yeah I was going to do the box for the Batmobile.
Just never got around to it. And by the way...not a "funny" since the body didn't detach, but it is/was a drag racer.... one of the Batmobiles was built to tour Race tracks across the US and race down the quarter mile (in the 60s).

Yes! I saw one of the exhibition Batmobiles at my local drag strip. I believe it was in the very early '70s. The one I saw was flocked. Called "Bat-Fuzz", electro static nylon fibers were sprayed over wet epoxy paint to yield a velvety fuzzy finish.

I built 2 plastic 1/16 Revell funny cars as a kid, the Hawaiian and The Snowman. I thought I would try making them in paper. Both are "small" bodied Chargers. The chassis is Koolwheelz and the body is by me. I didn't realize the poor quality of my build until I took pictures. I hope my build of Gene Snow's Snowman will be better.
Thanks for looking, Brent |

Nice! Photos always seem to highlight what we don't want to show (or may not have even noticed)

I think these have all turned out great. I need to build a few for my brother, a big drag racing fan. He still races a mostly stock 1974 Duster from time to time.

Doug - these are Brents repaints and mods of my Koolwheelz models.
He produces them for his own private use. I am not distributing these models. But I do have a few Drag Racers and more to come. Brent - have you seen the updated Batmobile? I redesigned the '66 earlier this year, I think it looks and builds a lot better! Please give it a try.

Yes, I have seen the new batmobile and it is on my long list to build.
A picture of my Gene Snow Charger waiting to be built is below. Brent |
