yes, drivable. street legal, who knows but I'm sure in broad daylight I would get pulled over real soon.
everything has to be scratch built, I could find almost nothing that is an exact part on this car. tough. lotsa work.

Did you have to learn how to build engines for this? or did you already know? And is this engine the same as the movie version of the vehicle?

no, you never build the engine per se', you buy either a new, or used/rebuilt engine, or an aftermarket one like an Edelbrock. You then drop it in the chassis, add the drive shaft, linkage, etc.. hookup the brakes. etc..

Did you know how to install an engine before you did the batmobile? How did you do the research to find out the exact engine they used; etc. Do you have reference shots of the inner engine and just try and figure it out?
Also, are you guys definitely going to do the 1:1 predator 2? And will you do a thread for progress?

You should just casually drive it down to the shops when you get your food shopping.
Awesome stuff.
