- From the famous Monkeemobile to the Turbo Sonic, a fitting tribute to the King of Kustoms, George Barris at the Dead Mans Curve Wild Hot Rod Weekend V, Mahwah, NJ.

The Monkeemobile was designed and built by Dean Jeffries. This is very well known and documented.
He also didn't build the Outhouse Rod.
Barris bought it
loved that car
@@Diesel257 But that don't mean he built it. It's well known that George liked to claim he built certain cars when they were really built by other people.
@@lilorbielilorbie2496 Right... Which is why I said he bought it. Think before commenting, I'm guessing you have a habit of making these kind of mistakes.
saw the munsters cars at the car show in San Jose Ca. at fairgrounds back in the 60,s when dad took us to it they had the man in the jet pack fly by and it was so loud, never will forgot that day
Wow!! You saw the Bell jetpack!!!! I'll bet you could not wait till you could buy one!!!! Thanks for sharing your memories, Donald.
Barris didn't build Monkeemobile, Dean Jeffries did. Barris took credit.
He didn't take credit, he bought it.
@@Diesel257 He bought it and the claimed "we" built it. When interrogated he claimed that by "we" he meant car customizers in general. Barris was a showman and he had no problem promoting himself by purchasing other people's creations and putting the Barris name to them.
Yup...Dean Jeffries was the man behind the Monkeymobile....
Pay no mind to the mindless critics. Very nice. Thank you for taking the time to share these beautiful machines with us. God bless! 👍🤓
Did he really???
Many of these I have seen in car shows when I was younger. Brings back memories! Thank you!
You are more than welcome, Jim. There were a small number of these built. This one is from the original batch.
Nothing will ever match these classics. Thank you for the tour.
Wow what a great video thank you for sharing. You brought back so many memories of me when I was a kid watching these movies and TV shows. Looking forward to your next video
Dean Jeffries had his own shop when he built the Monkeemobile. Check out the excellent book on all his customs. The Barris shop did restore one of the original Monkeemobiles.
Whoever did the lettering blows.
George Barris did restore one of the original Monkey mobiles, but not without faults.
I have pic's of my wife with her identical twin sister and her brother standing next to and sitting inside the original Monkeesmobile in about 1967.
During the Spokane outo boat and speed show.
The lettering on the stencils and the hight of the back of the seats are different highlights
your one of the few that called it a Goat, i had a built 66 back in the early 70,s 500 Hp at crank
That is because I am old, Donald!!! I was around when your '66 was new... but not as powerful as yours!!!!!
This is true custom car heaven. No one can get close to doing this kind of work.
This show, Dead Man's Curve Wild Hot Rod Weekend, has grown into an underground phenomenon! Check out the earlier videos, too, and you will agree! Thanks for watching and commenting Ken.
The Monkeemobile was designed in 1966 by Dean Jeffries, who was asked to create a car specifically for the show. One was built for use on the air, and another for promotional tours at car shows.
You got it, Beatlesfanze's Tales of Terror and Suspense!
A lot of cool customs by the master, but my favorite is the munsters coach! Would love to drive that everyday
Given a choice between the batmobile or the Munster Coach, I think I would go with the coach, but the mobile would be a very close second.
Yes, it would be driven every day.
Once you hear it running, you may change your mind, but, the Koach is so cool!!!! This is the video of the Munster Koach running: czcams.com/video/hvlaTuU0AtQ/video.html
thanks for making this video use to go to these custom shows back in the day in Baltimore barris was a legend and will truley be missed.would love to drive the munster mobile what a tripo.thanks so much Paul,Maryland.
Tom Daniel's designed the Munsters coach when he worked for Barris.
all barris built cars were never actually built or designed by barris himself but by his brother or his workers and designed by other people
You know what they say, "success has many fathers"!
Barris didn't build the Monkeemobile! Dean Jefferies built the Monkeemobile
SUBLIME REPORT EVER ! 💚💛❤
+1 BIG like👍
Very good video. Thanks for showing everything about the cars. We usually don’t get to see inside the cars.
The beverly hillbillies hauler was built for one episode where Jethro was trying to trade the old truck for a new vehicle, every trade he made, Jed said take it back, so Jethro decided Jed would go for highly modifying the original truck, which was the hauler.
Yes indeed.... Follow this link to see the episode: czcams.com/video/lnOSzKf_jVs/video.html
How’d you manage to hire Michael J fox to do the camera work?
The Turbosonic dragster was powered by a Turbonique turbine engine, a power plant that was commercially available, at the time.
Restored by the guild of automotive restorers in Canada headed by David Grainger.
Well done video. Thanks for your work.
Thanks John!!
Cool cars! The Don Garlits race car museum was really great when I visited it. They had Big Truck parking. It would be something like this, awesome cars.
Beverly Hillbillies truck actually belonged to Aunt Pearl. She let them use it. Jethro drove them to California in it.
I guess it got to stay there because Jethro needed something to drive the family around in.
Love this video. Some beautiful rides.
Thanks for the backstory, Colonel Mark!!
When i was a kid i remember my cousin had all these collector cards of all these type cars its funny coming from a small town in Saskatchewan ♡ bites
So many kids had to enjoy the trading cards instead of seeing the real things, but that is what dreams were made of!!! Thanks for the memories, Jack.
The shaky cam and lack of knowledge is killing me! I can't watch this!
I can't stop shake'n my head back n forth after watch'n this.
THANK YOU! I was thinking the same thing. Every idiot with a phone today thinks they can post videos.
Lol people will complain about anything. If you know so much just put it on mute and narrate it yourself.
Thank you for the walkthrough..
Dean Jeffries designed the Monkeemobile, Barris put his name on everything.
Yes, you are correct. Barris was just like Lowey and even Edison.
AS SOMEONE ONCE SANG, "...YOU WON'T COME BACK FROM DEAD MAN'S CURVE"❣️🥴
Oh, but what a smile you will have on your face from this event!!!! 😉😂 Check out more videos from DMC. Here is just one... czcams.com/video/ETzuOLwwzVI/video.html
glad I didn't have to polish all that chrome LOVE LOVE the Bat mobile
That is still my favorite, too!!!
thanks for the video on george barris cars, remember him from years ago when the candy colors first came out.
Don't wanna burst yer bubble but Dean Jeffries built the Minkeemibile, Don Bell and Chuck Trantham built the Outhouse. George Barris didn't build every custom car, he just painted his name on a lot of them.
It is really funny the Bat mobile has two parachutes on it and Batman NEVER broke the speed limit on any of his shows.
They had bad ass music and some Bad Ass Rides
Gee Pamela, you needed some background on some of these cars
Unfortunately, this video was done on the fly. When one goes to a show, the only info is on the owner's show cards. Thanks to all of our knowledgeable watchers, the whole story comes out.
19:25 - This must be from a Beverly Hillbillies episode when Jethro Bodine became a hippy and customized the family 'car' !!!
That's my best guess !!!
You are spot on, as well as your memory, James!!! Here is a link to a Barris page on this rod: www.barris.com/carsgallery/tvmovie/beverlyhillbillies.php Now, can you remember what you had for breakfast??!!! 😆
Barris had nothing to do with the Monkeemobile. That was a Dean Jeffries creation .Please do not spread fake news
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkeemobile
Ray farner did the out house.along with the Boothill Express.
Parisienne was the name of the kustom, not the source vehicle.That car was built in the late 50s from an early 50s Ford.
When i was in 6th grade the Monkees were hugely popular with the kids and one of the monkeemobiles was on tour, and Simpson Pontiac across the street from my house had it for a better part of a week. They were just opening up the dealership early one morning and I snuck across the street , went in the showroom, ducked under the velvet ropes, opened the door and sat in the drivers seat of the Monkeemobile! Of course when I told my pals at school they didn't believe me.
To bad you didn't have a camera, John!!! That is really bragging rights and a really. cool, memory!! Thanks for sharing, John!!
Instead of. His mind tripping on the "Acid" the "Acid" tripped on his mind.
I knew George and Dick Dean and Dean Jeffries amongst other sellers. Dean Jeffries detested George for buying his cars from the production companies and passing them off as his own. He would scream hearing you call the Monkeemobile a Barris design.
By the way I restored Turbo Sonic and Dick Dean designed and built the car for a local celebrity.
By the way, it does not run, the motor is too dangerous to start.
Sounds about like what people do. I remember going to car shows and seeing someone’s car that you knew and maybe even helped them build and here are complete strangers- new owners talking about the car as if they built it all themselves.
Did you know that George Barris had a brother who built the kustoms?
They both ran a shop in California (Barris Custom City)....Sam was his name. I owned a car they built back in '59.
It was Jim Seaton's '55 Chevy and it's now up in Portland Oregon. We had a reunion get together in October of all
previous owners and even the guy who originally painted it (now in his late '80s). The new owner (Tim) also owns Gene Winfield's "Jade Idol" of the same era and it will be in some of the major shows coming up this Spring and Summer. And here below a CZcams video of my old Chevy just before it was sold to Tim in Portland. czcams.com/video/MX6PZ9Qz-p0/video.html
@@USCG.Brennan Hated the Jade Idol ---- I was going to an art school and some of the motorheads figured - art school - paint - paint car --- So they taught me to use spray equipment and I flopped miserably trying to do a Jade Idol type paint job -------------------- years later I could do it but seriously winfield was great with a gun
@@sue08401 Ah Hah.....and now the truth comes out!! THAT'S why you hated it? Hmmm....... ;-)
Yep...Sam Barris...Passed on ln 1967...
@@USCG.Brennan l Know Gene Winfield Well...Saw Him A Bit Ago ln Pomona @ The 2020 GNRS...Helluva Guy! Lacquer, Like Nitro, Keeps You Young!
Thank you for your good intentions with this video, I just wish I could have been there in person. I just have some advice for you; image stabilization please turn it on and if you device does not have that feature then please use another device that does before you make another video. I became nauseated before I could finish watching.
The dashboard is actually from a 55 Ford car.
the beverly hillbillies truck was used once for granny"s birthday present just like the dragula on the Munsters
Yep...Based On A '26 OLDSMOBILE! ;-)
There was some episode where Jethro had a cool old ‘55 Oldsmobile or something like it and later in the episode he had it crushed into a cube at local wrecking yard for some dumb reason. I know it probably wasn’t that car that was the cube but I only saw it once. Anybody else remember that episode?
Monkee mobile was created by Dean Jeffries you goose
Honk, honk!!! Barris put his name on everything, just like Lowey and, even Edison. Thanks for watching and commenting Peter. By the way, have you seen this Pinto wagon video? czcams.com/video/EhoYGA8P9ok/video.html
Chrome blower? HAHAHA. That would be polished aluminum. Get a clue. OTOH, you may have to actually take out a loan and buy a clue.
its always been called. the munster mobile.....i got to. hang out. and clean as a kid. when. they. where
filming the weekly t v show....
WOW!!!! What a memory, Donald!!! Did you meet any of the stars?? Butch ( Eddie ) is a member of Dead Man's Curve CC.
I'm telling need to check out ZZ Topps rides
KITT will always be my fav TVcar
It's only features are a futuristic dash layout and a " side to side"
sweeping light in the front..
Show producers didn't want anything super fancy
KITT was gay.
Yes, Dean Jeffries designed and built the Monkeemobile, but He worked under the Barris brothers.....and for George Barris at the time. The "Monkeemobile" was considered a Barris vehicle at the time. Tony K., Melbourne, Florida.
Wrong... DJ worked with Barris in the FIFTIES and at no time after that. The MM was Jeffries alone.
Barris lied about building other people's cars for decades. I worked with both of them.
You really do need to bone up on information before you put out phony information. it gets insulting after a while.
Um,no,wrong..............................................en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkeemobile
@@thundernut Child, Please... Don't Believe everything you read... l personally knew both Barris & Jeffries... wish they were both alive to correct all the wrong info on both of them!
@@dougauzene8389 Can you show me some proof sir ?
@@dougauzene8389 Perhaps you should brush up on the real story by reading here

I had to stop. I was getting sea sick. Was Michael j Fox taking cell phone video again?
if you want to see a picture of the original builder of the Monkee Mobile Kleverdrive.com Karl Krumme is pictured on day 1 starting the project for Dean Jeffries, after Karl Krumme finished the car, Randy Wright then made the fiberglass molds and 5 fiberglass bodies, some of the cars ended up being finished over at Barris Customs, all of those shops worked together in some fassion and the talent bounced arround depending on who needed what.
Thanks for more of the back story, Karl!! What where you working on. a clay or plaster?? How many companies were involved in the development?? I see you were also involved with the Munster Koach, too!!!
@@wheelzeventztv5192 on these custom cars my dad, Karl Krumme used wood patterns and did all of the sheetmetal forming like an artist.
I know when he designed and built the first Pantera #1 he made a clay model of the car first and it was right next to the car he fabricated.
He must have been a metalsmith par excellence!! Do you have photos?? If so, get them published in a book!!! Thanks for these nuggets from behind the scenes, Karl !!
You should not make comments on some cars you don’t know the true info on. Very frustrating...
The Parisian was built in Joisey
apart from certain points of view, we are well in the era: retroolstagie of Delachepelle, Delahaye....👌
See the actual builder of the Monkee Mobile, Pictured at kleverdrive.com starting the Monkee Mobile customization in Dean Jeffries Shop. George Barris called him the Bondo King.
Thanks Karl!
Dean Jefferies use to call George Barris a few things too..thief and liar for starters..
Wow, love the mustrers tv show
GAVE ME A SEIZURE !!! im dead
Another largely inaccurate video...Yawn...
Why was the Munsters Koach back doors that cream, yellow coloure?
Good question, Ranger. Maybe to " imitate" the wicker trim used on some of the finer, custom coaches of the '20's?? Thanks for watching and commenting. By the way, you may enjoy this video, too: studio.czcams.com/users/videoU1vRKdXuwpU/edit
@@wheelzeventztv5192 sounds good, great video too 🍺
I wanted to gives “cred” to Dean Jeffries but I see it has already been given...should know what you talking about before posting...well documented and known Barrie always tried to take credit but it was not his creation, ie: The Monkeemobile..
I don't think 'quite a few' Lincoln Futuras were made. There was only one, which was built as a concept car in 1955. George Barris had a further 4 Batmobiles made, 3 of which were 1966 Ford Galaxies with Fibreglass bodies, the 4th was based on a 58 Ford Thunderbird.
I think he ment quite a few batmobles were made.
The TBird based BATMOBILE was a confiscation from a Midwest builder, sat in The side yard until 1984 when Bob Butts from San Diego bought it. His shop restored it and the cycle to very high standard.
Rick Rothermel is that the shop that was over by Santee/Elcajon area? They had other movie and tv cars.
Yes, Tom. That was Bob's place.
Rick Rothermel the last time I was there they had two or three batmobles being restored and a red and white futura I think.
Are they REALLY all Barris cars??? The monkey mobile was not. Barris only bought it, people only assume it was built by him. I did for a long time, until I learned the truth. An awesome customizer to be certain, but not the only iconic designer.
Sam Barris was the creative brother.
saw the batboat and batmobile at a show together
It is always cool to see all of the " bat vehicles "!!! You will enjoy this video of so many TV cars: studio.czcams.com/users/videoU1vRKdXuwpU/edit Thanks for watching and commenting, Donald! Stay tuned to this bat channel..... 😉😆
The Outhouse has Hillborn Fuel Injectors on it ... NOT carbs!
Thanks for the correction, Doc, What a faux pas!!!
Need to feature some of ZZ Topps rides
Which one is this of the Monster mobile's...I know they made three of them I already saw number three and it looks a little different in the engine compartment then this...So is this number 1 or 2..🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
The one Butch owns is the #3 car.small block chev.fake carbs.#2 car was built and sold to a private collector, #1 sat in Barris customs.
Where is THE CAR it’s one of George Barris creations
Barris was associated with so many, iconic cars they would fill a 2 level parking lot and would be one, great, show!!!!! Thanks for watching and commenting BlowTorchGuySeries
Is the cameraman pissed
Does anybody know where the real Monkeemobile is this year 2020??
A private collector has it. Pretty sure there is an interview on YT somewhere as i remeber he showed the evidence that his car was the original car, the one Barris restored (ie mutilated) was thankfully one of the copies.
@@martinharris5017 Thanks Dude I will try and find it
@@martinharris5017 This could be it czcams.com/video/PyHXHA7URUg/video.html
@@nw8000 No worries :)
3 1/2 minutes is all I could take...
Thanks for trying..
hate to get caught in the rain driving the monkey machine
Ahh, Angela, you know the sun always shines in the sitcoms!!!!😄😉
Great video and info. Thanks.
WHT YA AENT PEOPLE BUILDING STUFF LIKE THIS ANYMORE?
They are. Dave Shuten, Fritz and Mark Moriarity. Look them up.
The monkey mobile was not build by Barris... Barris was a fraud on that one !!!
Barris, and Lowey, for that matter, was like the Edison of the kustom world. He put his name on everything which came across his desk.
@@wheelzeventztv5192 so what I think he’s a fraud he claimed he built the monkey Mobile and he didn’t that ruined his credibility with me
Very understandable. Unfortunately, this is not unusual.
Why is the back door yellow
Cool beans? Who is the guy narrating this? Drag chutes are "cute"? Erik Estrada looking handsome? This guy should stick to narrating flower shows. FABULOUS!
that last car was a 19962 Ford not a Pontiac SO HOW COULD IT BE BASED AFTER A PONTIAC
DEAN JEFFREY'S BUILT THE MONKEY MOBILE.
Can't watch this video. Cameraman has the shakes.
NO "BEACH BOYS LITTLE DEUCE COUPE"😥
Not at that show, in that display, but, outside..... czcams.com/video/ZEUVkkll9-c/video.html
Thanks for watching and commenting, Patrick!
Yes. Jeffries built the monkey car
hey buddy, stay out a that V , if n u know wuts good 4 you! €:`
This dude needs to do his research better, so he knows what he talking about. This guy is killin me here, the Hillbillies truck is from the remake. I can't do this anymore.
It's a girl... Her name is Pamela...
Cut her some slack "DUDE"
I couldn't listen to that voice anymore after about 2 minutes...had to mute it.
Obviously, I am NOT a paid actress!!!!!!! Glad you enjoyed the video anyway!!! 😉😆
The monkeys cars is not a Barr is car it was built by Dean jeffries not Barr is please do your reasearch
Barris owned one of the original two and modified it. The Sonic car is at the Guild in Bradford Ontario they restored the car with out the jet motor you can see it on Restoration Garage show
@@jcerullo5015 Barris bought the Monkeemobile from Dean Jefferies, the builder.
If you had an out house they didn't use toilet paper they used Sear catalogs ect..
And, if you used it up because you had a large family ( the spring and fall catalogs were THICK!!! ) you used a corn cob... 😂😉
What's a deam man?
You are one of few who caught that slip " Dead Mans Curve "
On Barrett-Jackson they sold the original Batmobile number "one" for $5000000.. I heard and saw there was 16 made for the show they all look exactly the same... so the guy on Barrett-Jackson did he really buy number one or did he buy number 12 who knows... as long as they get their Commission they could care less..💰💰💰💰👋
There were only two made
Could have been a great video but the camera work is ATROCIOUS. Don’t do anymore like this PLEASE!!!!!!
I am getting dizzy watching this
I was out as soon as he said "Trips on top"
She's a girl... Pamela
I wonder if all of the cars smell like grandmas house?
Great question, Kevin!!!! No, they did not have that " little ol' lady " smell...
Kills me to hear you say that
He has that voice like a Hitmantest he could put you to sleep within 2 minutes I can't stop falling asleep my wife had to slap me in the back of the head about every 2 minutes to wake up to finish watching this video I'm not sure if it was his voice or maybe he smoked too much weed not sure what it was they should have put some music on...🔊😴😴🏃♂️💨💨
The blue car with the lift kit was ruined.
The Belvedere was too high. I built super jacked up cars back in the day but I wouldn’t have jacked up that one. At least not near that high.
Isn't it Barrus?
Sorry, no, it is Barris.
Yuck
For crap sake quit giving Barris credit for the monkey mobile
