Also, keep in mind that usually when a steering wheel of this type is installed and meant to be functional and used on a daily basis, that a "granny" gear box usually accompanies it. That way the turning radius of the wheel is reduced by around 1/3 compared to the actual turning of the car...

Hey, how about this...I would like to see Kitt and Airwolf be teamed up! Aka-put KITT AI into Airwolf for the aerial necessities. The foundation could really have expanded greatly from this type of formidable air defense weapon!! Just think of it...KITT has the ground and Airwolf has the skies! Ther...

Unlike a lot of people here, I unfortunately don't own any models of Kitt as of yet, but I am always on the prowl. However, I run into major problem when I do find one I like and want. Is there any way I can purchase one from ebay if I don't have a credit card? I feel completely cut off from owning ...

Yeah, I once met this guy in a small town I was living in here in central Kansas who was working on his General Lee and I asked to drool over it. Half way through the "drooling", I asked him out of curiosity what was under the car cover in the adjacent bay, and he said "Kitt". I ...

Well, I used to be able to watch robot chicken and the rest of my favorites on adult swim, but my fricken' tv left with its owner and now I'm stuck with one that isn't cable ready. This sucks! :cry: :( At least I finally got a PS2 to watch my season 1 on! :D

As far as bulletproofing goes, I once watched a program about bulletproofing and the cost alone is staggering! :shock: The body panels themselves are generally unchanged. However, the whole car from top to bottom is gutted and a thick layer of suppressant material (such as kevlar) is inserted direct...

Even though I'm typically not the practical type, I would have to say I would prefer KITT anyway because he is simply more practical than all the others (as far as real world application and function)! 8)

Thanks for the replies guys. I was needing an opinion from some of you out there who have been "around the Knight Rider block" longer than I have. Granted, I have been a fan since the 80's, I kind of lost track for a while. I know that I may be going through a really large rough patch, but...

Does anybody else get so wrapped up in all things Knight Rider that whenever they see a 1982-84 firebird in any condition, all they want to do is buy it and convert it? I'm sure I am not alone. As I sit here on my day off (which also happens to be my 30th birthday), I continue to daydream about what...

I finally got to pitch my idea to adult swim and may have to wait a while to find out if they liked it enough to use it down the line. While I was there, I came up with a great idea in how KITT comes to the neighborhood. I thought it would be funny if Carl were to come across KITT in a "governm...
