Default Re: SWEETEST HOT ROD EVER BUILT!

Also, as for details, it turns out Barris built two of these, one as the TV car and one as a back up and for display purposes. If you notice the handles on the coffin in the original photo early in this thread, then look at the handles in this photo. The original had functional handles, these are moulded to the body. Also, the original had chrome air scoops, these are painted. The back up car recently sold at an auction in Florida to the current owner for $46,000 and change. So what I want to know, where is the original? Barris still have it as he does the original Batmobile? Anyone have insight on this? I want the real deal.
Thanks,
