A BATMAN fanatic has forged a living building original 1966 BATMOBILE replicas. Mark Racop, 50, has been obsessed with the car since childhood and spent $250,000 researching and building moulds for the recreations. He and his team of ten staff at his shop, Fiberglass Freaks, work six days every week building the cars from the original television series. Mark said: “The 1966 Batmobile was very special to me because it was such an iconic design."
