1966 Lincoln Futura Batmobile Replica

Everyone’s got a favorite Batmobile. Whether it’s the angular Tumbler from Batman Begins or the winged creation cooked up for Batman Forever, the car is a staple of every adventure featuring the caped crusader. Now, for anyone dreaming of owning their own classic Batmobile, this is a replica of the 1966 TV show car.

This Batmobile Replica seemed to be faithful reproduction of the original (#1 car) used in the Batman TV series that aired from 1966 to 1968. The original Batmobile was based on a 1955 Lincoln Futura with the frame professionally stretched.

Inside, the Batmobile gets an accurately detailed replica steering wheel (complete with a central speedo – no airbags here…) and Detect-A-Scope, as well as one-of-a-kind automated roll top dash doors and stainless steel, custom-crafted canopy window frames surrounding the cockpit.

The car features a 390-in 1956 Lincoln V-8 engine and a B&M Hydro Automatic transmission. Gadgets include a nose-mounted aluminum Cable Cutter Blade, Bat Ray Projector, Anti-Theft Device, Detect-a-scope, Batscope, Bat Eye Switch, Antenna Activator, Police Band Cut-In Switch, Automatic Tire Inflation Device, Remote Batcomputer, the Batphone, Emergency Bat Turn Lever, Anti-Fire Activator, Bat Smoke, Bat Photoscope, and many other Bat gadgets. If needed, the Batmobile was capable of a quick 180° ‘bat-turn’ thanks to two rear-mounted ten-foot Deist parachutes.

Whatever your opinion of who is the best superhero, one question is beyond doubt: Batman has always had the best cars.

The Dark Knight has always rocked the coolest wheels in all of their various comics, movies, or TV series, which you think of as the tank-type offerings in Frank Miller and Christopher Nolan’s graphic novels. Black Knight movie trilogy, the brutal rocket-propelled machine in the Tim Burton movies, the brilliantly art deco-style version of the Batman: The Animated Series TV show, or the sleeker, more muscular turn of the latest cinematic incarnation.
