Sorry for the delayed response:

Thanks so much for your kind comments, guys. It has been wonderful to watch as jaws drop, grins grow, and the twinkles in the eyes emerge. I look forward to showing you folks soon!

Thanks so much, folks! It has been a labor of love, that's for sure! The ribbon-cutting will be on Thursday, October 31st, at 11AM, with a city bigwig tour immediately following. The museum opens properly at 1PM and closes at 7PM. Alex will be there in person and as Robin Thursday through Saturday; ...

Holy blood, sweat, and tears! I have some great news about the Fiberglass Freaks' Batman Museum: we finally completed all of the state and local statutes and had our final inspections last week. We passed with flying colors! We will be opening the museum on Thursday, October 31st, 2024, at 1PM. I ho...

It was belt driven, not direct drive.

To the best of our knowledge, we have identified seven of the eight types of books on the Wayne Manor Study bookcase, but we need help with identifying the last one: the eight red and white books on the right end of the third shelf. Top Shelf: 26 Harvard Classics...

Our bat buddy Nate Truman (of Hollywood Star Car fame) put together the Wil Shriner show. It was shot before the Ross Shafer show, but aired after it. Nate was disappointed, to say the least!

The #5 Dashboard, for comparison:

As A Pennyworth said, it is definitely not the #5, which was a metal car built by Jim Sermersheim of Evansville, Indiana, using a stretched 1958 Thunderbird:

I've heard of it...

Due to some unforeseen circumstances, the Fiberglass Freaks' Batman Museum soft opening and grand opening dates are postponed. We have some red tape to take care of, and then we'll be able to set a new opening date. The city of Logansport is working with us to make sure we have all of our 'i's dotte...

We're inching closer and closer...Our 'Sneak Peek' was a success (35 people attended), yielding the constructive criticism needed to finish the museum:
