George Barris Kustoms & Famous Show Cars
Remember such TV and Movie cars from the 1960's & one such as the Munster Coach and the Batmobile? George Barris began building show cars even way before that, building on his experience through the years to ultimately put him in a class with Gene Winfield and some other builders that are randomly shown throughout our other galleries of car shows . Mr. George Barris is an icon whoes work will live on forever. His creations have brought much joy, laughter and good times to many an event or show that called upon his expert & unique abilities. I personally have not met him but I know somebody who is good friends with George and from what he has told me and from videos and photos I've seen of him and things I've read, Mr. Barris is quite a charming and fun indivdual who is a real go getter from an era of pioneers. This gallery features photos of Barris Kustom cars that he has hauled across the states from car show to car show, mainly the major city Autorama's for over 40 years. Some of the cars he has merely purchased for his collection but oh what a collection it has been. These are photos of just a few that were on display in the Detroit area in the 1960's.
