The Batmobile

Posted on 12:15 by john cena


Okay, the Mustang was cool but was there a car in '66 as cool as the Batmobile? Customized by George Barris (from a 1959 Linoln-Futura) who has previously done other TV cars including the Munster Coach, Batman's high-tech, gadget-loaded car was probably inspired as much by James Bond's Aston-Martin in 1964's GOLDFINGER as it was its comic book counterpart.
