John, you must be the only person with a 2006 that is being refinished!

Great collection.

Hey John, You seem to have aged somewhat since I saw you in August...you need to get out from the Batcave more and get some sun on you...your complexion really needs some work! Image

Cool. Glad to see the old 4005 find a good home.

I don't really like blueburst or 381's, but I must say that your blueburst 381 looks awesome.

Jwilli....I'm another 60's Batman fan. I would consider trading ALL of my Rickenbackers for ONE of the real Barris-built 60's Batmobile. That has to be THE coolest vehicle ever built.

Cruising around in that car, complete with half-bubble windshields and rear after-burner, would have to make all those Shelby drivers look like a bunch of pussies. I'd even wear my underpants on the outside for the occasion! Image

Darren - Barris' shop is (was?) near me, I used to pass the Batmobile regularly! (and some other strange cars). I'll go over that way this weekend and if it's on display, take a pick possibly with a Rick in front of it. Monkeemobile was there, too IIRC.

Darren - check out this guy here in Kalamazoo - he's building his own Batmobile - Bob Dullam. Google him.

Oh, he's the guy in the striped shirt in our old group photo! Back when he had hair!
