In the Mrch/April 2012 IPMS Journal, there is an article about building the 1940s Batmobile from the comic book using Lindberg's 1940 Ford Coupe.

I believe you can request a copy of the article or even get a copy of the Journal itself.

I belive Dinky Toys did a stamped steel version of the 1940s version. But its a "no frills" kinda deal .   Four wheels , black paint,  thats about it.,

 Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"

Polar lights did a 1950's one as a die cast kit , really beautiful. Horizon done it as a resin kit.

ISTR some diecasts of earlier ones, like a whole set from the '40s to 'modern', but they were small, like Matchbox or Hot Wheels.

I am looking for a pre-1960's Batmobile, preferably pre-1950's, in plastic kit, resin or die-cast in either 1/24 or 1/25 scale, did anyone ever make a kit of something from the pre-TV era? I have only seen the 1960's and later movie versions. thanks for any help.
