It seems that way. There have been quite a few bubble top cars built (like Atomic Punk) recently, and Steve L is building his T coupe in the spirit of the 60's show rods. I also understand vans from the 60's are making a comeback. Everything old is new again. I guess what happens is that each generation builds their dream cars from their youth as they get older and have enough money to do it.

Mr.Dave... If I have my way... You ''will'' get to see more of these... From me anyway...

I remember seeing the Beatnik Bandit in the 60's, and I loved it then and still consider it my favorite of all the show cars ever

One of my favorites, too. I have a diecast model of it. If I was rich I would build a clone of it only with a steering wheel so it could actually be driven...

Thanks guy's for the pictures.. They look great... I loved the look of the Pizza Wagon... That in the Ice Truck was my favorite..I wanted this one to be remembered for a long time... One off custom... I had the chance to meet Big Daddy Roth.. The year before he died.. Very nice man... I had the chance to meet his son this year.. We had a good time talking about a lot of things... Here's a shot of us...

Great shots Randy.
I didn't always care for everything he did, but they were always different and had unique themes. When I went to the Petersen Museum, I probably spent well over an hour looking at just his cars
