	The firsthand story of this icon of hot rodding and visionary of Kustom Kulture, with input from fellow builders, painters, and hot rodders, and a raft of pictures from inside Ed “Big Daddy” Roth’s own shop and studio...

There is quite a story behind Ed Roth “Big Daddy” and his Hot Rods, Monsters and Airplanes. Growing up in Beverly Hills in 1932 when he was born in a German household. Ed started out learning to speak English and draw. Ed’s dad Henry wanted to keep Ed and his brothers out of trouble as young boys. So he kept them supplied with tools and plenty of supplies and a workshop. Being a top quality German cabinet maker Henry taught Ed the ins and outs of making things out of wood. Ed learned how to make some crazy stuff out of wood.

Ed became Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, a hot-roddin' gear head, mad scientist and struggling artist who financed his inventions by selling drawings and t-shirts at drag events, fairs and car shows. Ed would draw cartoons of monsters that he created and pictures of cars. But when he personally airbrushed t-shirts with the monsters driving the cars, people went crazy and would line up at his booth.

Revell American produced model car kits that featured the "Beatnik Bandit" and "Road Agent". Other model kits included "Rat Fink" and the gang a group of hot-roddin monsters.

Ed Roth's artwork can be found throughout the late 80's and mid 90's in underground comics produced by Roth and Sloane. You can also find Roth's artwork in tattoo parlors and in art galleries.

The doctors said it was a heart attack that took out Ed Roth on April, 4th 2001. Ed Roth has created a timeless monster. Rat Fink and the Gang will still reach the diverse demographic appeal of the young adults of today and us baby boomers of the fifties. Rat Fink and the gang will continue into the new millennium capturing a new group of Finks young and old for decades to come.

The collector’s models of Big Ed’s work can still be found in a number of places. We have located some of the top listings for you!
