Finished in a hand-painted patina, this magnificently detailed 550 Spyder is true to the original “Little Bastard” Porsche driven by the iconic James Dean. Dean zooms off to eternal fame while holding a glass soda bottle in his signature leather jacket with his duffle bag and cowboy boots on the seat beside him. Endorsed by the J. Dean Foundation, the work comes with a certificate of authenticity and is mounted on a marble base.
