TKR Replicas

Post by knightad » Sat Jan 01, 2005 11:19 am

Hello, and Happy New Year to you all! I just wondered if anyone had seen, or built, any replicas of the cars or bikes from Team Knight Rider? Pictures would be cool!

Ask again when I make more than 20K a year and have the opportunity to do Beast.

I've only done car models. Too expensive to do the 1/1 scale thing.

being from the UK i dont know what the original cars looked like but from our point of view it looked like the TKR cars weren't customised, simply painted with a big awful white stripe in domino's case!! yeh the bikes were (at the least the god-awful looking ones at the start of the season) but the car's just looked like normal cars.

Beast and Dante had some pretty heavy aftermarket parts added on, such as grille guards, taillight guards, Beast had a bedcover and a rollbar and aftermarket rims.

Dante had...something...added to his roof. It looks like a luggage rack or something that was covered over by a metal piece. Dante's back windows were also covered. Maybe tinted silver two-way, so Kyle could still see out.

I think Domino had a few things added on, but, seeing as how I'm not as into cars as I am trucks, I couldn't point out the specifics to you, though someone else might be able to.

One of the alterations to Domino was painted on headlight covers

acually those are stick on covers they come in black or clear with the holes punched out you can spray them the same color as your car

Oh, I'm sorry. I remember someone telling me that they were painted on from my model car topic.
