RIP George Barris

[Bigcam59]

A Moment of Silence-one of the Greats has passed on. George Barris, the King of Car Customizers has passed away at 89.. He created more kustoms than I can name, including the Batmobile, the Munstermobile, Dragula, The Pink Panther, the Iverson Drag Stripper, etc, etc, etc. I never met the man but I di have the honor of seeing his shop with my son when I was in California. Rest In Peace, George, you will be missed.

I just saw this news, very sad to hear that! He did some great muscle bike designs. Krate-Mayhem here has many of his creations, hopefully he will share some with George's passing. Rest in peace.
