View Full Version : Bat Mobile Kit Car botrytis 02-09-2005, 10:32 AM http://www.islandserve.com/~dc99/umcp3.htm Now this would be cool to drive around in!!! Dave Unican_Eric 02-09-2005, 01:32 PM I agree, I have always loved the Batmobile. Its one mean looking machine, Now I also liked KITT as well, But if I had to choose the Batmobile would win. Reel 2 Reel 02-09-2005, 06:47 PM Hmmmmm...that was made for a Lincoln chassie...I wonder if it would fit onto my '66 Merc Parklane.......it just might!!....but for 70 large....I dont think so.... I loved the original B-mobile...it was on a Ford Futura chassie...dont remember what year...I think 64???..... :dunno: botrytis 02-09-2005, 07:06 PM Actually, it was built on a Caddy platform. Dave Nick_the_'Nole 02-09-2005, 07:25 PM The original Batmobile was a slightly modified '55 Lincold Futura concept car, then a mold was taken of the body and the ones for touring and exhibition were put on various production chassis, mostly lengthened mid-'60s Ford Galaxies. And BTW, if anybody's interested, I think the originals were all built by Barris Kustom City. Reel 2 Reel 02-09-2005, 07:26 PM Actually, it was built on a Caddy platform. Dave I always thought it was a 'Ford Motor Co' vehicle.......
