The little light looks like an alarm system indicator. It would make sense to have it close to the door so that it would let someone know that they would only have limited time to get to the alarm panel before some form of siren would sound.
you beat me to it lol defo think its an alarm indicator if you think of all the value that it used to hold (race car, tools and parts) it makes alot of scence
Agreed; my immediate thought was since the trailer had a 12V power system they might've used a car alarm on the trailer (thinking something akin to Viper/Compustar/Clifford) and those almost always had a flashing red light to mount on the dashboard indicating the system was armed.
Totally agree. Light is probably an external indicator to let one know that the door is locked and secure. I would tend to think it's factory but would take a much closer look to find out for sure.
I would absolutely love to see the trailer, and stand where you are. That would be phenomenal. I’d even like to sit in the tractor. Maybe even get stuck inside it.😉
It may be nothing, but I have just been watching the first Back to the Future and at after 20 minutes the Dr driver the Delorian out of his truck (before it goes back to 1955) which has fold down ramps like the flag trailer. In this section of the film you can see through the side door the winch system that was used for the ramps. Being it was also made by Universal maybe the systems are similar on both vehicles.
Yeah the weather is getting pretty brutal here in PA on Christmas Eve day. It was 2 degrees this morning here in the Lehigh Valley, and if memory serves me correctly you guys are much further north. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
While watching this video I just keep thinking this has to be such an amazing wonderful experience to work on such an important part of our history All of us that grew up watching Knight Rider. Yes the work you're doing looks tedious and hard but I'm sure it's super rewarding just to be part of it. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride.
Have a very happy Christmas Joe, your family and the rest of the KR historians team. These videos of the trailer and all the other stuff have been hugely enjoyable this year.
Merry Christmas guys it's been a fantastic year watching these videos and I have enjoyed every minute of it I have recently decided to rewatch Knight Rider again as this has resparked my interest in the show.
Sorry to keep bugging you with this question. Did you ever get a chance to check the back of the trailer for the remains of the six metal tabs which were added to the left side for "The Wrong Crowd" hijacking stunt. The tabs that the stuntman used as foot-holds as he was climbing the pipe. In a video that you made three months ago, "KITT's Tire Tracks in the Trailer? Removing Ceiling Panels & Flooring in the Knight Rider Dorsey!" You were noticing weld marks on the left side of the back of the trailer. I believe that these correspond to those tabs.
Plus if I may add. I drove to Deezerland museum this past week. In Orlando, Florida and saw the up to three K.I.T.T.'s up close. The Night 4000 was a boat. The convertible K.I.T.T. had clear windows rolled up plus the poor hood was badly dented up. Thank you.
Thanks Joe! Some people have got quite a bad Christmas eve here, this video is kinda helping. - Hope you and your family have a nice christmas on the other hand! Stay safe in that cold!
It's crazy to think if the studio hadn't removed the ramp when on the show all the subsequent owners probably wouldn't have made all those modifications to install their ramp
Watching you work is really great, and it MIGHT look easy but we know it is NOT at all (what the stamina!!!) and everything is organised so well. And now you discover another piece of long lost equippment!!! Awesome! Good Joe´s work it is. Thank you!
Hello. Set many of your videos. This is an incredibly large but important project, it means so much to all fans and viewers of the TV series Knight Rider. Used to watch the series and other series myself. Hope you really succeed with everything and that more people with experience/knowledge contribute by helping with this project. There is something special about TV series from that time, more alive and real. Never give up and keep us updated, really exciting.
I've always wanted to get that Knight Rider Companion and/or the other KR books since I was a kid. Might actually order them next year now that I am earning my own money for 1+ years :)
Another scene where they used a non-Jump Car for a jump(though an abridged one) that pops in my head was in "Trust Doesn't Rust." IIRC, they used the original General Purpose Stunt Car for that one, though I believe that was more of a light leap, as you guys pointed out it landed on what looks like an offscreen ramp.
The light could be an *action" light. A do not disturb due to filming in the trailer indicator. It's not gaudy, but placed near door for obvious visibility.
Cool episode Dan you're right it did dog gone cold oh well .I 'm just waiting for the other foot to drop and we get deep snow let it snow let it snow .
Funny enough, I watched 'Any which way you can' last night, and I noticed that at the beginning where the big rig is following cops on bikes to a Philo Beddow fight, then it blows its air horns, and the driver says 'sorry officer, my hand must of slipped', that was a GMC General, and it also had a sleeper cab fitted, as well as that Wilson in that movie was also in a KR episode, as well as the Hells Angels bike gang leader who was also in the Pilot episode.........small world isn't it LOL
Still checking these out. Still want to make a 1/25 model of this, maybe even one in the first black scheme as well. I have to scratchbuild the trailers because there is none like this. Also want to make the Smokey and bandit trailer which is similar, so make all three at the same time. Found out I have three KITT models. The Ford car carrier will also get done. Hopefully sometime later this year.
Junk Yard Dog has to be one of my favorite episodes. KITT loses it and has to deal with character growth and development. He has to gain back his confidence after losing a battle and his bruised and hurt self-image of him being invincible. Michael having to will KITT back. I love the Primer KITT. That would probably be MY personal KITT if I ever owned one.
I know you want to preserve as much original metal as possible but that rear panel will be so much easier to do, and to make look good, if you remove all of the remains at the bottom where it was cut down. Cut it out, use it as a template for the light positions, and thank it for being there to Guide* the way to restoring the tail lights. A single piece of new metal won't have all the warping that butt welding a new piece to the old piece will have. If the door popper used a gas cartridge it would be more practical to fit it with an air cylinder, tapped into the brake air supply. Who wants to have to climb up there time after time replacing a C02 cartridge? It would go with dressing the interior as close as possible to the stage set. Making "TV Magic" actually work like how it *looked like it worked* in the show. *Assuming Dorsey used Guide brand lights.
Considering the value of both drag cars and boats, which this trailer hauled, it's highly likely that it's a security alarm indicator it more then likely blinked to warn anyone about to mess with it when parked that there was alarm on the trailer, a little more b searching, and you might find a hole where there may have been a key switch that controlled it or it may have had a remote...
I'm Thinking the light was used to indicate 12v is turned on for the liftgate at 1 time. Correct, GMC Generals didnt come with Sleeper. I used to work on them as Tech. For Yellow Freight . Merry Christmas 🤘
GMC generals had what was called a coffin sleeper that's one of those little small ones. You had a little tiny opening the crawl back into it. I never saw them with stand-up sleepers from the factory
The little light near the side door is likely a post-Knight Rider modification, and wasn't there for the show. As for the rear door popper, instead of a pressurized gas ram (could be dangerous, and would require expensive co2 cartridges, or nitrogen/compressed air plumbing that could always fail, even though the tractor could easily supply compressed air for the trailer brakes) maybe an electric linear actuator would be a more elegant solution that would be easily repeatable, and more gently push the door open with a slowly applied force, instead of a blast of force that a pressurized gas popper would apply to the door...
You are doing a marvellous job Joe,hope you and your family had a nice Christmas and happy new year.Looking forward to seeing what the historians have to show us in 2023
@@KnightRiderHistoriansOfficial lol could you imagine them spinning that heavy trailer around to do a 180? It'd be like the bus at the beginning of Beverly Hills Cop 🤣🤣😜
I can afford to donate to the restoration myself but I'm sure just watching these videos help... I got a suggestion, I think whenever you decided to do the plaque of the names, I think the best place for it would be on the inside of the side door, as it's never opened in the show so you don't know what it looks like on the inside, and if you take it to event's or shows, whatever for people to see and enjoy, well how are the people going to get inside to see? Are they going to walk up the ramp? No they're probably going to go in the side door with some steps for the show, so it will be the 1st thing they will see, and that would be something special.
Hey Joe I’m not sure if you got carried away talking in the video but you never got to mention the new names added to the flag trailer restoration. I was hopping to see that part.
Ah great video Joe. I was thinking how it looked when this all began, with your son in the kitchen area, all those units up.... wow. Are you in one of those -30C areas of USA that I have seen in the news? Do keep safe. Frightening weather. Funny.. prob as cold as KITT made it for the tiger that fell in the car with "Sub Zero"...
The red light seems small for this purpose, but a lot of times there were red lights on sets to indicate that filming was occurring and quite was needed for clean audio.
Ah the conundrum. You need to feed the hungry spectators with content but winter is here... Funny thing is, even the little stuff matters to us. I could see you washing the windows and be happy. I probably need a better hobby... But nah. This fits me fine. Take care of yourself and the assets. Hugs from France. 💙
I have an impression, that we had an opportunity to saw those small LED. I remember a few episodes, when they made an macro shot of some red light. It was used usually in deactivation of the burglar alarm. I see this light and I can hear the sound related, but I can't remember which episode it was used 😉
Wow get it all in before the snow falls. Wait it hasn't fallen where you are? (Watching from Buffalo-Niagara, where Xmas Blizzard 22 has been happening for 24 hours and will last another 24 essentially housebounding us all.
I feel like the red light is probably just a little indicator light so in the dark you can find the side entrance door. Especially if you are parked at some raceway somewhere and it's pitch black and you don't want to be looking like you're drunk looking for a door
My guess is that there was almost a vacuum due to the effect of air coming over the top of the trailer, and the popper was a later addition after many problems filming moving scenes. My guess is that the door wouldn't move at all, or there was so much slack on the cables by the time that it moved that it jerked hard when it fell.
I wonder if that light was turned on as a warning for when they were lowering the ramp. At first I thought maybe to let people know if they are welding and not to enter, but i don't think I would want to weld on a drag car in an enclosed place. I think you accidentally edited out the close up of the list of names. IMerry Christmas and a happy New Year, to you and your family.
Hello Joe, is there another payment type we can use to pay for the name to be put in the trailer like cash app or Venmo? Sorry, I don’t use PayPal? Thank you.
Hello, thank you for the quick response but as I tried to use the email you posted, it gives me a mail delivery failure? Says address not found. Can you double check it please? Ty@@KnightRiderHistoriansOfficial
At 2:14, who is that helper they have? It's neat the lengths you are going through to preserve tv history with the trailer and the tractor. I can't imagine the steps taken to find both. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year🎅🎅.
When you fabricate the replacement for the rear of the trailer, are you better to use a section from another trailer rather than fabricate. I assume if a roller door is reinstated you will want the latch that it connects to which is a recessed pin in the floor for the hook on the door to catch. Using a section of an old trailer will also blend in better than using new steel to fill the gap. Good luck anyway regardless how you approach it.
We'd certainly consider it, the problem is finding a Dorsey from that era WITH a roll up door. The few Dorseys we've found have a swing style door, and that whole panel is totally different. When we are done, you won't be able to tell old vs new metal! It all gets covered with diamond plate anyways.
The little light looks like an alarm system indicator. It would make sense to have it close to the door so that it would let someone know that they would only have limited time to get to the alarm panel before some form of siren would sound.
you beat me to it lol defo think its an alarm indicator if you think of all the value that it used to hold (race car, tools and parts) it makes alot of scence
Agreed; my immediate thought was since the trailer had a 12V power system they might've used a car alarm on the trailer (thinking something akin to Viper/Compustar/Clifford) and those almost always had a flashing red light to mount on the dashboard indicating the system was armed.
Agreed. In 80’s small red led are used for alarm to alert time they have to disarm it and as a deterrent to thief since often it blinks when armed.
Totally agree. Light is probably an external indicator to let one know that the door is locked and secure. I would tend to think it's factory but would take a much closer look to find out for sure.
Makes a lot of sense.
I would absolutely love to see the trailer, and stand where you are. That would be phenomenal. I’d even like to sit in the tractor. Maybe even get stuck inside it.😉

Yeah we’re about to get socked with the snow. If it didn’t take so much work I’d say put holiday lights on the tractor and trailer.
Oooo that would have been a fantastic idea had I thought of it a week ago!!

The little light is typical of that era car alarm indicators. Probably had a key switch somewhere. I'd guess during the trailer's race car days.

Awesome video and update trailer looking so much better great job . Be easier with plasma cutter.
the light might have been an indicator for when they were filming. a "do not enter, filming in progress" light if you will.

I have an impression, that we had an opportunity to saw those small LED. I remember a few episodes, when they made an macro shot of some red light. It was used usually in deactivation of the burglar alarm. I see this light and I can hear the sound related, but I can't remember which episode it was used 😉
excellent video interesting find
You should add a donate button to your channel.
I would use an air cylinder like the ones to slide the fifth wheel to replicate the door popper.
Wow get it all in before the snow falls. Wait it hasn't fallen where you are? (Watching from Buffalo-Niagara, where Xmas Blizzard 22 has been happening for 24 hours and will last another 24 essentially housebounding us all.
Haha yes. This was filmed last week
the red light maybe made sense for whenever the drop deck was moving, so no one would get squashed by it.
can you get together with a video game company and make a Knight Rider Game that is very interactive and that goes along with the 80+ episodes
The bottom of the outside trailer ramp had 4 caster wheels when kitt would leave the truck
I feel like the red light is probably just a little indicator light so in the dark you can find the side entrance door. Especially if you are parked at some raceway somewhere and it's pitch black and you don't want to be looking like you're drunk looking for a door
That peice that is missing looks like part of the Mansfield bumper support.
My guess is that there was almost a vacuum due to the effect of air coming over the top of the trailer, and the popper was a later addition after many problems filming moving scenes. My guess is that the door wouldn't move at all, or there was so much slack on the cables by the time that it moved that it jerked hard when it fell.
40:40 I bet that when it was a race trailer someone had an alarm system and that was the Arm light that flashed or stayed steady
Light could possibly be warning indicator, "winch in operation do not enter"
AWESOME Video Dude. And I Hope That Everyone Is Having A Wonderful Christmas Time. 🎅👍.
10:30 IR diode for remote control?
What are you gonna do to the metal pile sell it or keep it
We will sell it and put the money back into the trailer.
I wonder if that light was turned on as a warning for when they were lowering the ramp. At first I thought maybe to let people know if they are welding and not to enter, but i don't think I would want to weld on a drag car in an enclosed place. I think you accidentally edited out the close up of the list of names. IMerry Christmas and a happy New Year, to you and your family.
10:24 I would guess, it was some kind of a (fake?) car alarm from an owner after universal studios.

Your beard has grown. 😀 Frohe Weihnachten 🎄 ( Merry Christmas ) from Hamburg / Germany .
the light was to show the set is hot
Which set? The trailer set was on a sound stage.
Any set with Bonnie is hot.
Could you bring in one or two of the original crew to walk you through the trailer setup ?
