"Real" Batmobile Tumbler WIP

[NASEDO]

Down the street from me the Batmobile Tumbler is being made. The guy building them built the ones for the movie and also the batmobile from the Burton film. I seen the Tumbler from the TDK being built but wasn't allowed to take pics. This was my chance. Although there's alot of work to be done. I thought it was a nice look of the internal structure.

This is being built for someone and will be street legal. There's still alot of work to be done. I know the seats will change, but as far as that I don't know to much. Just wanted to share some pics. I'll also try to update with the finished product. Sorry if my pics slow the thread down.

I told the guy, If I had that, no joke I would wear the Batman costume. I'd drive everywhere, McDonalds, Walmart, Bestbuy, etc., imagine that.

Very cool!

But the thing is...will it actually be able to do any (if not all) of the same things that the actual tumblers built for the film could do? Such as turn on a dime, etc.

If so, that would definitely rock! taking it out for a spin on an empty field and being able to turn on a dime would be my fanboy wet dream.

man, how much would that cost? any idea?

Hrrrm... is a jet powered engine street legal?

I still don't understand how Batman fits and sees through that little middle part, or how the bat pod comes from it...

Dude, with that car, who wouldn't? It would be odd to see the Batmobile show up and everyone gathers around, and some random guy pops out

Looks like BWD's 'Rumbler'. Only guy I know building that, the 89 and a Batpod full scale.

I would wear a Spiderman costume, just to give people something to wonder about.

I'd dress like Elvis. I'd get out of the Tumbler add say "Thankyouverymuch" and go buy a cheeseburger.

The Force?
