Happy new year folks! Well January is "the month". He's booked in at the end of the month for some remedial work ready for the MOT. One garage is doing it all for me so no messing around. At the moment the list of finicky bits that need doing is as follows :- (looks worse than it is ha ha) 1)...

Well my mate popped over from Blackpool and we managed to bleed all the braking system :) 3 jobs left for mot now. Handbrake. Horn. Fog lights. All of which are out of my experience range lol. I don't like wiring!

Lol it will deffo be ready by CSS (assuming thats still in August) as I intend to have it on the road by March :-D and I will be taking him to all the shows thats for sure and certain :D Got half of the money saved for the dashboard to be made so thats coming along nicely! My main issue is...

Not much to update sadly as weather is s**t an money is bad! But I now have my electronics back with overlays and my switchpods (go either side of gullwing) so it's getting there very slowly Now I just need the £800 plus fitting to get the dash made and assembled. And the few hundred quid to...

New fibreglass t top liner fitted and over head console test fitted. Just need buttons for it now

Oh it's deffo bonkers lmao! Thanks for the compliment :) it makes it all worthwhile when you see people's reactions

Depends how much it needs lol! 182 could be economically more viable lol

Yup it is indeed pennine manor sir! And Dave from TGS was the low loader who took it up! Daves gonna hopefully sort my handbrake and bits for the mot soon

It's KITT from Knight Rider. A Pontiac Trans-Am 5.0 V8 custom built to look like the tv car

He he I have a good life ;) thanks for the compliments!

Well kitt has some new bits picked up last weekend. New headlight clusters and new fibreglass t top liner. Also got the correct upper console and correct doorcards! Just need cleaning up and fitting now! Paid for these months ago but last weekend was the first chance I had to pick em up! In...

Tell me about it! Thats what General Motors consider as a reasonable replacement in the event of a puncture! Its smaller than the wheels on our lasses Ford Ka!

Had to take wheel off to put replacement bowling ball on today so popped the ridiculous spare on for a minute. It's hilarious. I'd be terrified drivin with it on!!!

Yeah the lookalike seats are okay until your parked next to another KITT and then its horribly obvious! Same with the wheels too! and yeah fingers crossed I wont be out of work long, although in this climate who knows :S

Just worked it out what i need money wise :( Owed to KIRAD for overlays/headlight bits/doorcards/switchpods - £325 PMD's - £480 Turbocasts - £360 Dash and Build - £800 Total - £1965 to practically finish the car Then or course mot tax and insurance FML!

Apologies for the bug gap in updates. Sadly for the last few weeks I've not been able to do much with the car due to losing my job and being very skint. However I do have some updates! I have managed to secure on a payment plan genuine correct pmd seats. There in great condition. Wrong colour...

Well yeah it's become an annual event. Used to be just a handful of cars in a car park in Halifax and its blossomed into europes largest knight festival. Should be around the same time again next year. Probably at castleford again :)

Yeah it was ace! And all the owners cars were protected this year to avoid prying hands lol. Only the sponsors and vendors cars could be walked up to and poked lol

Well Knightcon was amazing. VIP night on Friday got to meet Peter parros who played RC3, Rebecca Holden who played April and Michael Scheffe who designed KITT!! Here are a few pics. Was great to be able to meet those guys in the flesh and mingle with all the other owners and vendors and discuss...

Just to let you all know this Saturday at castleford xscape it's the Knightcon festival! 100s of tv and film cars on display including kitt, KARR, the batmobile, ecto 1 and many more! Sadly as mines not ready it's not going to be there but it's deffo worth a visit and it's totally free! Just...

Here's the listing grab a bargain. If they don't sell on eBay will sell here so just ask. http://bit.ly/Q3PVgT

Yeah he has, went and had a nosey at it couple of months back.... Stunning! Immaculate inside n out. All reupholstered and looking like new!!!

Can't wait to finally get it ;)

The originals were awful in some shots! Micro marred and covered in swirls lol! Shall have to drop him a line!

Yeah ideally he needs lookin at by a detailer now to get him like glass :)

Lol I'm sure that can be arranged :)

Borrowed this pic from the guys who are gonna be making my dash. When mines done it should look pretty much identical to this! My actual electronics have come from a different supplier but the shell and overlays are all from KIRAD so will look virtually identical!

Will be sooooo much better once he has the dash in :)

Damn that was the pose I was mimicking but couldn't remember how he was sat! Will have to retry with leather jacket and hideous belt ha ha!!

Thank you :)
