Batmobile Lost a Wheel and Joker Got Away!

Posted on 24 April 2007 by


Mike Cane, my favorite curmudgeon, recently went to Staten Island and took over 200 pictures of the original Batmobile. But the capper is that he not only got an autograph from the Batmobile’s creator George Barris, he also got to sit in it! How cool is that?! I’m green with envy, after all – this is the Batmobile we are talking about here, people! :clap_tb:

He even got to sneak a touch…it’s not fair, I tell you!

Read all about Mike’s escapade here. Lucky dog! :thumbup_tb:

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford

    Yep very nice, but the Knight Industries Two Thousand (K.I.T.T.) knocked the original batmobile off the #1 spot on my list of favorite TV/movie vehicles.
