Hello All. Just want to show off my build of "Shiny K.I.T.T." This is a really nice model so cudos to ProjectKITT!

I don't have the most nimble fingers, so building an all black model is the ticket for me (i.e. use lots of black Sharpie to cover mistakes

. I'm thinking about building K.A.R.R. and then maybe trying a diorama of their first battle.

Then the F.L.A.G. semi...
Then Goliath...
Then Juggernaut...The list goes on.

Very nice. It gets addicting, doesn't it?

Looks great

I actually just prepped blueprints for the FLAG semi yesterday; I'll be working on that along with the convertible KITT + interior

bgt01: nice build :D

Dude! The semi news is awesome. Will it be in scale with K.I.T.T.?

**ProjectKITT** · #**166** 01-09-2013, 09:49 AM

Yes it will

That sounds like great news on the interior for KITT and the Semi and trailer. Looking forward to building those.

Not really paper-related, but this is pretty cool! It's KITT starring in a new commercial for GE:

Knight Rider and the Locomotive (GE TV Commercial) - YouTube

The commercial is for the GE ES44AC hybrid locomotive. The funny thing is I've been working on an almost complete model if it's predecessor, the AC4400CW, just over the last few days. Before that I hadn't touched it in months. Then this commercial comes on - I love it!

I take interest in a lot of vehicles, mostly cars and trucks but particularly hybrids and electrics, with locomotives from this line being the only trains. Really cool to see one in a commercial with my favorite car

Supposedly there is a longer version with KITT riding on the train, but I haven't been able to find it. Still a good video

There is another one where KITT gets a parking ticket :P

Picture time

I just finished a build of one of the new version Firebirds in red. The second photo is it along with an original version blue one. The new side mirrors look really nice. Also, I think I'll revise the wheel wells on these models at some point.
