Worst. Batmobile. Ever.
We’ve seen some poor excuses for movie car mock-ups before. A Ghostbuster’s Ecto-1 made from a Subaru Outback, KITT made out of a 1992 Firebird. But a ’94 Grand Am Batmobile? Yeeeeeeesh.
Gabe, the hero of our story, purchased this wrecked 1994 Pontiac Grand Am last summer from Dave’s Towing in Ann Arbor, Michigan for $100. The vehicle was running but sported a crushed roof, a damaged front end, and an otherwise crunch-and-munched body. Like any reasonable person, Gabe’s first thought was to “go all in” and convert the cursed car into a Batmobile.
After a few necessary repairs, work proceeded: Gabe sawed off the crushed roof and built a custom frame for the new roof and windows. Inspired by the Batmanesque charm of his creation, Gabe then rigged up and riveted on fins, reworked the nose, and spray-painted the car matte black. He capped it off with a Batman logo on the roof. The end result is something completely ghettorigged in appearance but also more attractive than a stock ’94 Grand Am. It’s also street legal.
