Knight Rider was one of my favorite shows from my youth. As a kid born in '75, this hits all the nostalgia buttons. As many of us in the '80s, I made much of our cosplay items from markers, cardboard and masking tape. I recall creating a static scanner bar from crayola markers and cardboard and fastening it to my Huffy bike so that K.I.T.T. and I could ride around the neighborhood. I could be like Michael Knight, "a young loner on a crusade, to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless." I had the good fortune to to have my Dad take me to see one of the K.I.T.T.'s at the Fresno Fairgrounds at a show called Autorama sometime in the '80s. Somewhere, lost to the sands of time (and probably a refuse heap at this point) is an overpriced picture of me sitting in the drivers seat of K.I.T.T. Young me was just over the moon to be able to do that! Thank you AJ (and Joe) for all you have done to keep this awesome show and history of its vehicles alive, and thank you to Parifractic for your love of the show like so many of us from that time period. Blessings!

I'm from Brazil, and just like you, my childhood was very rich on television. Here passed true masterpieces of both cartoons and TV series, such as "Batman" of 1966, with Adam West and company, "Lost in the space", "Bewitched", "Land of the Giants", "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea", and the classic cartoons of Hanna-Barbera such as "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! Sorry for the long text... but I was also moved, not only by your testimony but also by seeing K.I.T.T. again. God bless you, bro.

I had a Camaro of that same year that I used to deliver thousands of pizzas in the mid 90s. I'm so impressed with the preservation of your KITT, as I remember the entire family of those cars being VERY fragile, for lack of a better word. The shift lever was mentioned in the video, and I doubt the original survived. I used to carry superglue with me because the button would spring off at random times, and I just had to keep it together. Those interior door handles were a big problem too. They were made of some sort of random GM "Metal" that looked like a mix of dull glitter and sand when it would break. Really neat to see it in the shape I always imagined it, and not the state I experienced.
@JohnDlugosz Жыл бұрын
I think the Firebirds were better built than the Camaros. I have a '99 Trans Am, and the shift lever is still original. The leather has shrunk off around it, but the button works just fine. What I've had to keep replacing is the hatch for the center console. I lean on it with my elbow when I get in, and its plastic and foam construction suffers from that. I've had no trouble with the inside door levers, either.

A few years ago I bought a late 80s Chevy Camaro IROC-Z. The car was in great condition, but the headliner needed repairing. When GM built these cars their headliners were made by glueing the sponged fabric to a pressed paper cardboard. Leaking T-tops over time, made them vulnerable swelling. I found someone online who was selling a molded fiberglass piece where the headliner fabric was supposed to be applied. When I went to pick up the product. The seller turned out to be the guy who fabricated the interior parts for the Trans Am on Kningh Rider. He had several pictures and older parts in his garage that convinced me that he was authentic.

I recall sitting in one of these in Universal studios in the 90’s; it was like a dream and nobody in school believed me

I would like to thank the KZbin algorithm for pointing me to this video. In South Africa in the early 80's me and my family would spend every Friday evening watching Knight Rider, till it got moved to Mondays. This series had a major influence on my field of interest. I am also happy to say that one of the other KITT's made it to South Africa where it is enjoyes a career as an atracktion at Car shows and conventiontions. And yes, I have photos of me with KITT, naturally.

I love it! And I love how y’all did the montage of the show’s title sequence of all 4 seasons of Knight Rider, and extra bonus points for using the music of Knight Rider 2000. This is one of my favorite shows and I always wanted my own K.I.T.T. I have the chance to see a couple of the @KnightRiderHistorians videos here on KZbin and I actually tear up a little. Thank you for living my dream, and hopefully you guys and KRH team up for another video

Very nice, it recall all kind of memories about my childhood, where Knight Rider (together with Airwolf - remember those - and The A-team) was the thing I didn't want to miss... I saw Michael and KITT as heroes and wanted to be like them (who wouldn't as 10-year old). I remember dreaming about driving KITT one day and be planet saving hero myself and it's good to know that some cars survived the time and can be visited. Thanks for taking care of such precious memories!
