This is Barris' 1966 BATMOBILE from the feature film and is insured for a cool Million. This one doesn't do car shows.

We had a ball checking out Geroge Barris' Kustom car shop! I took over 100 pictures that I will post soon!

One of my cool SHAG purchases from DISNEYLAND. I customized it myself :)

BOB'S BIG BOY

We said Hello! to BOB'S BIG BOY and got to spend quality time with our good friends Patrick and Leslie Owsley! Many more pictures to come!

I was able to see the EL CAPITAN in-person! Looking forward to this weekend!

I just got back from a wonderful trip to California and took so many pictures, I didn't know what to post first. I decided to post some pictures that my friend Gerry Maravilla took. The reason I made the trip was to do interviews for some Holiday documentaries that will appear on THE HISTORY CHANNEL this Holiday season! I want to THANK everyone at WORKAHOLIC PRODUCTIONS, especially Melissa Rafford! An enchanting experience from the world of RANKIN/BASS! I think the title of the special will be HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS: The History of Thanksgiving and Christmas Unwrapped and there is also HAUNTED HISTORY OF HALLOWEEN.
