Atomic Batteries to Power! Turbines to Speed! Batmobile up for auction!


Check THIS out! One of the six (or so) Batmobiles from the 1966 TV show is up for grabs in England! Cool beans!

And here's something I didn't know:
In the DC comics of the 1950's Batman suffers a broken leg, and to enable him protect the good people of Gotham City, The 'Batmobile' is devised. Robin, his trusty side kick is shown building the car whilst the superhero recuperates- A boy-wonder indeed.
Can anybody verify this?

I once had my picture taken in a 1966 Batmobile when it was at the West Manchester Mall... the interior was a little beat, but the BatPhone was still intact. Pretty cool.

Oh, and HERE'S a history of the car itself for your perusal. Enjoy!
