NEEDS A WING.....! something like the spoiler on a 82-86

the grill on the car at first glance call to mind another car- the GAreen Hornets Black Beauty...( a chrysler 300-limo edition -& a movie of that is in the works also with a modern chrylser 300 being reworked to fit the role- take note KR movie prod crew! )

A quick photoshop job by myself, its a modded 2001 Trams-am Firebird, I chose it because it has a very nostalgic shape.

I have seen this model car made into KITT with photoshop before, but this one I like (maybe because it isn't just a straight frontal shot).

Can you try and fix the mirror image of the wheels ?

As I've said before, this is a very old Internet Photoshop, and it looks cool, but I think just a tad too aggressive to be K.I.T.T. He should be tough, yet sleek; I think the non Ram Air version works a bit better that's in another thread.

Aha, I didnt know this model had come up before, i guess as far as agressive goes, the air intakes do have a bit of angry nose flair about them. But it's not really an "old" photoshop, as i made myself today, staggering 20 mins of effort lol.

And in reguards to the wheel reflections, i could probably do that, i'll get onto that tommrow. Like I said, 20 mins job, I kinda overlooked the reflections by accedent. If I could find high quality picture of KITT (for the wheels and lightbar)at about the same angle as the Firebird, I could probably make a larger version, as the original Firebird image is about twise the size, although it might not look quite so good in large scale ^^;

Your Photoshop might have been made today, but someone else made a K.I.T.T. one out of this picture at least 5 years ago.

Oh man, that has high quality wheels, I searched high and low to no avail on that, hence mines pretty small in comparison :?

I want what you have been smoking; you really must be high to think anything other a Pontiac Trans Am as KITT will work. A Datsun Bogus. Any Japanese car is an insult to knight rider. (I wonder why they did not go with their original choice of a Datsun and went with their second choice a Pontiac Trans Am). It must be a Pontiac Trans Am the 2008 looks nice

UGGGGG-LLLLLYYYYYY- ( the vette ) I love the photoshop of the T/A .....Swwwweeeeeeet, tho low gloss on the wheels would be better.

If the powers that be go with New prototype from Gm as the past history shows ( immediate post KR- sales went stratospheric ) then the Rageous is on the right path-er -road-uhh-track....! cuz after all, one thing reads true....time never lies....

back then...sales of the T/A went way up &beyond what was projected for auto sales....the T/A-F body & 82 TO 87 Camaro SOLD LIKE CRAZY...& the 82-87 T/As here around New England are being saved & restored like vintage Muscle cars of the mid60s-early 70s

THO IROCS were found wrapped around trees,etc- bad drivers
