Close-up look, insane Batmobile built by Ohio man

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:

I swear for a second it felt like Adam West was showing off the Batmobile. Outstanding build. You set the bar very high, Sir.

THIS is the BEST functional reproduction of the most iconic Batmobile I have EVER seen!!! Standing ovation for this job...WELL DONE

[christopherdivirgilio]

Where do I start applauding all of your effort? This is beyond impressive. George Barris would be proud, and inspired.

Wow! I’m 63yrs old I used to watch Batman in the 60’s, this is awesome! I love it and it brings me back to my childhood. Fond memories! Thank you!

This is ridiculously unreal, I can’t believe anything this cool actually exists

[usabadone]

I am totally impressed you did one hell of a job with that car buddy something to be very proud of

"Atomic batteries to power. Turbines to speed."
"Roger, ready to move out."

Best 9 minutes I ever spent on YouTube, I'm at a loss for words, this is an engineering feat of epic proportions!

[winschmitt]

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. 😱👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is not a car, it's a masterpiece.

This is, by far, THE greatest Batmobile ever built!
The attention to details that even the original designers overlooked is breathtaking!
Well done!!!

Amazing work.
I suspect it's not road legal but that flame thrower is exactly what we all need to deal with tailgaters.

[williamstarkey]

Now that is not just a car !
It's definitely a work of art !
This is extreme talent !

[heavi-armed-infadel]

That's even better than the original, the attention to detail is beyond impressive 👏

Many say the 1960's Batman was soft, this proves it was totally badass & awesome

[Aoi-mirror]

I'm generally a fan of Burton's first batmobile, but to be fair this is the specimen is the coolest overall by far.

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 👍👍👍👍👍

[agnow]

This is without a doubt the best Batmobile ever created. It’s like a newer model of the original. Absolutely fantastic!

[patrickvanrinsvelt]

Still my favorite Batmobile and I am so happy that this legend lives on. It is truly a work of art. The retractable chutes are insane.

Wow, what a piece of work. When I was 6 living in Queens NYC we had the only color TV on the block. The entire neighborhood packed into our tiny living room to watch Batman, in color! When it was over we all had a mock fight. Poor mom.
