La historia del automóvil está llena de mitos y curiosidades… y de mentiras e inexactitudes. ¡Vamos a reescribir la historia! Te hemos traído 10 mitos ó 10 datos históricos, más un “Bonus”, que son falsos… para que luego presumas con tus amigos lo mucho que sabes de coches… sobre todo con tus amigos que no ven Garaje Hermético. 1. James Dean: El coche “maldito”. Vamos con la parte que es verdad: Dean circulaba a gran velocidad y en el cruce de la ruta 41 con la 466 impactó con un Ford Custom Tudor. El conductor del Ford, un tal Donald Turnupspeed, tuvo varias fracturas, pero Dean moría camino del hospital. La leyenda cuenta que “Little Bastard” fue comprado un amigo de Dean, George Barris, y que al cargarlo en la grúa se rompió el cable y partió las dos piernas a un mecánico; y luego que el coche se despiezo en partes y todos los que usaron elementos de este coche tuvieron graves accidentes… 2. Alfasud: Acero ruso. El Alfasud es un modelo injustamente tratado por la historia, porque fue muy innovador en su momento y se puede decir que creó una categoría. Pero hay múltiples “leyendas negras” sobre este modelo. La que más gracia me hace es la del “acero ruso” que cuenta que este coche no tenía la calidad deseada porque estaba hecho con acero ruso de mala calidad proveniente del achatarramiento de las armas soviéticas. 3. Benz MotorWagen: El primer automóvil. Te invito a un ejercicio: Pon en Google “primer automóvil” y te saldrá que es el Benz 1 Motorwagen de 1885. ¡FALSO! Primer automóvil de motor térmico. Porque en 1834, el profesor holandés Sibrandus Stratingh y su asistente Christopher Becker crearon un automóvil eléctrico alimentado por baterías no recargables. Incluso hubo intentos anteriores, como el del químico escocés Robert Andersson en 1832… 4. Porsche: Sinónimo de éxito en Le Mans. La primera participación de Porsche en la 24 Horas de Le Mans fue en 1951, con un 356SL. Pero la primera victoria absoluta no llegó hasta 19 años después, cuando en 1970 con el Porsche 917 KH, ocupó el primer puesto con Hans Herrmann y Richard Attwood. 5. El Escarabajo: Un diseño de Porsche. No me voy a extender porque hicimos un vídeo reciente sobre el tema donde demostramos que Ferdinand Porsche copió a Joseph Ganz y a Tatra… 6. Usar aluminio en el Land Rover: Una genialidad. Cuando en 1947 los hermanos Wilks tuvieron la brillante idea de producir un 4x4 barato no solo pensado en un uso militar, sino en un vehículo sencillo y copiaron el Jeep se encontraron con un problema: La escasez de acero. Por pura casualidad la carrocería del Land Rover se hizo de aluminio, porque era más barato y fácil de encontrar. 7. El Citroën Traction Avant: Primer tracción delantera. Si decimos que el Traction Avant es el primer coche de tracción delantera fabricado en grandes series, sería cierto. Pero si quitamos “grandes” y decimos “el primero fabricado en serie” pues el falso. El peculiar Bucciali TAV-6 de 1922 fue el primer tracción delantera y se presentó en el Salón de París de 1922 tenía entre otras muchas, innovaciones, un sistema de tracción delantera, algo “delicado” y que fue su “Talón de Aquiles” … 8. Ford T: Primer coche fabricado “en serie”. Otra vez tengo que decir, ¡FALSO! Fue el Oldsmobile Curved Dash de 1901, un modelo técnicamente mucho menos adelantado que el Ford T que contaba con un motor monocilíndrico de 1.560 cm3 y alcanzaba la terrorífica velocidad de 32 km/h. 9. VW Escarabajo: Vendidos por “suscripción”. Ya sabéis que el VW, el “Coche del pueblo” nace con la idea, supuestamente, de motorizar a la clase media alemana. Hitler mandó construir una fábrica, incluso una ciudad que aún hoy existe, Wolfsburgo, y para comercializar el coche lanzó una especie de cartillas de ahorro. Lo cierto es que ni antes ni por supuesto durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial se entregó un solo coche a un particular, todos fueron a parar a manos del ejercito o del Estado Alemán.. 10. Coches eléctricos: Lo “último”. Me río de la “modernidad” de los coches eléctricos. Ya habéis visto que el primer coche fue eléctrico, pero os doy otro dato: En el año 1900 la cuota de mercado de los eléctricos en los EE.UU. de Norteamérica era de más del 25 por ciento. ¡Bonus! Los híbridos: Un invento reciente. Depende… ¡y de que depende! De lo que consideres reciente. ¿100 años es reciente? Porque hace más de 120 años un jovencito llamado Ferdinand Porsche, con solo 24 añitos, ya diseñó un modelo híbrido que fue todo un éxito. De ese coche se vendieron 300 unidades desde 1900 hasta 1906.

On September 30th, 1955 the life of film icon James Dean was tragically cut short while he was driving his brand new Porsche 550 Spyder, which he named “Little Bastard,” to its first race in Salinas when he was involved in a near head on collision.  After the wreck, Little Bastard was declared a total loss and sent to a salvage yard. Some of its parts were used in other race cars and the body was toured around the US until 1960 when it disappeared. Over the years rumors of a “curse” began to circulate due to the tragedies and strange events, including one verified death, that seemed to follow the wreckage of Little Bastard, though most claims continue to be unverified. Come explore what Alec Guinness (Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Star Wars original trilogy), the death of racing enthusiast Troy Lee McHenry, the 1966 Batmobile designer George Barris, NASCAR statistics, and an innocuous fire in Fresno have to do with the history surrounding the death of James Dean and the alleged “curse” of Little Bastard. 

On the Freuds, films, and psychoanalysis in the life of Marilyn Monroe.In this episode we are talking all about psychoanalysis. What is it, where it came from, and how it directly contributed to Marilyn Monroe's decline and unfortunate suicide. If you like our content please subscribe to our premium episodes! We begin with a discussion of Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis, and its impact on the culture of the late 19th and early 20th century. Thanks to Adam Curtis for the wonderful documentaries, but in particular for this episode we mention The Century of the Self, a BBC documentary that is one of the few in mass media to examine the impact of the theories of Freud in modern culture. 1 We then cover the life of Marilyn Monroe from the time of her childhood in orphanages on through her adult fame in the post WW2 American Film industry. Marilyn is inseparable from the film business, because of her association with the "method acting" school, Actors Studio, founded by Lee Strasburg with funding in large part provided by Marilyn. Sadly Strasburg's method was fundamentally incompatible with Marilyn personally, since it teaches people to draw on their past experiences to summon emotion for the camera, but Marilyn's past was mostly traumatic and only led to her continued psychiatric decline. 2 We also discuss Marilyn's relationships with Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller, and the conspiracy theories surrounding her affairs with Bobby Kennedy and John F. Kennedy. DiMaggio seemed to be her only reliable friend at times and Miller an unfortunate marriage of professional considerations that didn't work out. The irony of Arthur Miller relegating his wife to a secondary role in a movie starring her, coming from the author of Death of a Salesman, cannot possibly be overstated. Last but not least we cover in detail Marilyn's mistreatment at the hands of her psychiatrists, all of which were proteges of the Freuds, Anna in particular. Sadly Marilyn was not the only notable celebrity to die in the care of a Freud, Tiffany and Co. heiress Mabbie Burlingham died due to sucide in the care of Anna Freud as well. In Marylin's case she was most mistreated by Drs Marianne Kris in New York, who convinced Marilyn to commit herself to the Payne Whitney Mental Hospital in Manhattan (incidentally also the site of MKUltra experiments) where she was sexually assaulted by a staff physician, and by Ralph Greenson her psychoanalyst in Los Angeles who employed the bizarre technique of "adoption therapy" in which he convinced Marilyn to live in his house and pretend to be one of his family. We also talk a bit about Freud's bizarre first trip to America after World War I. 3, 4 As a book recommendation for this episode, we recommend Gloria Steinem's "Marilyn: Norma Jeane" as the most relevant to the subject matter we are discussing. It is not only a deeper dive into the same stories but includes iconic photos of Marilyn taken by the late, great celebrity photographer George Barris, who took the last picture of Marilyn before she died. 5 1.

My first “professional” job in California was associate editor for Chrysler Power magazine, which led to more freelance writing for magazine titles like Mopar Action, Drag Racing Monthly, Popular Mechanics New Car Buyers Guide, Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords, and Scale Auto Enthusiast. These writing gigs were exciting and really got me thinking about becoming a full time staff member on a big title like Hot Rod or Car Craft. I also worked as a machinist at Eric Hansen's Stage V Engineering in Walnut, CA. If you don't know, Stage V Engineering produces a wide range of products for the 426 Hemi engine family. Ranging from complete cast aluminum Hemi cylinder heads to ultra-duty roller rocker arms to freshly-designed intake manifolds, it was a great experience to be part of the Stage V family for three years.In the late summer of 1997 I got a phone call that would literally change my life. It was Ro McGonegal, then the editor of Hot Rod magazine. He wanted to know if I was interested in coming to work for him as Technical Editor. He'd seen some of my published writings and wanted me to join the staff. I must say, trying to remain calm and collected during the interview process was a real test of my acting skills! In the end, I spent the next 7 years aboard the fantastic, glorious ship that is Hot Rod magazine.During the next 7 years, I had the honor of working in the hallowed Petersen Publishing building at 6420 Wilshire Blvd. with guys like Ro McGonegal, Gray Baskerville, Jeff Koch, Terry McGean, John Dianna, Drew Hardin, David Freiburger, Matt King, Doug Glad, Jeff Smith, Matt Stone, Henry De Los Santos, Steve Campbell, Steve Temple, Rob Kinnan and many other professional writers – many of whom I'd been reading since youth. On the other side of the pages, I formed ties within GM, Ford and Chrysler and was granted access to their inner sanctums as part of numerous magazine articles devoted to Detroit high performance engineering. I was also thrilled to have worked with racing and customizing icons like Bill “Grumpy” Jenkins, Ronnie Sox, Jake King, Buddy Martin, Dick Landy, “Big Daddy” Don Garlits, Richard Petty, George Barris, Linda Vaughn, Richard Schroeder, Art Carr, Don Nicholson, Troy Trepanier and many others.Another thing that happened during my time at Hot Rod was the opportunity to appear on Hot Rod Magazine TV, which was then produced by WATV and (as it does today) aired on SPEED TV. This is where I got my first exposure to regular TV work and was able to put some of my training to work. Though there was no extra pay for my efforts (as Tech Editor at Hot Rod I was a salaried employee), the experience was awesome. Quickly we discovered that viewers loved itany time we took the camera into one of the many self-serve automotive boneyards in Southern California. Before long, I hosted over a dozen of these so-called “Junkyard Crawls” and ratings spiked whenever one was included in an episode.By 2005 I had been on staff at Hot Rod for 7 years, that's longer than most Tech Editors – the constant pressure of meeting monthly deadlines has a way of chewing you up. Also, my interests were moving toward doing more TV work and less magazine writing. So I resigned and quickly got a number of jobs hosting automotive TV programming. Maybe you saw me on Classic Car Restoration on the DIY Network, Off Road Adventures on the Outdoor Channel, Rides Reunited on the History Channel as well as some commercials and promotional bits on SPEED TV.

The Mecum October Takeover is in full swing with two live auctions in the books and the third on the horizon. There's lots to discuss about the recent Chattanooga auction, but before diving in, On the Move hosts Matt Avery and John Kraman have quite a bit of car news to share. John gives his full report from the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in Pahrump, Nevada, where he learned the ins and outs of piloting the C8 Corvette and was able to push the car to near its limits. Meanwhile, Matt also has impressions to share on the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival, which took place in concert with Mecum's auction. Both Matt and John were nearly shocked by a Toyota SR5 truck that crossed the block and brought more than six figures. The pair go into the details, pulling out the pop culture reference that helped it bring top dollar. From there, it's on to discussion of Ford's tease of the upcoming off-road focused Bronco Everglades and Acura's hints of the upcoming Integra hatchback sedan. Then, John shares what he thinks will be the biggest bit of October car news: the reveal of the 2023 Corvette C8 Z06, set to debut October 26. Up next, Matt is joined by Chattanooga Motorcar Festival Concours Director Ken Gross. The three-day automotive celebration took place concurrently with the Mecum auction and featured everything from competitive racing and scenic road rallies to evening street fairs full of live music. Top automotive personalities were on-site including Ray Evernham, Linda Vaughn, Tanner Foust, Wayne Carini and Brian Redman. It all culminated in a Sunday Concours d'Elegance, the focus of Matt and Ken's discussion. Ken shares some of the behind the scenes planning and intentionality that went into producing the event, while Matt also wants to find out about the high level judging at the event and how a Ferrari 275 came to be crowned Best of Show. From there, Ken changes gears to discuss another historic vehicle he's connected with: the 1951 Bob Hirohata Mercury set to cross Mecum's Kissimmee auction block in January. Ken shares his earliest memories of the vehicle and why the custom design work that went into it decades ago by famed brothers Sam and George Barris has truly stood the test of time.

Glenn Adamson makes his second appearance on Curious Objects to discuss his new book, Craft: An American History. As his research shows, artisans from Paul Revere and Betsy Ross to Patrocino Barela and George Barris played a crucial and under-examined role in the formation of the United States’ national character. And what’s more, he tells us, the communal-slash-individual nature of craftwork could represent an antidote to the country’s current polarization.

Batman Meets Godzilla issue 2 is out! You may recall we previously reviewed issue 1 of Eric Elliot’s labor-of-love project, with contributions from numerous artists (including Ian Miller, who drew the above panel), to bring life to a movie pitch from the ‘60s. Issue 2 manages to noticeably top issue 1 in numerous ways. In this episode, our review. As 20th Century Fox and Greenway Productions were putting together the pilot two-parter of Batman, some problems arose with George Barris and his car customizing shop, Barris Kustom City. Barris seemed intent on keeping possession of the car when it wasn’t in front of the cameras; Fox’s Charles Fitzsimons suspected that Barris wanted to hold the car for ransom. Some documents, from the American Heritage Center in Laramie via Ben Bentley, tell the story … or, at least, some of it. We examine these documents. Also, a Holy Deja Vu! (or two) from the Dick Van Dyke Show, a French-language record that’s both about and credited to Batman, and your mail about episode 136, “Freeze/Penguin teamup and Dozier’s ten rules”!

John D’Agostino:  Celebrity KustomsWednesday, July 22, 2020 Today, head to Northern California to join our interview with John D’Agostino of Celebrity Kustoms.  As many know, John is a legendary custom car stylist who has traveled the world, attending over 400 car shows internationally. Listen in to hear about how the works of George Barris, Darryl Starbird, Gene Winfield, and Joe Bailon have inspired John from his first custom – a 1956 Chevy hardtop – to the nearly 100 other cars to which he has plied his talents and unique style.  In fact, John will be one of the celebrity judges at the C.O.U.R.A.G.E. virtual car show; a lucky car owner will be awarded Celebrity Kustom’s prestigious “Crystal Award of Excellence.” It’s time to go traditional custom and get chopped, lowered, channeled, and sectioned.

Join the guys as they discuss celebrity automobiles fictional and non-fictional. They also include some odd news and facts like they always do. Included is the story of "Little Bastard", the car James Dean crashed and died in. Tune in now!

Marilyn shares her story of recovery with photographer George Barris during her final photo session at a Santa Monica beach. Marilyn heals from her agonizing experience after moving to a convalescent hospital in New York with Joe DiMaggio by her side in early 1961. She is released from care and greets the awaiting media onslaught outside the hospital with press agent Pat Newcomb. Marilyn renews her relationship with Joe DiMaggio as the couple travel together to Florida. She makes plans to star in her own production of the drama, Rain for NBC television.

(04-24-2020) - Turning the clock back as we remember the late, great "King of the Kustomizers" himself, George Barris.  He joined us on the TAC podcast from his shop in Southern California back in 2015, six months before his passing at the page of 89.     Randy talked with George, and then takes us to his celebration of life, where car personalities talk about the man behind numerous well known TV cars, and classic customs...er, kustoms!

Ian Roussel creates unique (sometime crazy) vehicles that we haven’t seen fabricated since Ed Roth, George Barris or Daryl Starbird. We talked about his first time having a car in the SEMA show, his process of designing and how he developed his skills in fabrication and engineering.  

The accident that killed James Dean was the end of his life, but it was the beginning of a legendary story about the curse of his Porsche, ‘Little Bastard.’ Parts from the car salvaged by amateur racing enthusiasts caused numerous injuries and the death of at least one man on the track. The broken shell of the car traveled around the country as part of a safety exhibition curated by legendary car customizer George Barris. Along the way, several trucks that hauled it crashed, in once case, killing the driver. The car fell apart several times while on display as well and injured bystanders. In this final episode of this series, we’ll take a look at the Curse of James Dean’s Porsche, and when the show is over, you can decide whether or not you believe in it. Of course, the thing to remember about curses is that they don’t particularly care if you believe in them or not.
