JollySipper Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Hey, Guys...... Have any of you taken a '66 Batmobile and made some sort of custom from it? I have this idea that the front end would make for a cool rear end treatment on something like the '62 Buick, or along those lines.......Just wondering if any of you guys have had a similar idea, and how it might look..........Thanks!
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 You know it started out as the Lincoln Futura car-of-tomorrow concept by Ford, right?
JollySipper Posted November 18, 2017 Author Posted November 18, 2017 Yep, sure did...... thanks, tho....... Barris got a hold of it and rui......... er, um, ..... changed it to the Batmobile. Just brainstorming and looking for inspiration.....
JollySipper Posted November 18, 2017 Author Posted November 18, 2017 Something along these lines is what I'm interested in, tho this was built from a Futura...... Also, if anyone has used just parts of the Batmobile in a build, I would love to see it......
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 Ah yes...I remember that one. A real knockout. Not the Batmobile you're referring to, but I have this under construction from a later one...

Jon Haigwood Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 I have recently inherited a couple partial Futura kits. Not sure if I have enough parts to build one but have been thinking about what I might put the bubble roof and/or fins on.

Whatever you build from them sounds like it should be cool!I've been thinking how the little light pods on the "roof" of the Batmobile might look as tail lights on a '37 Ford........
