| Yeah it took a good 4 days to sand and buff and polish the car out. Just got it done today. Yeah I've looked over at the Big Kahuna a couple of times. Everytime I might want to do something on the bike I figure out what could be done to get the 89 finished. There's always something. The 89 should be done in about a week. After its loaded on the trailer I'm going to take a week off and then I'll be back on the Big Kahuna. The guys do have tomorrow off so I'm going to focus on making a mold off the gas tank buck in between installing the screens on the 89. If the mold making turns out good I will make a "how to" video. Thanks for looking....BWD

| Unbelievable as it may seem I am still working on the Crimefighter redo. I have a great guy working on the car full-time with me. So over the past few weeks we have installed an air bag system to drop the car. We have the rear turbine working in a way that is street legal. Replaced the canopy windshield again it took a while but the result came out great. Got everything remounted on the body and buffing is all done. The new paint job is by far the best paint job I have ever had on any personal vehicle. Got a Sony stereo system for the car today with a power amp and massive speakers. My goal is to get all the electrical items finished before we mount the body. My goal is to get the car finished within the next two weeks and make a nice video to share. I have an offer to have the car in a photo shoot so I'm going take them up on that. Oh yeah had a great visit with Shaggy as he was driving truck back to Washington. He seemed very impressed with the progress. Thank you CLTC could not have done this without your support. Oh yeah the day before had Batman4reals (Terry) drop by. So Terry and his buddy Frank came by to check out the car. Thanks again guys.... BWD

| Don't know how to say this any other way but I have a ton of crap. Was thinking about it last night and have decided I'm going to start selling my extra stuff. Plan on using the money for some local military charities. Made a little video about Lot #1 stuff. If there's anything your interested in send me a PM or email Thanks for looking BWD

| Wow its been a while. I did finish the redo on the Crimefighter Extreme and it was pretty extreme. Interior and exterior done. Decided against building another 89 at this time. Here is a final pic of the CF. Thanks for looking.... Thanks to all the CLTC members that helped me to make this possible...BWD

| I actually got to see this build live! The hard work, the long nights, the dedication and half around California. I just to say it was an honor to see a full size batmobile and made friends along with it.

| Thanks Nitro I really appreciate the kind words. It was a labor of love. But honestly could not have nbeen done without your input and other members. In fact you were one of the first guys to share some info with me . It meant a lot to me to have that support. Yeah Batman4reals. Has always been a pleasure to have you on my side. We will be showing the cars again soon. Hope to be able to do some more with you and Frank. I'll text you a pic of the new projects. Thanks again dave aka BWD

What are you doing for the canopy? how are you opening it? I noticed in one of the videos you had nothing, just old hand power
