    One of the stars of the TV show Batman was the Batmobile. Here is a compilation video of all of the gadgetry that was seen on the show.

    I love how, even though Batman & Robin are flying through the air, supposedly to their doom, the Batmobile still obeys the road rules, and even stops for the two boys crossing the street. The Dynamic Duo could have splatted on the ground, but, nope, gotta stop for pedestrians and obey the speed limit. Just great little touch!

      The show always had moments like Batman lecturing Robin about wearing your "bat" safety belt, or "always put money in the parking meter", or "always return your library books on time".
      It was an ongoing gag.

    I don't know who came up with Adam West's Batman, if it was him, or the writers, or a combination, but it was brilliant. Almost every word out of his mouth was like a 1950's Public Service Announcement. Brilliant, consistent, and unique.

    The most famous Car Customizer in the World is mostly unknown, Karl Krumme is the concept car builder/car customizer who customized the Ford Futura for George Barris, creating the Batmobile. Randy Wright is the guy who make the fiberglass moulds from the first Batmobile and 5 more copies for the TV series. The pair also made the Paul Revere and the Raiders Coach and many othre familiar cars and boats and air craft.

    Well done. I was a child when this show aired on t.v. and my favorite parts were the Batmobile scenes. Especially when the Batmobile would be operated remote control. Those were the days before pocket calculators and computers. Seeing the Batmobile moving without anyone inside really made it come to life. I've seen pics on the official website and IMO they are not taking proper care of her. I'd "restore" her to perfection i.e. better than when she was on TOS. Batmobile = Ultimate Car

    Definitely the neatest superhero car ever built for a television show. The landing on the bat net at 3:44 was something else (though would have better, not to mention maybe funnier if they would've landed in the car's seats {reminiscent of a Hertz car commercial about putting you in the driver's set). Gee, sure would be helpful to have the automatic tire repair/inflater device on cars.

    Adam West once commented on driving the Batmobile. The open cockpit design captured the wind and made conversation while driving impossible due to the noise. The steering was sloppy and the suspension purposely mushy so stops would look more dramatic.
