As Tiki documented on pages 236-237 in the "Surfin' Tiki" chapter in the BOT...

And our favorite Hula Girl, Miss Dinah DeRosa, who made the cover of the OC Weekly...

It's at the "Kustom Kulture II" exhibit running through August 31st in Huntington Beach, CA.

EDIT - Oh yeah, I'm assuming the Tiki Hut was built by Bamboo Ben. Big Daddy Roth gets credit for the Surfite. :)
