Motor Trend Classic: A Sneak Peek | Car News Blog at Motor Trend
Posted by rariccardi in Celebs, Movie Cars, TV Cars on July 11, 2010
Like many of you, I suspect, I had the die-cast model Batmobile made by Corgi in the 1960s (you know, the one that fired the plastic rockets) when I was a kid. So it was a real thrill to get the original full-size Batmobile — and its creator, the irrepressible George Barris — into our new photo studio here at Motor Trend Towers for a photo shoot. Wes Allison’s pictures are stunning, and Arthur St. Antoine’s story a terrific mix of hard-nosed reporting and misty-eyed nostalgia (the photo of a young St. Antoine in a Batman costume is priceless). Ask The Man Who Drives One? We did. Arthur even tracked down Adam West, the original Batman, for an interview.

Posted by rariccardi in Featured, Kustoms on November 8, 2009
Here is the info on the newest Barris DVD by the talented guys at The Mad Fabricators Society You need to buy this. See a little known side of the “King of Kustomizers”
Well after a year of working on this DVD I finally have them done and available on DVD
Many people don’t know George the photographer.. He was a HUGE part of documenting our history all over the states and brought it all to the magazines for the world to see…The movie is a journey through 1000’s of pictures that george shot for the mags and his own use..these are all mounted on a 14×17 sheet all hand cut out by Shirley Barrisand taped on to the sheet.. She was a trooper!!
So Brett approached me a while back and asked if I wanted to team up and put out a DVD so I started going though all the pix and was overwhelmed with all the fantastic pix.. but how do you make this into a move?? So I built a rig that allows me to mount my camera and move it forward and back and i’m able to move the sheet left and right… So once I shot that we needed ContentSo Ana Marco (from that mag) set us up with Larry Watson.. so we had him come to Barris and the two sat and went through all the pix and told stories about a bunch of them..(can be a DVD on its own) After that we got a hold of Brad Masterson who is renting the space next to George’s shop on Atlantic and has it set up with a bunch of old Barris Memorabilia and Pix.. George shows us around the shop then we hops into Brads Chopped Chevy and we hit some of the locations the pix were shot at.. After that we meet up with Greg Sharp from the NHRA museum and he gives us even more detail on George the photographer…Along with pictures the are in the movie the DVD will have a slide show feature that will have pix in sections Kustoms, Hot Rod, Bikes etc..that you will be a to hit play and just check out the pictures.. on-top of that the whole thing is Scored Live by the Dynotones…

1953 “Rum Runner” Merc
Posted by RARiccardi in Kustoms on July 9, 2008
Andy Perillo, the east coast rep for Barris Kustom Industries, gets the scoop on this restored 1953 Merc. It used to belong to a rum runner back in the day. I guess they were called bootleggers then. He sold it to a chicken farmer
