The Punisher Sunbeam Alpine in the House of Kolor area at SEMA, built by Kal Kustoms
Cool punisher symbol in the pinstriping
Never seen gauges quite like these before
Ed Roth's Mysterion had inherent build quality problem that caused it's scrappage about 1974, but Dave Shuten built a new one!
The second interesting thing about these gauges is that there are two of each, because they are early power boat gauges from a boat with two engines.
That little tv set took a year to find on Ebay, they are very rare, and might be the hardest thing to replace when making one of these "1960's car show crazy kustoms"
Dave might not be familiar by name, but he is by his actions... he restored Orbitron, built Mysterion, and might be the best sole authority on Ed Roth's creationshttp://www.theorbitron.com/ in the "crew" tab
Pierce Arrow, bigger than you think, about the size of an Escalade or Expedition
The Startix.... what a great name!
Above the driver, looks like a vent
Elegant and simple design to the gauges
Looks far more comfortable than the modern seat foam material, looks like a comfy old sofa
Just below the pull rope is an interesting piece, looks like a cigarette and lighter holder, or maybe pens and paper, and it has a beautiful clock on the face
Nice handles!
I'm completely amazed at the handcrafted wooden mirror, notice that the above and below photos have the light (beautifuly simple) on the opposite sides of the mirror, these are mirrors are on both sides of the rear window.... each mirror had a different dispenser. One was perfume, I forget what I was told the other had.
