Unless u are driving, it is no fun in the passenger seat. Remove the extra seat and install a mini fridge.

MINE TOO! She drives a Shelby GT500 Mustang daily and prefers we take my SPF for fun, unless it's raining.

Amazing how you can be dead on correct and then dead on incorrect.
I have a list of people that want rides in my Shelby. I would defy you to come for a ride and not break out in a huge smile ear to ear.
Beck spyders are very cool. The car forces images of James Dean to mind. However, you do seem to be in wrong forum for that car.
Does anyone know what happened to James Dean's Sypder?

Is this your verified information? Where did you get that intel I already responded that one died and the other injured in a crash of the two you mentioned. Post the intel I'm going by what has been written about for decades. And up until a few years ago the 1 million offer was still on the table from a manufacturer. Also a part of the transaxle is currently in a Boston build. I may be wrong just post the intel. Just posting verified means zero to me without the intel. Oh by the way you may want to choose your words and smileys better because I didn't see you posting any major car manufacturers announcements prior to it becoming public knowledge as I did on this site.

Yes I saw that and responded to that before. That's really ancient history those parts. I guess I'm speaking on the wreck itself (car body)less those parts. I thought McHenry died while using the engine and the other you mentioned was in a severe accident.
Part of the transaxle was used in a Boston build going to look for the info now.
At the end of video Jack Styles name is mentioned doing a build with a part from Deans Porsche.

Below is detailed verified information on those parts. Body is still missing as stated and until a few years ago a major manufacturer offred 1 million for it.
As stated the wreck was/is located in Banksville NY and that's all I can say and that is too much because of litigation. Contrary to your little smiley comment I do know what I speak on.
Carry on
The James Dean Porsche Spyder Transaxle
Ummmm sorry outdated intel onyour part.
But riddle me this since '69 & 70 is your expertise... has a pink Shelby that was given to a playboy playmate back in the day ever resurface? feel free to ask the registry experts.
Ciao
Edit: I don't mind being corrected if I'm wrong. I hate repeating wrong intel.

Not so outdated when I last spoke to Mr Barris (circa 2009), but you can read into whatever you can find on the web to try and make yourself sleep at night.
As for the Pink Shelby, last heard, it was now painted grey and was seen in Mexico. But again, feel free to show how smart you are and see if you can find something to counter that one on the web.
Troll on my friend, troll on.
