Years ago, I was very privileged to view a private car collection. I'm a die hard Mopar fanactic. I wanted to see the Mopar cars this person had. We went and viewed the cars when I turned to the side and my jaw must-have dropped to the floor and I saw The Monkeemobile. I was looking at that in disbelief when the owner said, "You missed this." It was one of the original Batmobiles. When I left after talking with the owner and viewing this perhaps once in a lifetime experience, my head was in the clouds! After years of seeing many incredible vehicles, I once saw a Rolls Royce with an extended truck for shopping that belonged to, I believe Princess Anne of England. The owner even offered to let me sit it the drivers seat. I politely declined. I do not believe I will ever see a collection like the one with the Batmobile.

My father, Jim Stephenson, worked at Barris Kustom for quite a few years. He was the shop manager there for most of those years and I started working there with him in 1973 when I was just 14 years old. My father didn't build any of the Batmobiles, but did do a bit of work on them over the years and I got to ride in the original one with my father in the Huntington Park Christmas parade around 1973-74. That was quite a day too. My father was driving the Batmobile and I was sitting in Robin's seat, but we weren't allowed to dress up as Batman and Robin for legal reasons so it was a bit weird for spectators to see two "nobodies" driving it. The parade was being broadcast nation wide live on TV and by the time we got to where the TV cameras and bleachers were the Batmobile was overheating and it blew one of the radiator hoses while we were sitting still waiting to move into the camera range and steam was billowing out from under the car. It looked like a cool "special effect" but it was a serious problem for my father and I. We were finally waved into the the camera section and then told to wait while the announcers talked about the Batmobile for a few minutes, and just moments before they were finished the engine quit running and then they waved us on to move out of the camera section and my father told me "get out and push the car!" I was just a little dude and that car probably had a half a ton of lead on the steel body, but I jumped out and start pushing hard as I could and, lucky for me, a few other guys came running out and helped us push it out of the camera range and off to the side of the street. That was my first, and my last, appearance on nationwide TV. Hard to imagine that car being sold for $4million. That's just stunning.

There are a handful of additional details for the curious: 1) the high-res 1955 Lincoln Futura footage was of a fiberglass replica (the world's first) that Bob Butts built and is now owned by ventriloquist Jeff Dunham; 2) the Volo Museum 1966 Batmobile replica was built by Peter Borne, not by BKI; 3) the replica shown with the autographs on the door tops was built by John Brighton, not by BKI; 4) the one-of-a-kind 1955 Lincoln Futura steering wheel was thrown away (!) and replaced with a 1958 Edsel steering wheel in third season; 5) the #1 car was driven at 70MPH for the helicopter shot in the Batman movie by stuntman Hubie Kerns; 6) the car that the Barris family currently owns (nicknamed the #2) was built by Bob Butts, and it should really be called the #6.

Too many replicas claiming or inferring that theirs is the original car or one of the 4.

I could swear that I saw one B.M. with a 427 Ford emblem on the front fender. but have not been able to find a video or photo of it. I know there's one B.M. (think it was sold at B. Jackson) that showed a "powered by Ford" front fender emblem. I had to slow the video down and freeze it, then blow it up to see it. Any particulars you have on the 427 B.M. fender emblem or similar emblems would be great. I put the B.M. in my top ten list, maybe #1, of the greatest cars of all time, particularly the Ohio fully updated recreation. Thank you!!!!

He said when purchased, the body was mounted to the chassis with wooden 2X4's, and he had to make numerous modifications to make sure it was safe to Street drive. It was beautifully kept, and drew a bigger crowd than another guy's brand new Lamborghini

The set that has the “ZEF 451” license plate appears to be the episodes where they were in “Londonderry”. It was a format that was typical in the UK at that time.

One scale model not mentioned is that Revell did a 1/25 model kit of the original Lincoln Futura that they've reissued several times since the '90s. It was originally tooled in 1957-58 and wasn't state-of-the-art even then so it has things like a multi-piece body.

I still have my original corgi in the display box with Batman and Robin that I purchased when I was 12 years old in 1966. I think I paid seven dollars and some cents the last I recall was maybe at least five or six years ago it was valued at around $600 only because mine has the gold wheels with the bat symbol in it and Batman and Robin inside.

The one fact that shocked me was the 1940s Batman show. They looked almost identical to the later 1960s show. The batmobile that came later was absolutely needed but the fights were very well filmed and staged. Love how George Barris created that muscly batmobile out of the Jetson's - like Futura. Also love how they sinc'ed the turbine wail to the 1960s batmobile as it drove around. Looks and sounds very convincing. Thank you for this list of facts.

Cool 👍

Interesting story about the numbered batmobiles sounds A LOT like the number of KITT's as in AJ's at the Peterson museum and Joe's in his garage.

@@jayloyrecords Thanks again and will do, yeah there ae literally hundreds more on my mighty list, so it's rare now that anyone suggests anything that's not already on it, lol. I'll probably be at this for years to come 😉👍

1:24 Bat phone, Bat compass, Bat radar & radar screen, Bat fire extinguisher, Bat fire engine battery selection switch, Bat "Emergency Turn Lever", and Bat tuck and roll leather seating. They were certainly ahead of their time in the design, and that's no Bat bull.

#3 has been at several car shows here in NJ over the years. I gotta say, I always thought it was a well done replica, not one of the actual cars! Love the videos, keep it up! 😊

In the late 60's - early 70's, the Batmobile I saw at the Cincinnati Cavalcade Of Customs was finished in a flocking material.

Cool, yeah they were going to do that on the show's car, to be like "bat fuzz", but decided against it at some point.

I say this drive past me in suburban philly about a month ago. it just drove past. I was hsppily in the passanger seat so could gorp at it but it was just 'oh wow' moment

1943 batman had good stunts but i still think 1966 batman was better. The villians had more intrict plots. Also i got tierd of watching batman get knocked out in fist fights in the 1943 and 1949 series.

I went to a car show in the late 70's and they had the Batmobile or a replica. It had scratches and gouges all over it.

Years ago I was watching an interview with Adam West talking about his time making the Batman series. He said admittedly he was a horrible driver. So if you watch the original series closely you’ll see plenty of his sketchy driving.

Indeed, lol.

Jeff Dunham has one of the replicas of this era & also the screen-used 1992 Batman Returns one. He drives both regularly & posts videos on his social media.

I loved that car I've always fantasized about doing Batman in the front seat of that car. I hope it doesn't rain because that car the top doesn't close up I guess it never rains in Gotham city.
