FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Batman has been cruising the streets of South Florida, but he's not looking for the Joker. He's trying to sell the Batmobile.
Terry Lobzun donned the cape and cowl to generate publicity for an auction of the 1966 TV series replica. He spent Thursday afternoon driving up and down A1A in Fort Lauderdale, The Miami Herald reported.
"The thing about the Batmobile is that it's a cultural icon," Lobzun said. "You just want to let people know about it."
This Batmobile will be offered up Saturday afternoon at the Florida Collector Car Auction at the Broward County Convention Center, where it's expected to sell for between $100,000 and $200,000. Other replicas in the past have sold in the $100,000 range.
The Batmobile being sold Saturday has gadgets like rocket tubes, parachutes and a Bat Ray Protector, but none of them work.
