Goodness gracious, great balls of lightning!
I was reading more about this curse and it really is interesting and creepy. It revolves around James Dean's Porsche 550 Spyder that he nicknamed "Little Bastard." For those of you who don't know who James Dean is, he was an actor and racecar driver in the 1950s. On his way to Salinas, CA for a race, he crashed his Porsche 550 Spyder and was tragically killed on Highway 46 near Cholame, CA which is about 50-something miles from my city.

The car had its engine and drivetrain removed and put on other cars. The guy who was driving a car powered by Little Bastard's engine crashed into a tree and died and a guy driving his car that had Little Bastard's drivetrain rolled over, leaving him injured. Pretty crazy.

A little later in 1959 when Little Bastard was being stored in a warehouse in Fresno for an upcoming auto show, the warehouse caught fire overnight and the car barely had a scratch on it.

In 1960 the car was being delivered from a traffic safety exhibit in Florida to Los Angeles in a sealed truck. When the truck arrived in Los Angeles, the car was gone. To this day, Little Bastard still hasn't been found and in 2005 for the 50th anniversary of James Dean's death, $1 million was offered to whoever had Little Bastard. Nobody spoke up about it.

I think its creepy that wherever this car went, something bad always happened and how it just mysteriously disappeared makes me think that it really was cursed after all. I think the truck driver that was delivering the car to Los Angeles knew about the car and said "Fuck this!" and dumped the car in a lake or something.

Nobody knows what happened to it.

There's a place in Illinois I think and they claim to have a small chunk of aluminium from the car.

Not quite as big a chain of accidents, but the story reminded me of this little guy.
