Close-up look, insane Batmobile built by Ohio man

I built a custom replica of a 1966 Batmobile. When I go to car shows people ask if the buttons and switches all work. They do. I made this video to demonstrate most of the features of the car, including the simulated turbine start up sound. Finish body work and paint by Mr. Pat Crafton. Here is a link to another video of the Batmobile chasing the Joker:

I would have to agree this one is incredible and the best one I’ve ever seen before. The fact that nearly all the gadgets actual work is incredible. I didn’t think the guns would shoot and I was very impressed that the shoots retracted back into the car. Remarkable ingenuity. I will say for the rockets I think you could somehow incorporate a legal firework or type of flare that can shoot out. That would take that feature and the car to even a higher level. Again this is a work of art and I can’t imagine all the time and money spent to create such a vehicle. Bravo.

I have seen many versions even the ones used in the show BUT this is way next level plus 3!!! You got me at the front blade and the turbine. NOBODY has done that and the retracting chutes. Really outstanding!!!!!

[@Batcarguy]

Thank you. I was the most nervous the first time I retracted the chutes. Everything else I was able to test at various stages to make sure it would work before going on the car. But the chutes were more or less all or nothing. Airflow can be pretty hard to predict behind a car, and I didn't want to screw-up the chutes, the mechanism or my paint. The scene in the videos is the first time I ever tired it with the car moving.

[@barryallenflash1]

THIS is how the car should've been on the show, but George was under a LOT of pressure to just "make a Batmobile". I'm sure given the time he and his crew would've done a LOT more. But hey, he did a great job with what he had and made it one of the most iconic cars in the world!!

The Sunday before school started I begged and pleaded to wear a Monkee shirt out to see my friends. Mom finally caved but said don’t do anything to ruin it. I promised not to and out I went feeling like the shit. Walked to the end of the block and there were my buddies and one of the dad’s with a go cart. Awesome! When it was my turn to drive it, I rolled it off a curb and pretty much tore the Monkee shirt off my back and ripped a finger open along with other road rash. No helmet of course as we grew up in the great days of no safety protocol. I walked back home and when Mom saw the shirt ripped open … the only thing that saved my ass was the blood pouring out of my finger and we had to go to the hospital to get my finger stitched up haha.

My comments on this car was very long i will finish by saying this custom car builder has to be reincarnated to show us what a true customize car builder is and what the Batmobile could have looked like in the 60s if only Barrett Jackson and other custom car builders had the electronics and materials us, sir have done a great job 👍👍

Absolute masterpiece of workmanship! The details of everything is incredible!

[@Wrangler4XEFans]

The attention to detail is amazing. Those small panels that fill the hole when the guns fold out is top notch. What a great build. Thank you for sharing.

[@hugejohnson5011]

I'm glad you noticed that too! It is the details that can make all the difference. Not to mention the guns function! Wowza!

[@TheOriginalCryptoPimp]

Wow. I wasn't expecting an actual Batmobile. I was only expecting a look a like, on the outside. This is awesome.

[@malcolmlittle7795]

Absolutely brilliant! Brings back childhood memories of the original Batman series. Well done!!

[@jamesharrison1279]

This is truly awesome! Not only did he replicated it, he enhanced it to a whole new level! Woooow!

[@Batcarguy]

Thanks. Yeah, it does have a few more gadgets than the original😁

This car makes Ohio look good. With all of the fake everything these days, the authentic features of this Batmobile are beyond compare. An inspiring build with background music to suit. The turbine, flames and retractable chute are out of this world. Thank you for sharing such a stunning creation!

[@Batcarguy]

Thanks! Go Ohio. After all, we taught the world to fly :)

Wow! Would love to see a documentary on this incredible 9 year build...amazing!!!

Thanks! But geeze, it seemed to take forever to make the two videos.

All these years later and millions of us still love the Batmobile what a brilliant idea it was!

I didn't expect all that stuff to work. Those buttons aren't just for show. Nice build!

[@peteabrh-fairest9463]

What an absolutely phenomenal engineering feat. This is like nothing I could have ever imagined.. The sheer amount of hours work and patience to achieve this level of engineering perfection boggles the mind! Wow .. congratulations 👏

[@Batcarguy]

Thanks! It did challenge my patience a few times. To paraphrase Thomas Edison, I successfully found three ways to wire gages in the steering wheel that won't work. The fourth one did😁

[@vetteseller5]

The caped crusader is packing heat... literally!! UNBELIEVABLE fit and finish. The amount of engineering , labor, light and mechanics installation is Hollywood level. Hats off. I'd be afraid to drive it. because it's so awesome.

[@Batcarguy]

Thanks! I do drive it regularly. But I have to watch out for rain 😓

[@duke2304]

No matter how much you see on KZbin or elsewhere the absolute talent and determination of some people is still so impressive. Well done on turning a passion into a reality. Great job!
