Hey Shaggy good eyesight there. I was thinking Acura Integra seats but Trans Am seats would probably fit my big body better. I am going to check my car books but give me an e-mail if you figure out the year...I'll do the same.....BWD

They are definately 3rd Generation, 1982 to 1992, chances are you could walk up to ANY of that year Trans am or Camaro and get that set of seats. I was talking to my wife about going to pull-a-part and just walking around til we found a set of seats we would like to use in the Batmobile. ....She agreed and said it would be a great date for us. A date at the junkyard searching for used parts, how much better could it get

Hey Shaggy its weird howthings work out...Last night on my appointment my customer had a 95 Acura Integra. They look very similar but the headrest hole was smaller and no netting. Also the seat looked like it would barely fit a Japanese guy....Oh wait I am Japanese....I meant a small asian guy. I'm going to check out some Trans Am seats 82-92.....Thanks for the info....BWD

No, haven't started anything yet. Right now I'm just looking for ideas. I've got a 2000 Mustang that I think might work for a donor car, but I'm still deciding on what Batmobile I want to build. I love the '89 but it's more common. I'm thinking the Batman Forever or the Animated Series Batmobile would be cool. Any advice??

wow, totally highjacked, but if im not mistakened, a Mustang would not be a good doner car since they are like my Camaro, and dont have a full frame underneath them.
Go for the animated series Batmobile. that thing is wicked!

The best advice I can give is to study this site. Secondly, do not do business with MT & KG. Again if you study CLTC site, you will see everything you need to make a wise choice.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate that. I definitely won't do business with either of them, I'm really impressed with the information on this site. So other than a Corvette, any other ideas for a donor car?? I want to do something a little different than most people, but I'm not quite sure where to start. Thanks!!

Check out the batopel for sale maybe this is something you could start with. Save your pennies building a Batmobile is very costly, but is worth every penny!!!!!!
