Original 1966 Batmobile On Sale At Barrett-Jackson Auction This Weekend
Fellow Car Nuts:
Holy Shit Batman! The Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale is this weekend thru Sunday on the Speed channel. For the first time ever the original 1966 Batmobile will be auctioned off on Saturday night. This is the original prototype out of George Barris' personal collection used in the Batman TV Series. Lots of other sweet machinery too. I saw an Olds 442 that was sold for only 29K tonight. My parents had a convertible 442 when I was growing up. Check it out. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/ http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/30/g...rrett-jackson/ Last edited by houstonwhodat; 01-17-2013 at 11:55 PM.. |

I had never seen or heard of Barrett-Jackson before this year.....but I have loved watching this over the past few days. There are some pretty nice cars being sold..
I was chuckling about the old Kansas Highway Patrol car they sold. |

Are you serious? They have auctions all over the country but their Scottsdale in January is the biggest. They always have some cool '70 Cuda's and other muscle cars. I'd like to hear from someone that's actually been there. |

this was during the eighties. she used to work in the film industry and it was inside an industry storage place in burbank while they were retrieving a bunch of props for some film and the guy let her drive it outside to get it out the way. I just happened to be there and shot some pics. case of a hot woman getting her way

The one they're selling is the original prototype that George Barris still owns. I expect him to be on stage with it when it gets sold. |

I'd much rather have the one from the Burton Batman movie. That's the best one of the bunch, IMO. I despised the TV show. |

gonna have to disagree with you there fraz
I love the 66 and then the tumbler been to BJ many times and there is no place to go for BJ like scottsdale and yes for under 20 you can get some american muscle cars 60's the buicks instead of chevies, lincolns instead of ford. and so on and so forth
