Welcome PJ, well you said a lot sadly I don't understand half of it. We say that both of the original 2 Batmobiles used in Batman left England and were repainted for Batman Returns and then later repainted for OnStar. Jay Ohrberg, the guy who did the cars for Batman Returns has validated this. Also Jay built one additional Batmobile that became the Turn Table Car for Returns. Jay was loaned the original molds to pull the body for the TTC. Later Jay narrowed the the rear quarters to produce the Six Flags cars. You can see all of this in Jay's pictures. He said it was the same length that he never shortened it.
All the cars that we have seen pictures of that are still overseas are all promotional replicas. Like Peter Nelson's Batmobile and his Batmissle. In fact Jay built the promotional Batmissiles that were sold to several museums. Again you can see them in his pictures. He said he sold them for $50k a pop.
So don't get me wrong I look forward to your providing proof but I will tell you I am very skeptical because I have heard a lot of unproven stories before. In fact I have heard those stories for 3 years now and still no proof has ever been provided to disprove any of the info I just typed. Actually more and more proof keeps coming out that what I just typed is the truth. I just have a feeling that you will never post a single picture a scan of your blueprints or anything else. I do hope I am wrong. Oh and Nitro it sure doesn’t take you long to ask questions. Instead of always asking how about posting something useful like your build? Something folks can ask you questions about.

Jack we have all been taken in on the Ohrberg cars. Which is not a bad thing, heck his are part of the Returns cars . I still have to look close at some of those pics to see just which car is which. Now for my build pics that has nothing to do with wanting to find out about the real 2 cars. Where the mock up foot accelerator pedal is ?Is there a second mock up cockpit? Where did the side mechanics come from. What planes or helicopter did the panels come from.Front headlights from Honda civic?Has nothing to do with what my garage project looks like.I have posted my finds on the board as well as my not so fines. When there is some one that maybe screwing a CLTC member (know one on the board) I bring that up to DH as well.I have also helped out some here. I just want to know about the real cars. Have some fun with you guys with out anyone getting up tight and share what little knowledge I have.
