Batman (Adam West) does anyone know what that original car was taken from or bas!
Question: The most famous batmobile began life as a Ford concept car called the Lincoln Futura, built over a decade earlier in 1955. The body of the Futura was fabricated by Ghia of Italy, whose artisans hammered the car's panels over logs and tree stumps carved as forms to create the sleek manta ray-like car. In 1959, the Futura was featured sporting a fresh red paint job in the film It Started With a Kiss, starring Debbie Reynolds and Glenn Ford. In 1965, ABC-TV chose famed Hollywood customizer George Barris to design a "Batmobile" for their soon-to-go-into production BATMAN show.

The original Adam West Batmobile was based on a concept car, a Ford Futura.
Rather disappointingly, it was something of a piece of junk in real life, though they did make some later versions, one of which was for drag racing.
