Alright! The Batmobile minus the bats! I always thought it was a shame that Barris butchered the original car into the Batmobile, is this going to be a faithful reproduction or more of an 'inspired by' deal?

 

Paint it black with red pin stripes.

Neat. Can't wait to see more.

 

Love it or hate it the Barris built Batmobile always draws a crowd. By the time that Barris got the car it was in fairly bad shape from being neglected. I had some pics of it but can't find them now. It's a wonder that it wasn't crushed like many of the "Concept" cars.

This is gonna be beyond cool!!!

 

What body are you starting with? It looks like a good start.

 

That is awesome! More, more, more!

 

Wow!, will definitely be following along on this build.

 

Excellent! Subscribed.

 

Is this in downtown Cobble Hill?
DJ, Dougan Drive.

 

Not starting with a body. It's all hand formed.

 

Nope.

 

Hi,
Here is a great Batmobile build that was pretty legit, if you dont know about this build it may help you as the guy rebuild a lot parts custom to the way it was orginally as the Futura.

How did you make the bodyshell "plug"? Do you have any full pictures off the car or the plug?
