Neat stuff. But the second last picture broke me up. A Rat Fink in a hot rod. I thought I was the only goofball walkin that still remembers Ed "Big Daddy" Roth. I had a bunch of his shirts and built a few models of his customs. Rat Finks - oh my freekin God.

Cool models, gotta agree with Ron the rat fink model is pretty cool. I got sent home from high school about 65 or 66 for wearing a Rat Fink t-shirt that said "69% fewer cavities with Coors". By the time I got home my mother was really pissed. At first my mom thought it was cute shirt but when the jerk principal called, he told her to ask me the meaning of the 69.

I survived the Rat Fink years too.Wasn't that the name of the biker gang in the beach party movie with Frankie Avavlon and Anette Funchelo.Buddy Hacket was the leader.Coffee is kicking in.His name was Eric Von Zipper.I too remember Big Daddy Roth,and Big Daddy Don Gartlits,the Orange Crate,Little Red Wagon,Blue Max,Gene Snow the Snow Man,and The Snuff Box.Thanks for the flashbacks Dave.I reckon that's the main purpose of collecting.I have something I sure would like to see on your shelf,and all you'd have to do is send me a PM with your adress.I don't collect,and my stuff is sh_t,and everyones sh_t is stuff around here. Jerry
