knight rider online

Hi all,

First annoying question from the latest newbie, here....
Afore you say, I have used the Search function and gone through over 500 postings looking for an answer

I know what the Juggernaught was in the 2-part episode, ie a big truck with a battering ram that turned KITT into a mess, but... What vehicle did it use to be?

I know too, from reading Search, that it was previously used in the movie Spacehunter.
Does anyone know what vehicle this thing started life out as?


Cheers,
Woody.

I couldn't find any specific info as to what kind of vehicle it's built on, but judging from the picture here is looks like it's built on the chassis of a 4x4 pickup truck. It looks similar to the chassis from the Fall Guy's truck.

I've tried to figure that our myself. I always thought it was a futuristic tank/battering ram vehicle.

A lot of people look at Spacehunter and think it's something WWII, like a Dodge Powerwaggon or maybe a Volvo Sugga.

I'm not convinced, though. A 4x4 pickup seems like the best fit, given this is a 1982 film.
Someone else has said it's definitely a 4WD due to the front diff.

Latest suggestion is a Toyota Land Cruiser.

Any thoughts?
