James Dean in the Saddle
James Dean, easily one of the most iconic men of the 20th century, was a huge fan of both 2 and 4 wheeled motor vehicles.

Paul Newman – Racer
It saddens me that I can’t think of a single modern actor who possesses the same gasoline powered spirit of Paul Newman, Steve McQueen or James Dean. Not even one.
James Dean and the Little Bastard
The Porsche 550 Spyder is right near the top of my “must-have” list. Sadly, the prohibitive costs involved are probably going to make that impossible however I do have my eye on some of the modern 550s built by companies like Beck Speedster.
Little Bastard
“Little Bastard” was James Dean’s nickname for his Porsche 550 Spyder, it was to be his undoing as an accident in the car killed him in 1955.
