James Dean: Race With Destiny Porsche 550 Spyder

Race With Destiny was a fact based movie portraying the story of the ill-fated love affair between James Dean and Pier Angeli. It was shot on location where James Dean lived and loved until his death at the wheel of his Porsche 550 Spyder outside Chalome, California.

George Barris had become acquainted with James Dean in the early 1950s when visited his shop (driving the Porsche in which he was later killed). For the movie about Dean, Barris built the cars for the film and oversaw all of the stunts involving vehicles.

After the completion of filming, George Barris kept this car at Barris Kustoms in North Hollywood, California as part of his personal collection until it was moved to Hollywood Star Cars Museum in July 2013.

This certifies that this Barris built replica Porsche 550 Spyder on display as part of the Hollywood Star Cars Museum in Gatlinburg, Tennessee is licensed and listed as part of the Barris Kustom Car Collection, either Movie & TV or Kustom Motor vehicles
