Re: Big Announcement for SOUTHERN KNIGHTS ATLANTA 2016!
this is big news! Southern Knights is already an awesome show, but this takes it to a whole other level. where else will you be able to see the biggest collection of original items from the show? Nowhere. Many of these things have not been on display for a very long time, if ever. If you ever needed...

Re: Don Peake returns to SOUTHERN KNIGHTS ATLANTA!
Okay, first off I have known Don Peake since 2001, and a nicer, more generous man I have rarely met. besides being a legitimate musical legend, having played on some of the greatest music ever set to Ampex Tape. Gotta be honest here I have NEVER had a problem getting hold of Don. You are aware he is...

Re: David Has Invited KITT Owners To His February 14th Concert
I feel compelled to step in and say something about this offer. David needs to come to us , we should not have to go to him in a place where he already knows he's going to be anyway. For me, personally in my opinion if David comes to Knight Rider Festival II , he will have a grander stage to perfor...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
No, the one sinking into the mud was the remote-controlled car that had a motor and was steerable. That one sold off in 2002 on eBay. Unless there are distinctive marks, there is no real way to tell which miniature was used where... there were a lot of them made and destroyed. In the case of my car,...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
That looks like it is a Sessums model, and I think I can see a little MK inside... which tells me that is NOT the one with the scanner. Jack told me the electronics basically filled the interior. But I'm not 100% sure I'm correct about that. I will do more research. According to a reliable source Pl...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
By the way, I would defer to Joe on matters of where the Flag semi miniature was used in Knight Rider. If he says the model was used in only those 2 episodes, he's probably correct. I can't recall any others

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
I agree with you now that the miniature I have is not the one that is on the table - now that you mentioned that he still had it soon before his death. Is it possible that there was a miniature used in the show with headlights and taillights? or is it more likely that someone unrelated to the show ...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
After speaking with my friend who knew Jack in his final year or so and had been planning some great things, and from my memories of talking with Jack, I can tell you that I am 99.9% certain that the model of Goliath no longer exists in that form. It was basically just a truck model... nothing too r...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
Yes, The KITT models made by Jack Sessums were based on that Camaro model. The bodies are all custom molded from a mold Jack made of a modified body. He re-sculpted the back end to look like a Firebird then made a complete new front clip. Take a look at the picture I posted of the hole in the rocker...

No.... it's a video I have that Jack sent me before he died. It shows filming of miniature shots from varous episodes including "Goliath Returns" and "Custom KITT". since the material is copyrighted, I am forbidden to publish any of it. It has been seen by a number of people who ...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
To answer a previous post, the miniatures were used all over the place in most of the episodes. when you saw the underside of KITT flying over the camera, that was a miniature (look for the 4 long tubes as the rear end of the carr passes the screen... that's on the underside of many of the Sessums's...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!
I remember during one of my conversations with Jack he mentioned this model, but he didn't know where it was or any details. He also could not recall what episodes it was used in. After all... it was one of so many jobs he did over the years. The picture of Jack holding a KITT and one sitting on the...

Re: 100% Original Screen Used KITT
Greeknights car is 100% authentic and came from the Volo museum north of Chicago, and I bet they're kicking themselves for auctioning it off with the new Knight Rider coming out. I have one of these too. It was the last one Jack Sessums let out of his workshop before he died, and I purchased it dire...
