The story of James dean’s HauntedLittle Bastard
J
The James Dean Death Car was just a stopping ground for Dean, he thought, waiting for his ultimate racing machine a superior Lotus MK X that was delayed. So it starts with the Spyder, it wasn\'t even the car Dean himself was after. But being able to race again Dean wanted a car for the races at Salinas California.
The Spyder was customized by George Barris who went on to design the Bat Mobile. \"Little Bastard\" was numbered 130 on the front, side and back of the car. It had tartan on the seating and 2 red stripes at the rear of it\'s wheel well.
Bill Hickman gave the car the name ofLittle Bastardand Dean asked Dean Jefferies to paint it on the car. And so the legend of the cars energy begins.... After picking the car up Dean asked Alec Guinness to look at the car and Alec told him the car look sinister, telling Dean that if he didn\'t get rid of the car James would be dead in a week. Alec was right it was exactly one week later that the fatal crash took only Deans life.There would be more curious incidents to follow the hauntedlittle bastardin it’s future.
