Nah just removed and stored, all the weatherstripping and rubber seals were fubar'd so had to come off to get to the rust underneath lol. Need to order some more once he comes back from being sprayed!

5 mins after departing. Quick stop for a coke and some pork scratchings ha ha!

And KITT is all loaded up and ready to rock n roll to his respray!

Crack on sir it's free to view on Netflix! Hoping I can bring him to CSS!!

Plan is to have it fully functional by August for my birthday and he's already booked to appear at a wedding in October lol

There's so many scenes in Knight Rider where if you pause it you can see the poor car break! On one he smashes into the ground so hard his red scanner light flys off and shoots across the frame ha ha! So many shots of his nose cone snapping and the wheels buckling lol. There was a you tube vid...

Yeah it would in the long run but it wouldn't be MY KITT then. This one has had my blood sweat and tears put into it, and tbh the conversion community is so massive that I can get assistance with practically every aspect! Stu's car is what mine is aspiring to be eventually lol

That's my mate stu's car lol. It's epic. He's helpin me install my dash and electronics when the time comes!

Will look a million times better when hes painted! Still waiting on led brake light bulbs to arrive as when I get a smoked glass blackout on they will need to be super super bright! Ordered em weeks ago! Managed to get a second hand scanner today for a tenner, needs re wiring but that's no...

Right folks not updated in a while so here we go...... Cars all booked in for its respray on the 9th of April so the crappy black on white paintjob he came with will soon be a thing of the past! Here is the last pic taken of him before he goes off next week!!! Got a lot more bits and bats done...

Dash is still ongoing sadly :( all the damage reports been sent to TNT just got to wait and hope they take responsibility! Keep emailing people everyday for retrim quotes. Had some insane ones tbh!! One quoted £900 just for the rears!!! Value wise it's a bit of a grey area. The car was 2k. By...

Yeah mines gonna do the tone sequence on start up but other than that wanna keep beeping to a minimum lol gonna have a speaker on the nose though that makes the "whooo whooooo" scanner noise :-D

Respray is getting closer and closer now!!!! 3 weeks to go!!! So excited!! To keep myself pacified I have been trying to sort the interior plastics today but need to get more plastic paint lol! Also ordered a LCD screen for the in dash tvs which is gonna be linked up to a DVD player and a...

These are on eBay bit pricey though item number 130621445797

No the ones I've got are aftermarket :) not a perfect fit either! There's loads on eBay though! What size engine (engine code) is the camaro? Is it the 5.0 Chevy 305 engine?

Made progress today. Found a garage who know what they are doing with a trans am :) also ordered gaskets for the rockers! Got paint for the interior plastics and dye for the covers for rear seats :) tis all good.

Sorry for lack of updates. Keeping schtum till trading standards get back to me. Will update when all resolved.

Looks nice when he's clean ha ha :) can't wait for the respray to happen now! Spoken to the guys who make it and they say it's fixable :) hopefully will just get it replaced tbh! It's a weird material its like car filler but a lot smoother and stronger with a re enforced centre made of a resin...

Well all the rocker push rods have been replaced. Still needs some tweaking though as runs a bit lumpy tbh. New air filter arrived today so need to fit that at the weekend. More excitingly the dash/overhead console/switch pod mount and countdown lights arrived the other day. TNT however the...

And this is how the dash will look totally finished with the gullwing wheel :) cant wait

Yeah had each one hooked up to a battery today and all works spot on :D

Whoop! KITT's electrics arrived today! Managed to get these for an absolute steal!!! A 1/4 of their original price and they are barely used! Just need the metal overlays for them now! The dash shell should be here on Weds/Thurs so will get photos of them up asap! Electronics dont look very...

Ha ha deffo bigger than anticipated! But just keep thinking about th end result and it will be all worth it :) should have the dash shell this week and electrics by end of the month!! Whoop!

Thank you :-D ha ha :)

Made a bit of a boo boo today while servicing the rockers! Tightened em too tight and ended up bending the push rods! Oooops! Had to tow him back to the garage where he is now disabled ha ha! Trip to castleford tommorow I think!

Not an awful lot to report tbh lately :( not been able to get a lot done! Sourced a dash shell which should arrive shortly :) and hopefully some electronics for said dash too! Going to do a mini service an change the oil and fuel and air filters tommorow as engine is running a bit rough..... My...

Had a play with my new glue gun and re trimmed the speaker covers :) welding is now practically completed. Just some finicky bits to resolve then the outer body will get sorted by the bodyshop. Some issues have arisen with the electrics due to shocking wiring by the plebeian clown who owned it...

I'm sure that can be arranged :) cracked on with the welding today :) its getting there slowly but surely!

Easier yes but nowhere near as rewarding
