Posted by Jeff on 7/22/2004, 9:25 pm Anyway, I haven't heard from Nate in a while, so if he's still reading this site, thanks, I should have said that a long time ago. I wish I had saved or written down his stories about the prop guys from the 66 show he talked with, and the info on Barris Butts Currie and Towle. I didn't realize what I was getting just for asking! Stuff he had worked a long time to dig up and find!
69.170.45.27
Just wanted to publicily say "Thank you" to a board member that has helped me and apparently lots of other owner/builders. I want a batmobile (don't we all?) and found this site two or three years ago. Don't post much at all, but I have learned a ton! Back then, the only guy to post his address and real name and who had a car was Nate. I emailed him and asked a few questions. He has been a source of info, tons of photos, everything I asked he gave me and then some. He has told me how he built his props, sent tons of free stuff. He never asked for any money - he even dubbed rare futura footage for me. I have seen him not say an unkind word when he got cought in the cross fire on his car from Mark and Kory when they said his Curry body wasn't as well built. Two guys who he gave thousands of dollars to each finding fault with the other guys work!(Hey, he has the only Curry/Towle car in the world!!)
Between him and G-dog's #5 find, amazing stuff has surfaced.
Anyway, just wanting to give him his "props" and hope he sees this!
To the man, "Natman"! My photo files and bat files thank you!~
Jeff
P.S. Nate, if you see this, check your in box! Thanks!
