- Join me as I convert this $25 vintage toy Firebird into KITT from Knight Rider. I'm also making a custom Michael Knight figure, and diorama base to go with it.

Watching this reminds me of great times back in the 80s and the amazing shows on tv. Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazzard and Street Hawk were particular favourites. Thanks for the memories and look forward to part 2 of the build. Looking great already.
So happy to be able to help flip a nostalgia switch for you! Thank you!
you gotta make Michael Knight's evil twin brother lol
Haha I can't wait to get to that episode in my rewatch because I really wanna know how they explain it.
Garth… and thanks make Goliath!
Thinking of the same, keep going brother
Thank you! You should, I think it will be a fun project 🙌🏼
Nice work
Thanks very much!
Awesome effort. This is old video, but still you can check "1/12 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am" kit if you can find that will be close to mod.
I'm seeing a lot of late 70's models that are pretty expensive! Would have loved to find an 82 with accurate interior, but I think true 1/12 might be too small, as this one is more of a 1/10 scale (fits the figure scale better).
@@Ibrahim_M I see, whats the exact dimensions of this one? without the extra bumper part?
@@Mr767267 It's a little over 16 inches as it comes stock. I find that true 1/12 scale vehicles are closer to 15 inches, which doesn't sound like much, but it makes a big difference when you have a figure standing next to them. Sometimes you really can't tell until you've already bought the car, which sucks, haha.
Nice man… been wanting to do a similar project for years… gotta finish up the ones on my shelf I already started first… working on a back to the future Delorean for Neca figures…
Thank you! I'm planning one of those, too! I'm currently making a soft-goods Marty (just need to paint the head), and I have the body of the Delorean. So many parts on that one and I'd like to do a full interior-- we'll see how that goes, lol. Are you using the RC body for yours?
I’m actually using the LoL doll car-pool coupe… it’s surprisingly similar in body shape! (with heavy modifications) I was actually thinking of using the same car for KITT

And part 2 th-cam.com/video/Fzz45aueh6o/w-d-xo.html
Haven’t worked on it in a while, might jump on it next after my TIE fighter is done
Do you know of any vehicles for 12 inch figures
There are a few out there! Are you looking for anything in particular? I've seen a 2007-ish Mustang, a Chrysler 300, and I believe a Hummer, all in 1/6 scale. I believe only the Hummer had an interior-- they're all RC cars, though I'm not sure of the brand. I think New Bright is one of them. Then of course there are the Hot Toys Batmobiles, and BTTF Delorean, and the Blitzway Ecto-1.
how about airwolf?
I’ve never seen it! That’s the one with the helicopter?
@@Ibrahim_M yes it is.
