This owner! Make-a-wish etc. shows his kindness. Ford Futura experimental car, used in late '50s Debbie Reynolds movie 'Prelude to a Kiss', then redone by Barris. I think the 'exhaust flame' was a paint can!

Thank u for showing love for the batmobile it’s my favorite movie and tv car and I got to sit in one once at the fair here the only inaccuracy I saw in the car was the steering wheel cause the actual cars made by George barris had a half steering wheel not a full steering wheel other then that the car looked really good and in my opinion the batmobile is an automotive masterpiece of art

I really enjoyed this, Nate. The car looks fabulous and I.. like so many fans of the 60s show... easily identify with your love and emotional attachment to that car... I was 6 years old when the show hit the airwaves and I'll never forget watching the first episode... I was hooked. I do have a corgi Batmobile that's in fabulous condition, but maybe one day I'll get a chance to see an authentic replica or better yet... one of the originals used in the show.

This car was a substitute for the intended custom for the TV show. The show started a season early, not enough time to finish the custom one contracted, so they pulled this older GM Concept car out of a parking lot. It had earlier been in a Debbie Reynolds movie painted red. Then they added the Batmam special stuff to it like the police light, paint job and flame rocket end.

I just love the '66 Batmobile, so much, that every year since it made it's debut in the '07 Hot Wheels First Editions Series, that I love seeing it return year after year. Now, just like the two Fast and Furious Chargers, I have this car in Hot Wheels scale. Also, a few years ago, George Barris took his all original '66 Batmobile to Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale Auction, and he ended up selling it for $4.3 Million Dollars. Considering that he bought the original Lincoln Futura Concept Car from Ford for just a buck.

still the best most iconic batmobile shape 2nd id say was batmobile from Keaton films as both were technically real cars as years have went on I think they've ruined batmobile like the tumbler or even batgirls motorbike I thought both too far fetched and movie makers had too rely on cgi as both dangerous and lethaly unsteerable I wish movie makers kept it real as cgi is ruining car films like Nicolas cage remake of gone in 60secs the bridge jump was so far fetched and stupid if dukes of hazard could jump general lees and land them if was real cages mustang elenor would've bent like a banana on impact as landed and would never have went distance ud need too strap a rocket too its arse too get so far lol
