George Barris shop tour

OK, so this actually happened last year, but, I finally got around to posting all the pics I took onto a photobucket page to share. The Hot Wheels design team (well, some of us) went up to George's shop for a very cool personal tour:

Nice pic's thanks for sharing with us.

 

sounds like a cool job

 

So was the Batmobile there?
Just kidding.. great pics, regardless of our feelings about George Barris and his "talent" he is a big part of car history in America and especially HollyWood.
Thanks again...

 

cool pics.. that orange plymouth must be the treasure hunt I just picked up

 

Lucky!!!

 

I'm glad everyone has enjoyed the pics. Yeah, I think there were 3 of those Batmobiles there at the time of our visit.

Yes, this year's treasure hunt deco is based on my Plymouth. The casting itself, however, is an existing one they've had for a few years and is actually based on another person's car (not just a stock Plymouth) That's why it has the '58 lower valence on it.

 

cool pics, Awsome job!
