In this video I take the 2021 ScottieDTV You Can’t Cool Road Tour to the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green Ky to take a look at the Ed “Big Daddy” Roth exhibit. Ed Roth is a legendary artist and custom car builder from back in the day.I shot several videos of this exhibit and in this one I take a closer look at Ed “Big Daddy” Roth 1956 Ford F100 Shop Truck.

This is a truck that Ed bought new.He took it back to the shop and added His personal touch to it.This custom pickup started life a green color and Ed painted it a pearl white with bright red flames.Ed added some pinstriping to the dash but other than that the interior is stock.
Ed “Big Daddy” Roth was famous for crazy custom cars that where nothing like anything you could get from the factory…He was also known for cool artwork that included these creations with monsters driving them…Hanging out of the roof…And of course Rat Fink the Hot Rod Rat that he created that is still a badge of honor to anyone that wears one..He airbrushed some of this artwork on the bed cover.
