Well thanks to my horrendous workload in March there isn't much to report at the moment. Got him through mot for another year thank god, got a replacement engine sat in the garage I haven't had time to touch yet lol and got a nice performance exhaust system winging its way to me as well. Now...
Not a lot of updates guys sorry. My beautiful screen accurate switch pod buttons have arrived and are awaiting fitting to my new switch pod arms and shortly my lower console will arrive too. Coming into winter I'm getting fewer opportunities to drive kitt sadly!
Rebecca is lovely she really is she spent all day Saturday with the kitt owners at the show signing autographs and taking pictures and then came for dinner with us all on Saturday night and spent the day with us again on Sunday! Very surreal chilling out in the sun drinking beer with someone I...
And this is a video of my good friend Lion driving both my kitt and my friend Sy's. Mine is the second KITT in the video. And the woman in the passenger seat...... yes its the one and only Rebecca Holden that played April on the show!!!!

Well had a fantastic time at Knightcon. Freshly polished kitt got lots and lots of attention! Here are a couple of videos!
First one was an impromptu bit of KITT vs KARR action in the pub car park next to the hotel! Mine is the KITT on the right ha ha

For anyone that might be interested, Knightcon Star Cars and Heroes is on on Saturday at Doncaster Racecourse. I will be going with KITT along with many more, there will also be loads of other tv and movie cars, cosplayers, and stars from tv and film! Visit www.knightconuk.co.uk for more info...
Ended up having to do the wet sanding and polishing myself...... more or less happy with the results lil more pics to follow

Well kitt is now running again. My mate came up and spent 2 whole days on him. New hood is painted and on now as well so he is looking a lot better now. My other friends coming to cut and polish the paint on Thursday so by the weekend he should be like a shiny penny ha ha.
Hopefully I've now found a new mechanic. He's worked extensively on the chevy 305 small block so is confident he can get mine running well again. He's very busy though so is going to ring me when he can fit me in. As long as the car is ready and back on the road for knightcon in September that's...
Well since KITT is off the road I aquire myself a little cheap drift toy. Now I work for Mazda makes sense to have one since I can get parts cheap! Got a company demonstrator too but can't do anything to that ha ha so thought I'd have an mx5 since kitt will be off road for repairs till at least...
Well did a job for a mate last week and the engine misfired so badly he ended up coming home on a Lowloader. Not sure what is wrong with it but he is now dead in the garage awaiting specialist attention :(
Well hopefully my mate is going to come up next weekend and fix him. Got to order 200 quids worth of parts and pat his fuel up here, but what this guy doesn't know about trans ams isn't worth knowing!
Very probably was my mate yea. Sadly at the moment mines decided to shake like a dog on idle and stall all the time so he is awaiting my version of bonnie to come and take a look. :(
