Sir, I have no complaints. As a fan of Knight Rider when I was a kid, I see this as a remarkable work of art. I hope you bought yourself a steak dinner after you finished that masterpiece, because, frankly, you deserved it.
Absolutely fantastic bob! Always looking out for your kitt videos. I have a 84 and will be starting the conversion soon. Will be great to have u here in cape town to get your seal of approval. Thankfull for all the good advice. So excited! Love ya Robert.
Video bob. Your kitt is beautiful. I agreed with you about how other will say about it not accurate kitt. It about how fun it was to build and make one person a big difference. That what video bob shop is all about. Your all about “ one man make a difference “. Thumbs NBC I’ll be there!. 😉
I used to rebuild and repair those headlights when I worked on GM, Corvette, Fiero, Trans-Am/F-Bird cars. I'm a Retired GM Master Tech, ASE Master, as well as Toyota and Mopar Master, over 40 years experience including factory, street, and custom cars. Wish you were closer to me, I'd love to be a part of building cars like this..!!! Thanks for showing this!!
This is gonna be a bit random but have you ever been asked to build any of the vans out of say Short Circuit? Those nova vans would be pretty sweet as a camper 😀
I have KITT and KARR ..1 FOR 25 YEARS AND 1 FOR 10 YEARS..both daily Fast drivers..lol..they are a lil complicated to drive..but well driven.ive made them to my liking using different parts and manufacturers too. Good job sir!
Nice work. Valid observation about "screen accuracy.". I like that you use your imagination, and concentrate more on the "fun feel of the show." I consider myself a die-hard fan of the show. Knight Rider was a huge part of my childhood, and I still like to re-watch episodes when I can. And I just want to say, awesome job!
Great restoration and fantastic Knight Rider replica. The lamp fade on the "scanner" on the front is absolutely perfect. Have seen people go LED with these and it just doesn't look right. Also love the detail about how you ran the audio. And the dash looks amazing. Interior looks great. Wonderful job!
Brian Thompson I’ve heard that someone is making scanners using older style halogen lamps which gives it the proper fade. But they’re very expensive and suck down a lot of power, and also put off a bunch of heat. There may be some better LED versions now that can mimic the fade look.
@@brianthompson1138 no, the original authentic style KITT scanner used 8 55-watt halogen bulbs. Almost 450 watts of power and heat coming off the thing!
Massive fan of Knight Rider since I was four years old. This is a beautiful reproduction of the car, as to me it's not so much about the individual switches (some which were used once never to be seen again) but whether you can look at the car and get that rush of nostalgia and love that fans got when watching the show. This definitely is one of the replicas which ticks all the boxes for me. Outstanding job. Now, if only I had $75,000+ dollars...
Car looks great to me dude. You make a good point about haters and trolls though. Everyone is an expert in the peanut gallery that is youtube comments. If anyone trolls one of my comments i just delete it. It's nice to be nice...and if you can't be, it's best to say nothin. Anway, great work my friend..respect and peace to you.
Hi Bob. There is nobody more qualified than yourself and your team to build these prop cars properly. The haters are just completely ignorant and should just be ignored. I appreciate all the hard work that goes into each car, and this car looks like another great example which the owner will be proud to own. If I could afford it, I'd have you build me a time machine !! All the best mate !
As a Knight Rider fan with three 3rd gen Firebirds in the garage, this car has my respect. Someone wants to nit-pick this and that on the car? That's cool. Is their KITT better and more accurate?
I grew up with knight rider in 80s Ireland 🇮🇪 always loved KITT, such a cool car and my God you did a fantastic job, I'll be calling you if I win the lottery. 👍😁
Hey Bob the haters are gonna hate because they are jealous, fact is if the customer is happy with the car and you're happy to put your name to it then sod everyone else
It's not hard to understand why KITT gets so much attention when outside. Because of how rare it is. Like even thought Bob's rolls royce is nice and all, if i had to choose between that and KITT, i would take KITT every single time. It's both nostalgic, but it's stylish as well. Imo they have never made a more stylish car, it might be old, but it still to this very day in 2020, looks futuristic. That's quite a feat.
My first car was a 82 Trans Am base model with 5.0 liter V8 with 4 barrel carb and with 13 inch wheels with the bowling ball covers. KITT was a 82 TA with crossfire fuel injection and 14 inch wheels. My car came with the lower fender fairings you mentioned. Lost a cover to a pothole and bought a new one from GM Parts in 85. It was different in that it had metal clips to hold on to the wheel better. I eventually upgraded to the 15 inch wheels and low profile tires that the 85 and later TAs had. Made a big improvement in ride quality. My car started life as metallic silver with lt grey interior. Had it repainted all black after a light accident. The silver had started going bad. Laughed when the Formulas came out in all one color and 16 inch similar wheels. Had two of them. A 89 and a 91 both all black with lt grey interior. Both with the turbo hood. With the nonfunctional plastic block off panel.
A friend of mine built one, he also built a Mystery Machine and an Ecto One. They were different interpretations but most wont even care as they look enough like originals to them. What really counts as the quality of the interpretation that you make. Your Knight Rider car is as nice of one as I’ve seen.
Another masterpiece. You do turn out the best TV/movie cars. To hell with the nitpickers, trolls and hacks who pollute your site with their endless whining. Can't wait to see you do a Family Truckster. :)
I don't wear suspenders but don't they typically replace a belt? I see you have a belt and suspenders. Are they meant to be used together? Legit question.
You did a excellent job reproducing this car from the show. I've watched all 4 seasons and they used different cars in every scene and episode. There are even quick shots of a small model that isn't the same car. It's still a great show.
Nice KITT! I spend roughly 2 years restoring my car, that's without worrying about installing a dasboard and most of the other interior gimmicks. Now I'm more in the process of improving the car rather than making it a full interior replica. Such a nice cruiser! Air conditioning service was a must for me, giving that it gets super hot under the glass roof in the summer.
I forgot to ask Bob, is this Trans Am a 5.0 or 5.7 please? To be honest I'd prefer a manual and I think it makes you're car even more unique as I'm sure they weren't very popular from the factory. Shame I live in the UK I would love to experience seeing these cars up close, KITT replicas over here are extremely rare. All the best.
Great looking KITT Bob! The guys who get bent out of shape about the "accuracy" of it...they need to move out of their mother's basements and learn of the joys of boobs!
It looks fantastic mate! Can we have a walk around video on ECTO 1 please? In fact, a detailed walk around on ALL the cars you do would be awesome! Keep up the great videos.
i would suggest putting some sort of tight or rigid supports beneath the entire dash , because when you press the buttons on the right side the dash warps a little bit , which makes it a bit of a buzz kill .. a rigid dash will add to the closer to reality feel ...
Great video! Great car! Love your comments about the haters and idiots that comment. Nobody wants to hear them!!! I have a starsky torino and a mad max car. 99% of the people that see the cars don't really know the real details of the cars anyways! Everyone has their memories of what they remember or maybe saw a quick old video of it. The important part is to have them look correct, everything else is just fun stuff. I love the 80s car stuff. I'm a big car guy, muscle cars and cool cars. You seem very smart, detailed and to the point, love that! And I like all the stuff you did to the inside of the car. That's how I would want on!! Great job!!
Sir, I have no complaints. As a fan of Knight Rider when I was a kid, I see this as a remarkable work of art. I hope you bought yourself a steak dinner after you finished that masterpiece, because, frankly, you deserved it.
This is too cool! Your attention to detail is insane! Very well thought out.
Awesome job. Love it......wouldn't change a thing
Can't wait to see the LS1 conversion KITT!
Absolutely fantastic bob! Always looking out for your kitt videos. I have a 84 and will be starting the conversion soon. Will be great to have u here in cape town to get your seal of approval. Thankfull for all the good advice. So excited! Love ya Robert.
The car looks amazing looks authentic to me.
Video bob. Your kitt is beautiful. I agreed with you about how other will say about it not accurate kitt. It about how fun it was to build and make one person a big difference. That what video bob shop is all about. Your all about “ one man make a difference “. Thumbs NBC I’ll be there!. 😉
I love it when a plan comes together.
Now that looks amazing. great job!!
Hey Bob! That is a great looking KITT! Another beautiful build! Great work.
Super duper kool bob
TH-cam recommendations did good! This is awesome 🙌🏼😎
I think you guys build awesome Knight Rider, Back to the Future , A-team and Ghost Busters vehicles 😎🇺🇸
An amazing job you did. It looks amazing.
Pretty friggin sweet!
Very nice work VideoBob! I bet driving this WILL get ton's of looks and when parked ton's of finger prints!
You summed it up perfectly when you said "Fun"! That's what cars like this are all about, making people smile! Good work!
I want the Hoff wig on if I was driving it

Great job bob!
I will be a Client soon
I want my KITT.
Just wow! I wish I had the money to have you build an awesome replica. Love your videos and the talent you and your team have!
Somebody needs to make 12:38 into a GIF, that was funny...
please!
Aw that was nice, he stopped in the middle of his conversation to let KITT speak💞
This is BADASS Bob , love all your builds if I win the megaball your my first call
Nice Job Bob.
You've done an amazing job on this. The KITT cars are works of art and I can't imagine how much time and expense goes toward creating them.
Our Night Riders are the best in the world, so original an detailed.....
30 seconds later: We used a 5-gear manual Trans Am....
Super nice Bob! Change "nice" to incredible. I'd like to have Columbo's Studebaker!
Who gives a shit if it's not screen accurate, if that was parked on my drive I'd have a permanent smile!
For sure!!
Wow,awesome build Bob! Thanks for the awesome video tour!
Another great build. Kudos to you and your team you guys do absolutely stunning work.
This is gonna be a bit random but have you ever been asked to build any of the vans out of say Short Circuit? Those nova vans would be pretty sweet as a camper 😀
I imagine they would be very hard to disassemble 😀
Andy Hardisty reassemble? 😂
@@OTwinSnakesO Squash, dead. Disassemble, dead. Disassemble...! DEAD!!!!!!
Malfunction....need input...... Wouldn't you like to be a pepper to
I love this car 😋👍🏼 this is one of my favorites car
Great result Bob!
*WOW* !!!!! *Your KITT car is FAB* !!!! *You have thought out each DETAIL very nicely* !!!! #VideoBobMoseley

Bob’s impression of a troll is priceless.
you did a great job! thats awesome!
You guys should be proud 4 what you have done . Well done video Bob 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👍

Very nice work, great Kitt! Thanks for sharing.
Cool bit of kitt 😎🇬🇧
I am MEGA-IMPRESSSED! This is incredible! Seeing KITT talk again was the best!
Looks really cool, glad to see it done.
Your guys interior work is always top notch. Nobody does it as good as your team. Truly amazing.
The finished product was worth the effort. Looks fantastic. Keep rockin, Bob. 😎👍
Had the chance for one in the early 2000s for £12k dame I missed out.still dream of owning one day 🔥❤️🏴bob
This is ridiculously good! The 40 min video loop and sound effects you created. Attention to detail!! subbed
Look awesome bob

oh my days Bob! kitt looks fantastic.look at the effort that went into making this icon come to life,thanks for the video!
Looks dope! Great work!
37 days til VEGAS, I actually requested a pic of KITT be in my room when I arrive, I'll let you know if the hotel fulfills the request 🤣
Another awesome video Bob. Thanks. You must have one helluva good electrical guy that does all the wiring. 🏁
The segment addressing the haters was hillarious! This is a great build. Independent electrical for the KR functions is a great feature.
As a Knight Rider fan with three 3rd gen Firebirds in the garage, this car has my respect. Someone wants to nit-pick this and that on the car? That's cool. Is their KITT better and more accurate?
Man!!!!!!!!! My 7th grade year this show came out. And I absolutely loved it. Great work bro..... I want one😊😊😊😊😊 👍 👍 👍 👍 .
I grew up with knight rider in 80s Ireland 🇮🇪 always loved KITT, such a cool car and my God you did a fantastic job, I'll be calling you if I win the lottery. 👍😁
Sweet lookin Ride. I unfortunately had to get rid of my kitt project. Great job!!!

Car parts suppliers unreliable, you say? I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.
Love what you do, Bob. You’re a master to your craft!
finally a builder that doesnt go ,,my replica is the best and screen accurate ,, xD, bless you sir
I'm a big fan of knight rider
No, he saves that for the Back To The Future car. 😉
Another masterpiece. You do turn out the best TV/movie cars. To hell with the nitpickers, trolls and hacks who pollute your site with their endless whining. Can't wait to see you do a Family Truckster. :)
It's a good thing that K.I.T.T. never had to warm up before taking on the bad guys or the world today would be a much different place.
I don't wear suspenders but don't they typically replace a belt? I see you have a belt and suspenders. Are they meant to be used together? Legit question.
conrad schultzman I have both a wallet and a money clip.
Sometimes I will have both beans and peas. It’s crazy!
I use both as a failsafe safety backup. Nobody wants to see my 64 year old ass!
You did a excellent job reproducing this car from the show. I've watched all 4 seasons and they used different cars in every scene and episode. There are even quick shots of a small model that isn't the same car. It's still a great show.

Awesome! Love this car.
Excellent build brought back my childhgood, I personally believe your A-Team Vans were the Greatest!!!!!
When he did the voice at 14:09 I about pissed myself
Can you do a “how to” video for the install of the kitt car light bar?
Nice KITT! I spend roughly 2 years restoring my car, that's without worrying about installing a dasboard and most of the other interior gimmicks. Now I'm more in the process of improving the car rather than making it a full interior replica. Such a nice cruiser!

Nice end result, especially the paint. Glad to see it completed.

Dude, your "basement of the science building" impression made me spit beer all over my TV!!!!
lol, the superfans, like Shatner on SNL, “Get a life!” 😂
Looks amazing. The Street Hawk fans know that there were up to 15 different bikes so I know where your coming from.
@falchulkfacebook.com/groups/261343934249218/
Bob you did a good job on the car? I'm a big fan of Knight Rider
Great build. The charging system seems very similar to a marine system for boats. I hope the buyer enjoys it.
This is a fantastic replica, one that myself and many of my friends would be proud to own.
hey bob do yall do finance for the cars built?
Dude I love the car. Heck, I want one! :)
Great looking KITT Bob! The guys who get bent out of shape about the "accuracy" of it...they need to move out of their mother's basements and learn of the joys of boobs!
The guys who are bent out of shape and living in mom's basement are bent because they cant get the girls boobs!! Lol
It looks fantastic mate! Can we have a walk around video on ECTO 1 please? In fact, a detailed walk around on ALL the cars you do would be awesome! Keep up the great videos.
He's done a few vids on details about his cars.
I’ll have to have look through his channel.

He's got a lot of material.
i would suggest putting some sort of tight or rigid supports beneath the entire dash , because when you press the buttons on the right side the dash warps a little bit , which makes it a bit of a buzz kill .. a rigid dash will add to the closer to reality feel ...
you could conect it to SIRI that would be cool
I might try to go this year ! Maybe get to meet you !
I LOVE THAYT KNIGHT RIDER K.I.T.T GOOD WORK BOB WHO CARES WHAT PEOPLE THINK GOOD WORK CONGRATES YOUR FRIEND IAN FROM LONDON ONT CANADA
