bobthehobbyguy Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Cool. Who's going to be the first to build a model of it.
Harry P. Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 That would be interesting to see here in scale.
unclescott58 Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 This is not the first time I've seen pictures of this car. But it's the first time I've seen good clear pictures of it restored back to its glory. I kind of like the car. It looks like something Batman would have driven in the early 60's. And I too would love to see somebody do a model of it. I'm afraid it's beyond my skills. I do plan on making my Monogram Predicta and MPC Fireball 500 into pseudo Batmobiles. But only by painting them black and adding red Bat logos to the doors. Scott
bobthehobbyguy Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Interest idea of the predicta done as batmobile. I believe somebody did a version Fireball 500 as a car for Robin. Another idea would be the Monogram 58 tbird.
jbwelda Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 that windshield needs to be cut down some and either those photos are distorted or it needs a few more inches added to its track. as is it looks too much like a kiddie car to me. jb
gtx6970 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 The original TV series Batmobile sold for $4.2 million last year. How much will this one go for? My guess, it will not bring a tenth of the that
Custom Hearse Posted November 18, 2014 Author Posted November 18, 2014 Probably not, but it is something that no'one else has!
