| Thanks for the add't photos. To bad this prop did not receive any care. I collect movie/ TV props and costumes and feel bad for this one. I would buy it in a heartbeat just to save it!! So if anyone has a contact, let me know!!!!!!

You could track down Charlie Moore in Tennessee - he owns the museums, although he just sold Guinness Records to Ripley's (they are buying up everything, but word is, they are keeping the museum open). The cockpit is in the Star Cars museum, but I doubt he would part with it. Never hurts to ask...

| Thanks Justin, I wonder if WB has any say so on the ownership of the cockpit?

| When I saw it a couple months ago it no longer had the large red emblem on the steering wheel or the rope lighting although the seat is trashed. I remember when this was sold, it was sold at a Butterfield's auction back in the '90s. The auction had this and the MTV Batmobile as well. I can probably dig up the old auction catalog and scan the photos in and the text for the cars. They had all the contract warnings in the auction book as well. Prop collecting is fun, I have a couple Batman items, but not nearly as much as Back to the Future. I have one Batman Returns stuntman emblem that I got from the Superman Museum back in 95 I believe it was.

| The one cool thing I forgot to mention is with this studio process interior, they have a tv screen playing the scenes from the movie that were filmed with this exact interior. I always get a kick comparing what is on screen to something that is used on film... with cars changing hands and props odds and ends missing or getting damaged over the years, it sometimes is hard to match stuff up on screen.
