I believe the one you're talking about was of the 1/24 scale plastic Ertl model, not the 1/18 die-cast one. But I'm waiting for the day someone makes a Super Pursuit Mode model out of the 1/18th version. I'm sure sooner or later someone will do it.

Yeah, to the best of my knowledge no-one has done 1:18 SPM, however there are plastic kit SPM models created by some very talented people. Think Josch who posts on here was doing one.

I have plans to do a 1:18 SPM, but as its not going to be easy i've not had the time to work out the design for it. Too busy working on other projects at the moment.

Nice job on that SPM version, Joe! For not building models too often, you did a fantastic job on it. :) I am not thinking of doing an SPM KITT though. I'm not sure. Looks quite complicated.

Hope you don't mind, but as you wanted to know about a 1:18 SPM KITT, you can follow its progress over on Knight Rider UK, and i'm sorry to say its not me who is making it.

Did you check to see that you had signed in?

p.s. don't forget to post your praise on there so that he can see it :D
and people shouldn't really be posting his pictures here or anywhere without his permission hense me doing the link for you.

I'm not trying to start Knight Rider site wars, just letting fellow modelers out there know
