Y'all know it's coming: Baff! Biff! Slam! Bash! Boom!
Duddah-Duddah-Duddah Batman!
George Barris, the King of California
Customized Automobiles, most notably the original Batmobile, which Barris let
go for a cool $4.62m at Barrett Jackson in 2013 has died at the age of 89.
As Barrises hand crafted works of metal are
quite diverse. From the 1960's Batmobile to the Dragula & "Coffinmobile
Coach" for The Munsters, Beverly Hillbillies Jalopy to Kitt of Knightrider
fame and the Dukes 'O Hazzard and everywhere in-between. While Barris also
crafted cars for the Starz', like Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Liberace, Elvis and Sir Elton John just to
name a few...
