It wasn’t until a few years ago that a dedicated craftsman and Roth aficionado, Dave Shuten in Michigan, invested untold hours in research to begin recreation of Roth’s masterpiece. Assembled from period correct pieces accumulated over months of searching, it was built to show car standards and painted the original Kandy Lime Gold and white pearl by Fritz Schenck. Re-creating the bubble top took 13 tries. Under it lay a single formed fiberglass bucket upholstered like the original in metal-flaked vinyl nestled in a bed of fake fur universally described as Sasquatch hair. The instruments are a pair of S-W Twin Blue dials set off by an 8-inch Panasonic TV.

When completed the new Mysterion was acquired by the present owner directly from Dave Shuten in June 2005. It made its triumphant public debut at the 2006 Detroit Autorama which featured a gathering of Roth's masterpieces, a mind-bending display of creativity, imagination and craftsmanship that rivaled the new rods vying for the Autorama's Ridler Award.
Schuten’s masterpiece was also featured on the cover of Rod & Custom with an extensive feature inside.

Immaculately presented, the product of thousands of hours of dedicated work in Ed Roth’s shop in 1963 and Dave Shuten’s forty years later, it is a milestone of American custom hot rod history, the physical demonstration that it was no longer necessary to be restricted to factory-built panels or simple forms hammered out from sheet metal.
