This is a picture of a "Batmobile" that was at a car show in Dublin (Columbus area), Ohio this past weekend. The gentleman that owns it built it himself and placed a jet engine inside as the powerplant. (He would not disclose what kind or where he got it from, though).

It is my understanding that he builds something different every year for this car show. I thought you and others might enjoy this man's creativity. It was a wild ride, as he drove it around the parking lots, to say the least!

Pretty cool... I always admire guys that will dare to build something like the Batmobile you posted in this thread.

That said, I'm pretty stuck on the body style of the 1966 version plus the paint on the 1966 version can be polished...

LOL :)

It might have been Julie Newmar's 1966 Pontiac "Cat"alina, though.
:D
