A 1966 Batmobile plus the 1989 and the 2005 tumbler will be at the Detroit Autorama this year.
Anyone on this board planning on being there??
Here are the details from the site...
In the late summer of 1965, an all-new Batman TV series was gearing up, with Dean Jeffries hired to build a Batmobile for the show. Along with its enduring popularity, its influence continues in Batmobile designs today and is considered by many to be the Batmobile.
In the summer of 1989, Batman came to the big screen for the first time since 1966. Warner Brothers had Tim Burton bring his unique style to the movie, and Anton Furst was hired as production designer for Gotham City and a new version of the Batmobile.
Looks like it's the reworked Don Currie Caped Canadian/Rivetmobile. That car has an amazing amount of features, and was one of the first replicas to make those features work. Enjoy!
What's interesting (in addition to the site calling it the 1966 Dean Jeffries Batmobile ) is that they make a point of stating it is "NOT a replica car."
