15 years at that time. I can't wait to see His new work on Heaven.

Love it!!!

Love it!!!

Love it!!!
