That's the good thing about building something from a cartoon. You have some creative license.
If you are going to build this car to scale then it's going to be HUGE. If you want to modify it to a more reasonable scale then you really need to start witht the cockpit and design the car around that.
If you are going to fit two people in the cockpit and keep it as proportional to the original as possible, then it's going to be a very cramped cockpit.
This is pretty tight.

This is more the way they fit on the show.

Okay looks like you computer graphic gurus have this one under control. Lets see a scale mock up based on the 89s platform. 140" wheelbase, same interior size as the 89, and use your skills to figure out the wheel size. Good luck.

Well use Mark's trick and see how big they would be. Tell Dan I think I have the wheel and tire issue figured out.

I do it the same way Mark does it. I place the part on the overhead or transfer it to acetate. Using a known measurement of reference point, back off the part from the screen until I get the proper measurement, it is as simple as that.

But really, if you're going to modify the 89 car, then it should be modified to this.

Hello...I'm new to this forum, and was wondering if anyone knows who built/owns this BTAS Batmobile. I've been researching the possibility of buiding one, and would like to get any information I can. Thanks to all who can help.
