sly,
"They say it is the bat logo. but I just don't see it."

Maybe this front view is how they mean to see the bat logo.
Looks like the bat logo to me. vertigo

DOJ/Justice League Batmobile Bat Logo hidden in air intake vents.
Can be seen from front viewing of air intake vent.

I just recently fabricated the air intake vent for my Justice League batmobile.
I never realized the bat logo was built into the air intake vents until sly told me it was there.

Still can't believe I missed seeing the bat logo.
It is one of those kind of things that most will never see unless you know it is there.
Attached a photo-image that reveals the bat logo is really there.

Put two more hours on Justice League batmobile. 40-hours so far on air intake /hood / top of dash board.

Placed air intake assembly temporarily in place on wood supports.

Spent several hours doing layout and measurement study.

Next I plan to work for a while on the top of the dash board assembly.

Looks like you're having fun.

Normally I would say that that part should angle down more, but I guess you are keeping it high to fit the motor up front. Eventually you will have to angle down though and it would seem to me that would make for a pretty steep angle.

"Normally I would say that that part should angle down more, but I guess you are keeping it high to fit the motor up front. Eventually you will have to angle down though and it would seem to me that would make for a pretty steep angle."

At this time the intake assembly is 1-2 inches too high.
Final downward angle towards front from air intakes should match that of the model in the attached photo-images.

Engine compartment height from floor of tunnel to bottom of hood for 16" from firewall 32 inches.

Engine compartment height from floor of tunnel to bottom of air intakes is 28 inches.

In current configuration, the ground clearance from the bottom of the core tunnel to ground is 10 inches.

Ah, I see. Yes, there is quite a difference there from the DOJ version.

Received an email today asking,
"What is the best jigsaw blade for cutting curves in 12 gage to 1/8th" steel plates?"
A very fitting request since my Justice League body panels are being fabricated in 12 gage steel.

For cutting curves in 12 gage to 1/8th" steel plates the BOSCH T121BF3 has no equal.
It cuts 2X faster than it's nearest competitor and lasts 4X longer than any bi-metal blade.

The best blade for clean cutting plexiglass I have found is the BOSCH T102BF.

These top of the premium blades from BOSCH are not cheap.

Both of these blades cost with sales tax around 10.oo for a pack of three.
I buy mine at HOME Depot but they are available anywhere quality tools are sold.

I attached photo-images of the blades in their packaging and a BOSCH blade chart.
