If you can't acquire a B v S DOJ body, you can always build your own. Very difficult to find a useable body unless your frame and mechanics line up exactly with the movie car, even in a reduced scale.
I asked you before, "Did you use any scale models, 3D STL files, CAD/CAM programs, or photo-images to assist you in planning and/or building your batmobile?" Not being nosey, just inquiring to understand your abilities, methods, and level of technology sophistication and how they might mesh with mine and others research.
I don't know your level of CAD/CAM sophistication or accessibility, but I will give you some info that might help you. I remember you said you 3D printed the main gun, so I assume you have some experience.
(1) A life-sized STL file of the B v S that is amenable to scale reduction and independent area/object skewing is available at Do3D.com. The body/skin can be adjusted and/or modified to fit almost any B v S DOJ framing.
(2) A file of your frame and mechanics can be created and the exterior modified Do3D file super-imposed/transparent over them. Then, adjusted for a proper fitting. Body files can be created from this file, etc...

The Do3d file is larger than the real car. I think they went by the inflated stats that were out there before the movie came out.
Is your motor in the rear? I was thinking that I probably could modify it. At this point we're trying to do engine in the front. Not sure if it will work or not, but that's what we're trying. Whe haven't changed the body at all however. Our rear body will just have an empty space there.
I'm in Hawaii now and won't be back until mid-April. Sorry, I don't have any of that info with me here. You would be welcome to come and see the body if you want this spring. I'm a couple of hours north of St. Louis

I did find one measurement on my phone. The width of the interior cabin at the seats is 58".

hey sly, do you remember by what percentage the Do3d file is larger than the real car?

Mine's rigth at 58 also We're at the same scale then. I think I reduced the scale of the Do3d file about 75% to get that size as we are trying to go street legal as well.

so how much was it reduced? The size of their 3d model is larger than the real car. I think our reduction is something like 85% of the real car.
