For one point, riddle me this: Identify the car, its purpose, and the un-caped crusader sitting on it. Holy red herring! He's already given a clue!

Only a complete and specific answer will earn a point!

"I've met Chuck Jordan several times over my career writing Corvette histories. This photo seems so implausible: dapper, disciplined Chuck sitting on a cartoon. Series creator Bob Kane and executive producer William Dozier asked GM Design's help in creating a suitable escape car for their lead character, Batman. The TV show ran from 1966 through 1968 and starred Adam West."

Quote from Christopher R. Phillip

The car was based on a 66 Corvette with a 427" big block.  I'd love to get my hands on one of those motors!
