Details

The task of creating the original Batmobile was given to the famous custom car builder George Barris. Barris was given only three weeks to produce the creation that would forever seal his name in the history books. There were just four original Barris-built Batmobiles. Batmobiles toured the country, making appearances at county fairs and race meets. This re-creation exhibition car was built by Jay Orhrberg Hollywood Cars. It was sold from a private collector in Los Angeles during the 1980s to a collector in Germany. It was then purchased by a private museum in 1991. This world traveler resided in the Cars of the Stars collection. Importantly, this re-creation was built on a 1959 Lincoln chassis with a hand-built steel body. It is finished in the classic Batmobile livery of black with red highlight lines and finished with Cragar wheels. The open cockpit is decorated with round windshields, and the interior is tailored with black seats with orange piping, black carpet, a Bat-phone mounted to the dash, custom steering wheel and Batman symbols on the doors. Powering this stunning Batmobile re-creation is a carbureted V8 engine coupled with an automatic transmission. **TITLED AS A 2020 CUSTOM** **TITLE BRANDED AS SPECIAL CONSTRUCTION**
