Knight Rider - KITT at the Olympics

Post by transam82 » Sun Jan 11, 2009 4:36 pm

Hi everyone this is transam82, just wanted to say hi, I went today to the Olympic Training Center located in Chula Vista, California which is just south of San Diego, I took a picture of my KITT Replica parked in front, which is currently "In progress" built on top of a oiginal 1982 Pontiac Trans Am - 5.0 Crossfire Injection engine. Car run's like a top, future plans is to paint the car black, I do have the correct rims and I have the bowling ball caps. :kitt2: Image

Why is Kitt Red?
It reminds me of what he said in "Knight Sting." "I'm the Knight Industries Two Thousand, not a Tomatoe on wheels" :lol:

KITT is not only red, he's has a white hood, black nose and a blue wing. Lots of luck, hopefully soon he will sport his traditional black paint job. :kittside:

P.S. If you think about it he is sporting the colors of the Olympics :lol:

Original hood had a bang one side from previous owner forcing the hood open (Important third gen owners, make sure to keep your hood hinges lubricated) also hood had a couple dents in it, I ended up replacing the hood with a used mint hood off a white 1983 Pontiac Trans Am, it was easier and cheaper then having a body shop work on the old hood. :wink:
