Dunno 'bout that one, but Big Daddy Roth was responsible for "THe Surfite":
Then there was George Barris's entry:
Or are you referring to Bruce Myers' "Manx"?
Or something else, all together...

I remember Jon. He seemed to be one of those guys with a ton of knowledge and always willing to help out. Dang, gone way too young. I didn't realize he was up in Austin, for some reason I thought he was up north of the border.

Vintage jon
I have a new surf bug in my parts bin.
I remember him saying SRV played thru two Twin Reverbs in his parking lot right before the chopper went down - His words.

Always wanted the dune buggy Steve McQueen drove in the film The Thomas Crown Affair.
