how long has it taken you to get this far on the build


I finally had the body shell and the stretched frame in one location to start the build in August of 2011. Goal is to have the car ready this August for a total of a 4 year build on weekends

Things are really starting to come together on the BatBerry. I'm excited to be actually performing some "finishing" work

It was another hot day of hard work on the BatBerry today. Bit by bit it's getting closer to being done

It was another great weekend. This morning I fixed a couple bugs in Brainiac, and this afternoon I finished off the work on the BatBerry sound proofing and brake lines.

This past weekend's work was focused on the interior trim panels. These are the pieces that will eventually be covered either in carpet or vinyl to create a nice finished interior.

Getting much closer to finishing up the fabrication of the interior cabin trim pieces and cover panels.

I have a few more pieces to go and then we'll be starting to cover things with carpet and vinyl

Thanks!! I might need a long nap once I'm done

It's been a busy weekend which resulted in the completion of the interior cabin fabrication. It's almost time to cover the pieces with fabric.

But first I want to create the carpeting for the floor just to double check that everything will still fit with the carpet installed

It was a Fathers Day weekend filled with lots of templating and carpeting work for the BatBerry.

We also test fit the new 30 cal machine gun doors
