To drive a Batmobile so well built that it drives like a brand new Lincoln would be a dream come true. Very cool that someone is actually building them that well.
I still can't believe George Barris got this car for only $1 dollar! AMAZING! George Barris is an ABSOLUTE GENIUS he is credited with building many custom TV show and celebrity cars, a lifelong passion indeed!❤🚗⭐
You have an awsome business building Batmobiles for a living, watching this video is like touring in person seeing the workd you do and showing all the Batman toys and models are impresive. Keep up the good work!!
Wow! What a great video. Mark is a dear friend of my family and I (he was my dad's college roommate) and we love visiting the shop and seeing the cars. If you ever are near the shop, stop in and I'm sure he would give a tour to anyone that stops in. Thanks for the video with all the cool and interesting info about the shop!
These iconic cars are beautiful, and I would love to see someone build a Batcave in their shop or have the cave a working shop. Ever since the show came out I've always wanted a Batcave with my own Batmobile.
This is an awesome evidence and it seems like this guy and shop is a really, honest and genuine group. I love that he has the Batman Shag print on his shelves. So great to see! As a huge Classic Batman fan And classic car collector, I’ve also thought about a Batmobile. I’ll have to check them out! Thanks for sharing!
I place no value on cars and if i won a lottery i would be happy with a brand new Honda Civic. However, one car I have always dreamt about is this one and I could not resist buying one. These look beautiful and congratulations on the fine work these people are doing!
Cool video thanks for sharing I loved watching the Batman Tv show I grew on it. When it came out in 66 I was three.There was only one real Batman that was Adam West he is sadly missed. Hard to believe he has been gone since 2017
I owned a bodyshop, and this guy's work is very STRAIGHT! He looks like the comic book nerd on The Simpsons but w/a sweet attitude. And by the way, a "Lambo" (Lamboghini) is not "American muscle", it's Italian. Thanks for the video.
I would love to have the money to get one of these built. This would be such a dream.. ONE day If I get the blessings from above I would love to drive one of these around the block in my neighborhood.
I wish I could afford one. (sigh). Was wondering where you stuck the speedometer if it has a speedometer? I know the original had it in the center of the steering wheel.
I remember that the original "lead sled" Batmobile/Futura had a 368 c.i. Turnpike Cruiser V8. The 4 other Batmobiles Barris made were fiberglass, made from molds created from the original. These other Batmobiles were considerably lighter and had 289 or 302 small-block Ford V8's.
They costumes, and Batmobile interior, are aerosol sprayed with a variant of the Bat Shark Repellent to keep them from getting wet in the rain. See The Batman Movie for details.
Too bad we can't combine our experiences. I'm from Detroit, worked at the Ford Rouge plant, moved to California, lived right up the road from George Barris's garage and showroom in North Hollywood, worked at Burbank Studios and I DID get to meet Cesar Romero. So I imagine the two of us would have a lot of stories to share.
Yes, I love your mom and I love you and miss your love you have always been my favorite and I love you so very deeply and thank God. ❤ I love you. 🌎 ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Oh my god! AWESOME! Keep it up! I love you guys! And dont thank me, let me thank YOU for taking the time to make these videos without asking for anything back! :)
Columbus, GA Honda motorcycle and Allison boat dealer, the late Tommy Wages, drove the (modified Allison) BatBoat during the shooting of the original Batman movie...just in case you needed that small amount of trivia.
My brothers and I would have a field day with the Batmobiles! We grew up on the "60's "Batman" AND "The Green Hornet". By the way, the "60's Batman was my First Contact with Batman.
Wow the car is perfect, well done, it’s now on my list of kids electric cars to make once my 1989 Batmobile is finished. It seems I am a nerd...... mmmm. Know Expert.
Do you have any info or a link, I remember seeing a Batmobile with a 427 Ford fender emblem. I've seen some Batmobiles with the blue oval Ford emblem, but I could swear that I saw a youtube video where there was a Batmobile with a 427 Ford emblem on the front fenders. It may have been on one of the ones that Barris refurbished?
Dis dude has no idea how MUCH of a UA-cam legend of legends he can be
To drive a Batmobile so well built that it drives like a brand new Lincoln would be a dream come true. Very cool that someone is actually building them that well.
I am a child of the 50's 60's etc. As soon as I seen the Bat Mobile I fell in love and still have that same childhood love for that car.
I still can't believe George Barris got this car for only $1 dollar! AMAZING! George Barris is an ABSOLUTE GENIUS he is credited with building many custom TV show and celebrity cars, a lifelong passion indeed!❤🚗⭐
Great looking car. You guys have done so well in replicating the Batmobile.
Thank you for the work to keep our childhood alive
You have an awsome business building Batmobiles for a living, watching this video is like touring in person seeing the workd you do and showing all the Batman toys and models are impresive. Keep up the good work!!

Labor of love. One of our favorite shows to watch!👍

Wow! Outstanding job on this icon Mark. George Barris would be very proud.

Another fabulous 'Dream Machine'.
I think I saw this car today driving up New Hampshire Avenue in Ashton, Maryland around 5:15. I was very intrigued!
What a cool guy and it looks like a blast working there.

Super cool cars and business. Love the guy with the cigarette and flammable aerosol! :-)

Awesome! Fiberglass Freaks rock!
I wish I could afford one. (sigh). Was wondering where you stuck the speedometer if it has a speedometer? I know the original had it in the center of the steering wheel.
Not all heros wear capes
dynaguy! what a great loo.....
NO CAPES!!!!
True,my dad was a hero, he didn't wear a cape, he just had a growth on his back....stunk like Cheetos
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes!
Keep me updated with your family and I lover her you are a wonderful woman and I love you. ❤️ ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊

Guys, that was an awesome video to watch! Besides it just being "cool", I learned a lot of interesting bat-stuff. :Excellent! :)
Haha well good! The more batman knowledge the better :)
This is so Awesome! Thank you for Sharing!!
Np thank you for watching
Look! It's 'Bald-man'!😁👍
I would love to have one. Maybe some day.
What a nice guy!
The batmobile from the tv series lives on from our hearts which is cause of the great actor Adam West.💖
When Batmobile goes out in the rain , Batman and Robin must be drenched.
It's "Batman," not "Blade Runner!" Never rained in Gotham City in the '60s.
They costumes, and Batmobile interior, are aerosol sprayed with a variant of the Bat Shark Repellent to keep them from getting wet in the rain. See The Batman Movie for details.
Thank you so much I want one so bad
The 66 is the coolest, the Tumbler is the baddest. I want both.
redeyetrucker67 , I have a beautiful Metal Model of The 66 Batmobile from the TV show and it lights up 👍
I wouldn't dare drive this beauty on the road. Defeats the point of a car I know but no way I'd risk it haha.

Really cool... I got some of original megos... awesome cars and collection.✌👽 Great video👍👍👍

You can see the joy
Oh my god! AWESOME! Keep it up! I love you guys! And dont thank me, let me thank YOU for taking the time to make these videos without asking for anything back! :)
Federico Pelayo haha well thank you for your kind words how about that? :)

Mark Racop: Batmobuilder. Or maybe Batmobeelder?
Totally cool video very informative hi from NZ
saw the original when I was little would love to drive one
Awesome video guys!!!!!!!!👌🏼
Sal Ramirez thank you sal
Ur my favourite youtube ur keep up the good videos
geek stop thank you for the support :)
Columbus, GA Honda motorcycle and Allison boat dealer, the late Tommy Wages, drove the (modified Allison) BatBoat during the shooting of the original Batman movie...just in case you needed that small amount of trivia.
the Batboat was built by Glastron
It was driven by stuntman Hubie Kerns
Hi you do great work on the batmobile but answer me a question did it have disc brakes or drums the original brakes
Thank you.
I've got two of them on order. One for in town and one for up at the cabin.
Funny if you drove this car about,i imagine it’s instantly recognizable anywhere and by everyone,every age worldwide.
Best batmobile!
Brilliant!
Beautiful. I want one.
Interesting video. It's too bad the audio isn't better.
BAT TASTIC.......wow
They should raffle one of these off. Sell 1000 tickets for $100 each, so that an average fan could try and win .
Its funny you mention raffle. In the movie "It started with a kiss" Debbie Reynolds wins the Futura in a raffle.
Or 2000 tickets at $50.
I'd be in at that.
I told my dad to raffle off the growth on his back, in 1977 it smelled like Cheetos
The. good model costs over $200k, so they’d have to sell like 2500 tickets.
Ide buy several tickets
My brothers and I would have a field day with the Batmobiles! We grew up on the "60's "Batman" AND "The Green Hornet". By the way, the "60's Batman was my First Contact with Batman.
These are built in Logansport, IN?
Brilliant - nice guy too
Barris sold a car for 4.2 million dollars that he bought for 1 dollar not bad
Yes he did, it was the original batmobile. You can see the video on Barette Jacksons web page.
U guys are amazing
Take all my money I want that
Dan Brown I know right!
Bat turn moonshiners would love that concept
Wow the car is perfect, well done, it’s now on my list of kids electric cars to make once my 1989 Batmobile is finished. It seems I am a nerd...... mmmm. Know Expert.

Been Licensed for the 1989 Bat Mobile yet?
"Not the Cadillac Eldorado? Should I throw away my back pack before lunch?!" 🗨🤣🥪🎒💫 "I was a kid too, I'm really missing that red line..." ☎️🚨🔇
