Looks good, What are you gonna do with it when its done? Where can you drive it?

Thanx..will do.
Will drive it all over...the west coast..do some shows..parades etc.
Ended up manufacturing a whole bunch of parts for it..steel parts and aluminum castings..lots of r&d and $$ investments in that alone..even brcewayne on here was hitting me up for free parts...much as I'd like to help out..guys gotta make a living too.

Once I got the specs on the movie car parts I machined them from mdf on the cnc...

then had 6 made up at the foundry in solid aluminum...

Then its a matter of FX assembly..ie common household items like stainless steel coffee cups and clamps and assorted auto parts to make it look like something..special

[doncc]

Next up on the can do list is bubbled windshields...like the original ImpalaBat pictured here. I'm gonna make a form outta metal on the e wheel and go from there

I see somebody on here having struggles with the 89 bat fill cap location...believe me it's a no brainer...

Built both cars same time. 89 is cool but 66 is way more fun to drive...even if it's a Ford.
