For millions was the talking car PUTTY of the American television series Knight Rider the hero of childhood. Produced from 1982 to 1986, the crime thriller action series with science fiction elements was about the hero Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff) and the car KITT equipped with artificial intelligence to pass countless tests in the fight for justice. And even if you tried later, the film Knight Rider 2000 (1991) and also the series Team Knight Riders (1997-1998) flopped completely. And also another television series from 2008 under the title Knight Rider - KITT in danger! and a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR in the main role was already set after the first season. KITT does exist only as 1982 Pontiac Trans Am in black - BASTA !!!
Knight Rider as "Hell-KITT"
And that's exactly what the virtual artists of Abimelec design thought. Still, the rendering specialists wanted one modern interpretation by KITT. So you just took the old Pontiac from the eighties and a few typical ones Restomod details equipped to make it fit for the future. And the result is very successful as we think and should perhaps be called by Universal Television (UTV for short) Alternative to the previous attempts to be implemented in reality. Then the success of a continuation should also be guaranteed. We see it as being much less dramatic to replace the main actor David Hasselhoff. The focus is and has always been on PUTTY
V8 crate engine with supercharging
And KITT is now called according to Abimelec "Hell-KITT" and is much more massive than the original. The 1982 Trans Am got far issued fenders all around, which are much fancier than the old one Great pursuit fashion. There was also a violent one Lowering and a black one Motorsport wheelset with Central locking and TOYO slippers. The typical chaser in the front has been replaced by a modern LED variant and otherwise there have actually been no changes to the body. In contrast to the mighty one V8 crate engine under the hood with supercharged. Compared to the original V8 from back then, the engine should actually achieve performance in the range of Great pursuit fashion enable. Maybe a portion too ONGOING and the Knight Rider revival is over, right? Have fun looking at the pictures and stay true to us!
