Default Bat Mobile > 05 GT

First off didn't really run 'em - just messed around a bit. For any of you living in the DFW area you know what radio personality is often seen in his Bat Mobile replica. Anyway I ran into "him" in Southlake on Christmas day heading W down 1709. At first I really thought we were going to have a go at it and I dropped into 2nd but he was just messing around. I wanted to stop and ask him what he had under the hood because that pimped out 77 Caddy must weigh 6000 lbs but had some real grunt. But, I figured I wouldn't bother the guy. He asked where the firestation was so I showed him. Again this was on Christmas day and the guy was heading to the fire house to spread some cheer in a style that was surely all his own. This guy does a lot for local PD and FD boys [sm=icon_rock.gif]

Anyway I found the spec's on that bad boy and now I know I would have been spanked.

I saw an original batmobile at a place near me... Corinthian Motors in maybe Mahwah, NJ? I cant remember the stats, but the motor was HUGE, and apparently the thing was a beast Never saw it run tho
