George Barris, the King of Custom cars passed away today. He built so many cool custom cars, The Batmobile, The Munster coach and Grandpas casket dragster, The Raiders Coach..the list goes on and on.
He was the best. Bob. |

Did George ever build any of the designs of Ed Roth?

Back when I was a builder the kits were $1.98. (of course this was back when you got trading stamps with your gasoline)
