Default LQ4 powered Batmobile

I just repainted my truck for a bit more hero flair, albiet subletly.

Just wanted to share and y4es I need better photos, Did the paint job myself in the garage.

This is the only outside shot I have


Hood with poor lighting, from the street you can't see the Bat as seen in the prior pic.




Prior to putting the hood on. You can barely see the lq4



Anyway, just wanted to share.

yup the chassis is a 1990 K2500. Aftermarket hummer body, seats and so forth laid on in 2002 anf then in 2007/8 I put the LQ4 and associated drive train in.

lol. in truth little outside of steering, brakes, axles, gas tank, heater, radiator, and frame are 1990 anymore! since the frame is still 1990 that is what it is licensed as so lets hope I don't wreck this thing!

I agree, it's amazing what you can do to give new life for otherwise stock vehicles.

Looks great and I would have never known unless you told me.
