Hey Guys,

Does anyone have a copy of that photo of Batman "Adam" standing on the hood of the Batmobile handy???
I'm looking for a clean shot of the bottom of the cape.

Thanks in advance!!

Original Touring Sign & more--Want it?

feeds@yuku.com (66Batmobile) — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:48:46 GMT

I have always been intrigued by the various touring signs Barris had for his cars. When you start to study them you realize they were all quite different. I teamed-up with an incredible artist (Phil) who recreated a couple of signs as high-quality images. I am going to have these images made into a sign for myself and Phil, and wanted to see if there was any interest out there in other people owning/buying one? It doesn't have to be full scale and could be a sticker or something...

and #5!

'66 Batmobile on The Simpsons last night

feeds@yuku.com (66Batmobile) — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 11:30:54 GMT

I haven't watched The Simpsons in quite a while, but they showed the Batmobile in the Batcave for 3 seconds or so towards the end of the show, episode called "Homer the Whopper."

Sorry no image.

New to Board

feeds@yuku.com (kaberjoe) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 18:43:20 GMT
Hello,

I am new to the board and am just getting started looking around. I attended the POCI show this past week and met Chris and his Batmobile. I had a fantastic time talking with Chris and looking at his car. It was the hit of the show, they were even talking about it at the gas station near by when I stopped to gas up my Bird! I looking foward to checking out the rest if the site and hanging out here when I can.

Thanks,

Kaber

SHORTER BAT TURN LEVER

feeds@yuku.com (gotham citizen) — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 16:43:21 GMT
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but I was watching episodes with the Sandman and Black Widow and notice that the shorter lever has what looks like a wire or string tied to the handle that runs under the arch towards the front canopy and is tied off to what looks like an eye hook screwed into the underside of the arch.

Eric, where did you get THIS one?

feeds@yuku.com (Mark Racop) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 21:09:34 GMT
In case you haven't checked the photo of the week yet, Eric has a surprise for us:

#1 is back--or still there...

feeds@yuku.com (66BAT) — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 14:54:35 GMT
Somewhere on the board here was a post showing a custom Prius in Barris' shop parked where the #1 was sitting before, and folks were wondering if the #1 was still there in the shop.

I have 2 confirmations that the #1 is indeed at the shop as of this week and in it's normal spot. Don't know if it ever left, but it's there now.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE BOARD
