I haven't found it, but am having a good laugh at some of the home-built Batmobile replicas I have found while looking. ;D

The fat guy riding in the "Spohn" is Jimmy Dimora, an Ohio politician who is in the midst of a federal federal investigation of corruption charges related to taking bribes.

So, I suppose this one resides somewhere in Ohio. I can't find anything else about the car. However, the dashboard seems to be that of a 1950's Corvette. Did Spohn built any Chevy-based cars? If so, I'd guess this one was later modified to resemble the Batmobile.

Thank you Otto...I'm pretty sure it is a real Spohn...who will be interested in making a replica of such an obscure (and quite unattractive) car? On the other hand who later converted it in a Buttmobile proved his good taste...

There's so many of these so-called 'Batmobiles' out there that I'm sure someone is going to produce a book on the subject......not my cup of tea but just an observation.

Looks like it's on a truck chassis. A converted pickup?
