hey OkBatmans,
Had to watch your video quite a few times to take in the breath, sophistication, and details of your build.
Very wicked: I admire your drive and momentum.
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?
Any advice for anyone that might be thinking about building a Bat Vehicle of their own?

Yeah, it's a little tough to decipher what's happening in that video. Are you mounting the engine sideways? if so, will you be using transaxle drive? Or will you use a transfer case like they use in the original car? How are your rear wheels attached to the frame?
Would love to see some still pictures of those things.
Thanks

| Can definitely post some pictures on how I have it set up basically I took a Chevrolet LS1 motor with a front wheel drive Transaxle and rotated it to the back and used a 1998 Tahoe Chevrolet full will drive Spindle set up.

Hope these pictures give you an idea on how we are building it we are basically taking AB8 front end plac in it backwards in the vehicle so it becomes a pusher instead of a puller.. We are not looking to reach top speeds of a 100 miles an hour to Chase The Joker we are just looking to possibly move it around to parades and comicons and children's hospitals

OK, I see.
In our PM discussions on the body I'm making, the wheels are placed further back on trailing arms. Kind of like a baja truck suspension.
So, I think the rear jet intake sections and lower side box would be in the way of your rear wheel set up. We are doing it more like the original car with the rear axle behind the motor.

| Is your motor in the rear? I was thinking that I probably could modify it. To fit I've kind of went off the same dimensions the only difference is Where the motor is set as far as the frame and the rear tires setting they're setting almost in the exact place the original car would set The only difference is we moved our motor further rearward. I would love to get to see your body and possibly have one it sure would save me a lot of time in my build and be a tremendous help. Even if I had to reconstruct the rear of it would be so much Help.. Your guys body looks outstanding I am definitely appreciate any help

| I can measure the wheelbase if you could give me the measurements that you have that might help determine if it would fit like the distance between the front and rear wheel Again I greatly appreciate any information or help on the project I don't want anyone to feel like they're wasting their time with me this is something I'm passionate about building especially what it brings to the whole image of the charity for these kids if you go to everyday heroes for children foundation you can see what we have done in the past with our ghostbuster car and other projects so this is something we've been working on for some time I'm just very appreciative of this forum it has been a big help on information.
