I found this today at my area thrift store...I liked the color and added these
simple old Bat supplies to it...::yellowsmile::
I just need to add the windshield, the front windshield scoop, paint the headlights yellow and add the yellow eyes to the front Mask...Plus put red bats on the rims...::yellowrazz:::
This just the concept for this Batmobile...::thebatmanmobile::
It has the rear end of a Mustang and the front end of a Pontiac...::yellowroll::

That's pretty cool, it reminds me of this one:
What did you use for the fins? They look pretty good, and I'm always on the lookout for fin material. |

Looks like they are from the New Batman Adventures Crime Solver Nightwing figure's backpack. Pretty cool batmobile.

Just keep checking everyday at the thrift...

That's cool dude! To give it a little color you need to add Yellow BAT-SYMBOL logos to the doors, ha ha! Nice Job.

Why, that sure is a cute li'l Batmobile. Like tomstoyz said, maybe it could use a yellow oval Bat logo on the sides. Still a nice job.

I love the front view of this Inzo - real clever. I think it's got a real Bronze age look to it with those yellow eyes and lights.
Also - I do like that collection of figures on your signature! I'm not really a figures collector - but that looks cool. |

I just recently added more Batman action figures to the signature...I choose Batman
figure one from every toy line...glad you like it...
The Tonka toy Batmobile is one of my favorites...
I was given advice from another Loyal Brother of the Bat to add yellow
Bat Logos to the doors...I will be sending the Tonka Bat to the paintshop
this week...

The wheels look great, I like the idea of using buttons as wheel covers. |
