Awesome!!! Ever since I saw the documentary On JAMES DEAN that was made several years after DEAN'S FATEL CRASH I was amazed by the 1955 PORSCHE 550 SPYDER!!!! I've picked up books about these spectacular exotic race cars nicked named ( THE LITTLE GIANT KILLER CAUSR THEY WERE WINNING RACES BEATING LARGER , BIGGER MOTOR RACE CARS!!! In my opinion these were the most beautiful cars that PORSCHE EVER MADE!! IVE SEEN A Beck 550 and a cheaper kit with VW motor at a Texas has station going to a local car show!!! And I read that when James dean bought his car that year 1955 Porsche only shipped 8 Spyders to the UNITED STATES!!! 2 years ago I watched the MECHUM AUCTION ON TV and a 1955 550 Spyder SOLD FOR 2.5 million dollars!!!! My only chance would be to get a used BECK ,!!!!!! And those have gone up in price !!!! THANK YOU AND YOUR TEAM FOR The beautiful cars your company build!!! Good luck SIRS!!!!!!
fantastic documentation about russ and his passion, very well done!! i met russ @ laguna seca / monterey historics last year with his 550 driving all the way from LA; he is a top guy !
Super cool and well done man! I took my son to the Porsche museum last weekend for the first time and I couldnt peel myself away from the 550. I've owned 911's in the past and now have a 991.2 Turbo but the 550 is super special. Great video and great story. I assume that is your son with you on the ride. Be well and rock on!

Fibensteef Spydler. If you can't spell, what else can you do? Sorry to be so harsh but come on. After 20 plus years maybe you could find a team member that speaks something other than "these people are morons and they'll buy anything" or at least make a logo than humans can read. Imagine how much more successful you'd have been. That said, I'd love to have a Fibensteef Spydler myself.
its 2024, why still make fiberglas replica bodies? Why not turn over a new leaf and try carbon fiber? Or just make the repros out of aluminum per original? Fiberglas is a heavy material and it doesn't hold up well and always warps and distorts. Fiberglas is just gross. Example those horrible Bradley GT things were fiberglas
Love your work... My first car was my Nanna's 1963 VW Sedan (Notchback) and I came home as a baby in my Dad's 1961 356B. We still have the 356 today.

What tires are made today that are the closest to the original Dunlop tires used? Looking for some for a Beck Spyder.

I don't understand...the Speedster turns into a Spyder?
Ya I kept rewinding it to see if I missed something 🤔

Sensational!

I spoke to someone who referred me. I was looking to get one for my 50th, but life is too short...I just turned 45 and I think it's time.
Magnificent!!!
Thanks Steven!
Yay, another kit car.
Did he turn a Speedster into a 550 Spyder? 🤔
@@woodyw6891 That felt like an editing mistake. He was talking about his original Speedster, then all of a sudden it jumped to the Spyder replica
Can you still find an original today ? And how much ?
Millions...😭
I wish I could get parts in South Africa.
N9ce. I hope you guys are able you make them. Hit me back and maybe I can be one of your first buyers. Love the 550s
just out of curiosity.....how tall are you guys?......I'm not sure I'd fit.....lol
Enjoyed that guys, where you filming the drivebys with a drone at 5mins ?👍
No, it was actually looking down from the road above. That road was amazing to shoot
@@CarTalesOfficial GMR? ....or ACH?
Amazing replica.. The sound is not that great. Maybe you need to change the exhaust system?
🇧🇷 show
I need one ☝️
Haha, love for cars and you butchered already the first one you owned???
He made better, he made it his own.
