Knight Rider Kitt replica was on Fox 8 News

[@leslieau7245]

This man is the real legend to knight rider. He is the only man in this world who built an exact replica of the real deal compare to all the other knight rider jokers wanna be who build their kitt to their custom specs. Chris blasius derserves the recognition in the knight rider world. You have my highest respect! I can’t stress enough how incredible you have done to your car. Wilton knight would be so proud of you.

[@ChrisBlasius]

Thanks sooooo much Lesie!!

[@stark1193]

Thanks to my dad, in 2016 when I was 7, he showed me Knight Rider, Herbie the Love Bug, The Dukes of Hazzard, all of the 80s. I am 10 and still in love with K.I.T.T. Love your replica Chris!

[@TheRealCobraBurnout]

Fantastic Job. Cant tell you enough how epic your KITT build is!

[@ChrisBlasius]

+TheRealCobraBurnout appreciate it man!!

[@Mak.kay.la10]

I'm a 2000s baby and I love this show! In my opinion it's the WORLD'S greatest show!!!

[@Chris-tx9ou]

Fantastic and well done to you Chris. What an Awesome achievement. Bring on the Hoff :)

[@ChrisBlasius]

+Chris yes!!! Let’s do it!!!

[@carfanfan]

Well done Chris. KITT looks gorgeous. What a beaut!

[@ChrisBlasius]

Thank you very much!

[@slimanlakehal5524]

Well done. First perfect replica I ever seen!!! First time I see the correct scanner effect and the red is so spot on!!! Usually they are orange ,pinkish or almost white because too bright. The trailling effect was perfect too!!! Amazing job your are a true fan and talented. Thank you for delighting my eyes with your masterpiece !!!

[@ChrisBlasius]

Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching Sliman. Glad you noticed the details that so many don't :)

[@matthewhegarty729]

That is great! It took me three weeks to find the time to swap out the upper door panel rails so a full restoration like that would take me about 25 years.

[@poolboyinla]

It's a beautiful car.

[@eevialasalmi5834]

[@yankeestone8161]

Of all the replicas in the world (and that includes the Mona Lisa) your car is second to none. Remarkable job Chris!!! 👍👍👍💯

[@ianmarkey9434]

I'm fortunate i was born in 78 so when the show first aired i was old enough to enjoy it the first time around lol.

[@mowcee1]

A real beauty for sure. K.I.T.T. always gets the love, who out there remembers K.A.R.R.? He was my favorite haha

[@ChrisBlasius]

Absolutely!! The best episode ever! I was just in La at the final battle scene! Took me right back!

[@MatSpeedle]

Me alegro que haya gente que se acuerde de KITT. Me encantaria poder tener uno hehe

[@ristube3319]

My name is Chris and saw the show when it was new. I was 4-8 when it started and ended. This car WAS my childhood! It never left me either, I’d watch the re runs and tape them off the tv to watch again EVERY SINGLE DAY! Not even slightly exaggerating. I did the same with the knight rider movie “Knight Rider 2000” I was hoping they’d use the same format for the 2008 relaunch. That show was such a let down, awful dialogue, awful acting, unbelievable equipment (turns into a F-150). The cast was beyond ridiculous, all these side stories for nothing. It felt like the studio approved it if you could take a typical show and add a talking car that was indestructible and for some reason couldn’t do easy things that it could in 1982. The relaunch first made me not want to watch when a cop was hiding on the side of the road running radar, kitt didn’t see him there, and said “He was well hidden” really? I have to say that was the first instance that I thought to myself this is awful, completely unbelievable, and will be short lived. I really can’t believe they did such an awful job, really killed the franchise. They needed to make it the American James Bond. I could’ve done much better if given the chance to.

[@davejohnson6202]

Good work as always glad its getting noticed now all ya hard work paying off shows hard work and elbow greese does make a diffrence hope the hoffs noticed

WOW! Knight Rider has ruled the world since the 80's franchise begun with Universal Television since 1982 36 years ago and Knight Rider will soon embark at 40 by 2022. Someday, The Motion Picture version of the all-time 80's TV Show will soon grow over millions in the box office.

[@mr.lonniebooker3205]

Furthermore, Knight Rider will soon become as the next motion picture for the big screen since the Star Trek TV Show Franchise going from the TV Series becoming as the Star Wars themed version for the screen known as The Motion Picture was originally launched in 1979. Knight Rider will soon go Motion Picture bound with Universal Studios on it's upcoming revival soon.

Thanks for the idea... I just contacted him lol, I'll let you know how it goes

[@FabledGentleman]

Awesome, i hope Sandberg sees this and shares it with the Hoff. It was announced just 2 days ago that The Hoff will star in the movie as an actor. And the story is going to be in the year 1985. So it's perfect. And seriously, i can totally see this happening, lol.. It's just a matter of luck, if i had been The Hoff and had seen this car, i would have personally made sure i'd meet you and see this car with my own eyes. :D

[@bobbysworldrox]

I don't get why he's getting so much fame. There has been many Kitt replicas built as good or even better. There's a big Kitt convention in Las Vegas every year with Kitts from all over the country show up. Even Karr shows up

[@ChrisBlasius]

Well there hasn’t been anyone yet that took it as far as I did I guess. I mean, I get ripped apart by other knight Rider builders all the time that I was crazy to spend the money I did on Goodyear Eagle gts tires, the say Bridgestone are close enough... well if you are striving for screen accuracy, close enough isn’t good enough. From every replica I’ve ever scene, they went “ oh that’s close enough” close enough wasn’t good enough for me. I mean I built the whole car from 82 nos parts, the whole car is brand new. Pretty sure that hasn’t been done before. Anywho, thanks for watching

[@bobbysworldrox]

Knight Rider look up knights of the west coast I can assure you there has been. There is guys from there that spent over 100k. Not knocking on your replica just a but surprised it's gotten so much attention.

[@ChrisBlasius]

I’d Iove to know who you’re talking about cause I’m good friends with all those guys and none of them are close to 100k

[@bobbysworldrox]

Knight Rider if your good friends with them as you as then you should know who the biggest spenders in the group are. An yes a few of them are very much in the 6 figure range.

Nope you are completely wrong ... I was just with All of them in February. Someone fed you some lies
