I built a custom replica of a 1966 Batmobile. When I go to car shows people ask if the buttons and switches all work. They do. I made this video to demonstrate most of the features of the car, including the simulated turbine start up sound. Finish body work and paint by Mr. Pat Crafton. Here is a link to another video of the Batmobile chasing the Joker:

    Many say the 1960's Batman was soft, this proves it was totally badass & awesome
  • If they ever choose to revive the series in the tradition of the original, they've got a ready-made Batmobile!
  • @b.w.22
    When it was revealed that the “bat guns” worked, my jaw dropped. This is so, so rad.
  • Where do I start applauding all of your effort? This is beyond impressive. George Barris would be proud, and inspired.
  • @jeddyhi
    I swear for a second it felt like Adam West was showing off the Batmobile. Outstanding build. You set the bar very high, Sir.
  • @vetteseller5
    and another thing... it's amazing how a TV show from our childhood carries us into older age and rejuvenates us every time. thanks again.
  • "Atomic batteries to power. Turbines to speed." "Roger, ready to move out."
  • Retractable parachutes? And instrument panel covers? Seriously the single most impressive build I have ever seen! The little boy inside of me is rendered totally speechless. 😱👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

    HOLY upgrade Batman!! Well, just like nearly everyone posting, I too grew up glued to the TV watching Adam and Burt take on Gotham's master criminals. I also spent endless hours with my Corgi die cast Batmobile dreaming of what it would be like to drive the "real one". Congratulations. You've not only built a masterpiece, but you've created something that resonates with the hearts of big kids all over the world. Thank you!!!

  • @hagerz
    I'm at a loss for words! I'm 53, and never in my life would I have thought to see a truly functional Bat Mobile! I have seen the original on at the museum in Daytona. Much Respect to you sir 👍👍👍👍👍

  • @nwoking666
    That is beautiful. I never realized how badass the 60's Batmobile was.
  • @bryantsemenza38
    Outrageous, simply outrageous. The 1966 Batmobile with 2024 upgrades. This car has to be put on display.
