@StormsparkPegasus 5 месяцев назад

I loved that Robocop arcade game. I mastered that game when I was 16, basically 100% the bonus rounds and go through the entire game without being hit. That's one of the few arcade games you can beat, as in you get a credit roll and the game ends.

@Starbuckin 14 дней назад

This is easily my favorite screen used K.I.T.T. - my absolute favorite! Thanks for posting this, what a Jem!!! Thank God it survives! Maybe one day I'll go see it in person. This is the car I saw at Carl Casper's show in Louisville Kentucky in the early 90's! I saw a Red Trans Am there, probably around an '86 year car that had "Basically Red" on the windshield and from what I remember it had a K.I.T.T. front bumper. I used this idea and bought my '86 Red Trans Am shortly after and put "Red Rider" on the windshield and had a homemade scanner on the front and other mods inspired by Knight Rider. After Red Rider I bought a Red 1995 Pontiac Firebird and modified it into a Knight Industries inspired Knight 3000 and put Red Rider 2000 on the windshield and brought it to several "Knight Nationals" segments of the Trans Am Nationals in Ohio and met A.J. Palmgren, Kevin Gagnon and Chris Breilmyer (not sure spelling) of Knight registries and a lot of other awesome people. Sorry I can't remember you Joe maybe you came onto the scene later on.

A car I would like to find a bit more info about is a KITT that was at “The cars of the stars” museum in Keswick, England. I think it may have only been a tour car but it looked amazing all the same. Traveled from Scotland to visit the museum many times just to see KITT however on my last visit before the museum closed down they let me sit in him. My mind was blown and I will never forget it 😊. I believe this KITT may have been moved to the Dezier museum along with the screen used convertible car (which I also had the pleasure of sitting in). Always wondered about the history of this particular KITT however, if by any chance it or any of the parts fitted had been screen used or if it was purely a replica for exhibition…..P.S. Knight Rider is my favourite childhood TV show, Robocop my favourite movie! Beyond jealous you not only have all this awesome Knight Rider stuff but also a Robocop arcade cab!😂

@user-kr6tk9vg3o 5 месяцев назад

Hi I’ve sat in that car in 1991 and was told it was used in the pilot. It turns out it was a tour car. Whether the Nelson family knew that ,I don’t know but they were extremely kind to me and let me have photos taken inside (otherwise forbidden) as they knew I was a huge fan, something I will always treasure. This then led me to take my car test and buy my first car in 1992 a black 1982 Trans Am which I still own and is a part conversion (no dash or inside consoles but mostly everything else.👍😉

Joe when it comes to Knight Rider facts and info, Google and Wikipedia have nothing on you buddy. :) I was fortunate to sit in KITT twice at two different World of Wheels events, so it's possible that maybe I had the chance to sit in this car. Didn't realize all of the history behind it until now. I'll arrange a visit to see your car in California and while AJ is distracted you can paint over the white letters on KITT. Ha Ha! Thanks for another great video buddy. Be well my friend.

@markraimo1283 5 месяцев назад

I would love to see the Goodyear Eagle GT tires back on the car that's at the Petersen Museum also. It would look so much better with those tires on it. I get way AJ doesn't want to do it as it's part of the car's history as a tour car from Carl Casper. But it's just my opinion. I personally think the white letter tires throws off the look a little.

I remember as a young boy thinking the Pontiac (even stock) would be on par with Ferraris and Porsches haha. Little did I know back that it would be the most humble motor to ever be in a Firebird. Now I own many USA vehicles, amongst which a 67 Firebird 400. I really love how good this channel is, Knight Rider is just the 'vessel subject' to experience how amazing the community is and how well these videos are done.

@1AstralKing 5 месяцев назад

I’ve never understood the “contractual” destruction of the train wreck vehicles. I understand that GM and CA may not have wanted “wrecked” vehicles to find their way onto the road [didn’t Joe specify in the Final Verdict vid that the dozen cars they got were pretty much unscathed?] but the abuse the original car suffered was as bad if not worse than simply having been on a train that derailed. And it’s not like the studio was just going to sell them off to be everyday drivers. If they could have survived as genuine tour cars what harm would it have done? I don’t know, is there enough material to do a deep dive into the specifics of that law? lt specified that the cars couldn’t be “sold”, but why could they not have been donated for primary use as tour cars or displays?

@Charlesbjtown 10 дней назад

The reason is "liability"...... it's that simple. If it's crushed, there's NO WAY for it to make it to the road, and open them up for lawsuits.

We are extremely fortunate that Universal Studios had cars that were not part of the infamous train derailment. 5 confirmed surviving screen used cars are not something to be taken lightly. I'm pretty sure Dukes of Hazzard is not that lucky. There may be only 1 surviving screen used General Lee. The train derailment was a blessing and an unfortunate tragedy. The blessing was the studio got more than enough cars to use for production at pennies on the dollar. The tragedy is some of the cars ended up playing key roles in the series such as KARR and the Super Pursuit Mode KITT. It is a crime that we don't have a screen used SPM KITT or KARR from the KITT v KARR episode because they had to be destroyed when the series ended.

@JulieDeOutdoors 5 месяцев назад

From what I have read there are 17 screen used General Lees left. There are some that say they used over 250 Dodge Chargers during the shows run, so way more Chargers used than Firebirds/Trans Ams from Knight Rider.

They really should put the much-nicer original-style Sheffe nose on that. It looks like a replica with that one.

@@KnightRiderHistoriansOfficial I think it's kind of funny that nobody's had a Knight Rider 2000 kit yet that was a completely different kit that was also a completely different car it's kind of funny how you like the original Knight Rider but you don't even know there's a second series called Knight Rider 2000 very extremely limited edition that particular car and it was pink doesn't even look like that in 2000 completely different and there's Wings on the car that come out of the side of the Machine Car you know

Hello, can you please do the same with the "real" KITT car owned by the French TV Host Vincent Perrot? He claims to have an original screen used KITT. But is it true? This is the biggest mystery around Knight Rider. Thank you very much!

Thank you for your good report 😊 I have a question. In the original film scenes, the color of the seat covers is... (hmm... what's the best way to describe the color?) ... I think the best way to describe it is to say light yellow, also called Tan. If you compare this color with some surviving K.I.T.T.s of today, you will notice that the color of the seat cover is more intense or towards a stronger yellow. This color reminds me of the spice color of curry. Why did the color of the seat cover intensify so much? Is it the aging process or were new covers used?
