- For those of you that asked. Here's a tour of my Knight Rider Car. I'll be posting many more videos coming up. Follow me on Facebook at Facebook.com/kittblasius or on instagram @ therealchrisblasius P.s This is not the Fast and Loud car.
Beautiful car, it's just now that I realized the dashboard lights reminds me of Christmas with all the colorful lights.
I love you, man. This is the car that I always wanted as a kid and you built it. Awesome work.
Haha thanks Omar, Yes i get chills overtime i see it in my garage
I feel like I'm 11 years old right now ❤
@@ChrisBlasius u are the man sir my hats off to u sir
Eetyhu. K9
@@ChrisBlasiushi i love kitt the talking Black car knight rider
This is an astoundingly good replica. The intelligence that went into the electronics and the mixer alone are phenomenal, and the fact you included the turbine sound and controller is awesome. What an absolute work of art that is, it's lovely to see the spirit of that show kept alive by dedicated fans such as yourself!
Thanks Alex!!
Knight Rider I WISH I HAVE THIS CAR IN THIS VEDIO I WANT ONE
The turbine sold me. F'n badass!!!!
This is worthy of a lot of fan comments... Time to share the shit out of this!!!!!
Replica how ?? It’s kitt
I've watched a few of these and yours is by FAR the best I've ever seen.
I'm 52 years old and I just drooled on myself watching this. Watched Knight Rider in my young days.
It's so timeless never gets old.
Thanks for having all us 80's boys live vicariously through you Chris. We salute you
And people say money doesn't buy happiness.
Maybe "money doesn't 'buy' happiness!" But MAN, it sure, *SWEETENS the SUFFERING!*
usually broke people who say that.
Facts!!!!.
@@MrVee24 money is like the wind you only feel it when its movin😋
Maybe it buys fulfillment.
This is the most impressive KITT I've ever seen!! I"m now 40 and grew up watching Knight Rider and Dukes of Hazzard, so my dream would be to have both of them....KITT being #1 on my list. Amazing job!! The pain looks flawless, but I guess if it's garaged and not driven that helps.
Thanks marc! My paint guy is incredible. They took it down to medal, skim coated the whole car, block sanded and then sprayed it with Single Stage. I did the final buff out. IMHO, nothing beats a black single stage paint job.

Cris parabéns cara, sou Luciano, Brasil...é um sonho realizado ver o Kitt real na tua garage, muito incrivel..demais, muito schou.....perfeito.....espero poder te visitar algum dia.....é um sonho....fantástico...não perdia um episódio da séria...tenho uma réplica do kitt de brinquedo, minha relíquea e lembrança de infância....não canso de revirar o you tube olhando os trans am....amo demais, que lembrança boa....parabéns...abraço...Deus te abençoe....abraço cara.....
Man the trouble I used to cause my dad as a kid because of KITT’S SELF DRIVING FEATURE😂🙈 I’d always ask/order my dad to let go of the steering so his poor Toyota Corolla could drive itself like my favorite car KITT did.
One day when I’ve made enough money,I’m definitely flying to the US to custom make my own KITT KITT COME ON ride😉
BEAUTIFUL car you’ve built,bringing back sweet memories of my childhood growing up in South Africa in the 80’s.
It’s this car, AIRWOLF and THE A-TEAM’s TRUCK, i want them all.
Thank you for showing letting us into your home and showing us your beautiful machine.
Much love and respect from RSA🇿🇦👊🏿
The wireless battery disconnect is brilliant. I used a simple, manual marine cut-off switch on the battery terminal on an old Rolls (Lucas electrical) and it was annoying having to remove the access panel in the trunk to get to it every time I put it back into the garage.
I used to enjoy this show also when I was a young boy! And you've replicated it exactly - awesome!!!
I found your channel today. I can't stop watching your videos. Why? This is not just the very best K.I.T.T. I've seen since I first watched Knight Rider as a child, it's a journey of your attention to detail and technical knowledge realising a dream not only for yourself but for the enjoyment of others. I wish you success financially in your efforts to take your work around to shows and appearances. I also offer condolences to those that have a K.I.T.T. or wish to build a K.I.T.T. The bar got raised, VERY HIGH!
Thanks so much for the kind comment and noticing all the hard work, Feel free to check out all the other videos, I have a lot more coming! Thanks again!
I'd love to see this car in person. I got my 7 yr old son hooked on this show and he would be in heaven seeing it, too.
Best replica I've ever seen. Great job
Thanks Draco!
Just wanted to relive the 80s and started watching Knight Rider on Netflix. Think I'm gonna start looking for that Trans Am and make a KITT. Thanks for the inspiration. Very cool job man.
One of the best KITT replica's ever my childhood Chris I was only 8 when Knight Rider came out back in 1982 my Saturday TV in the UK
This is the nicest replica I've seen! Your attention to detail is amazing! This is a work of art!!! Hope to see you bring it to San Antonio sometime!
I grew up on this show. I love to see a fan such as yourself do this. So awesome and great job!
Your Kitt replica with its 21st century electronic technology must be much more sophisticated then the cars originally used thirty years ago on the original television series .
Incredible car I love the setup you have with the electronics one of the best kitt car replicas I’ve ever seen!
That turbine is the dopest thing I've ever seen on a replica!
This is AMAZING! Very clean! Amazing job keeping the seat fabric spot on to the original!
Man, it's really awesome! Congrats.
I'm a knight rider fan from Brazil.
Oh, wow... awesome job! I think this is the best looking replica ive seen so far. My compliments!
That is beyond bad ass! I was 5 years old in 1982! I remember having the Atair video game Night Driver, that reminded me of Night Rider! Thanks for sharing!
FANTASTIC, THAT TURBINE SOUND I WOULD USE IT IF I WERE DRIVING AROUND TOWN !!!!!!!
Bro this is the most actual show driven KITT replica I have ever seen. Wow! As a Knight Rider fan since I was 4 years old you did the car justice.
Love your KITT replica.You've done an excellent job.I drove KITT twice in 2018 on one of those experience days,it was a really unforgetable experience. The car i drove had the yoke steering wheel,i found that to be quite easy to drive with.
Just amazing!! If people only knew the amount of time and money it takes to do something like this. VERY clean job, your drive and determination is through the roof. I hope she treats you well, and you get years of enjoyment out of her!!
This is my favorite TV show Knight Rider. Beautiful car
Fabulous work there! Really is a brilliant replica, would love to see it in the flesh. Used to love the show (old enough to remember it first time around!) ;)
Hit me up if you're ever in Ohio!
Absolutely - you can count on that! Would love to feature you and the car on our channel - all things retro and 80's rule!
Very nice..I like the way the buttons make different sounds. .
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen. I would give up an organ for this car. Incredible build, man. Thank you for sharing.
Wow that would totally be my dream ride! Beautifully done!
Must have taken a lifetime to build that,,,, very nice
has to be absolutely nice to own this car.
Awesome job on the car...loved the show back in the day. Great video
The best kitt replica I've seen yet!
Thanks much!
hands down the best example i've seen to date.
Simply astonishing, I wanted this car as a kid and literally had dreams about driving KITT and seeing the red light. Have you ever heard him talk when your out of the garage? That would give me goosebumps!
This is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. And I'm even a fan of the show! WELL DONE!!!!
Wow, that's amazing and must be really cool to drive around in? The car is based on the Knigh Rider TV Show KITT car and by replicating KITT it is like a KITT car itself with all the gadgets on it, separate dashboard lights, remote power cut off, 2 screen displays, all the different voice samples at the touch of a button(s), Turbo Boost sound, internal sound, external sound, turbine sound which sounds great by the way (try and set it up to work with gas pedal) I am sure it is a big hit at Knight Rider shows, well done 👍
Wow!!! You know, I usually pride myself in not being materialistic or wanting what others have..... But this video had me desiring to just sit in that car and play for hours and hours on end!!! Tks brother!!! One heck of dream come true car!!!
Never missed a show lol my favorite of all time! Even had the pajamas 😂😂
+haha that's amazing!!!Nonya Business
Knight Rider hell yea lol
Awesome replica of KITT thats always been a dream of mine since I was a kid cudos to you for now im trying to get a comlink just like the one you have from the show
I really don't understand why is there a hundred and twenty-nine thumbs down unbelievable, jealousy to the max LOL this car is straight up gorgeous and hot drive it in good health sir.
I don’t know how I got here, but this was cool. You brought me back to the 80’s.
The way how you've got the camera angled on your KITT Replica, it reminds me of the pilot episode Knight of the Phoenix!
Sweet brother love it. I'm 45 I loved Knight Rider as a kid I had the talking you car and that was cool back in 84 . Man look at what they have now , real life kit cars . Anyhow thanks .
NICE AWESOME TOUR OF THE 1982 KNIGHT RIDER KITT REPLICA! TOTALLY NICE JOB!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀💖💖💖💖💖✅✅✅✅✅
This is amazing, well done. I'm very jealous.
I annoyed my dad for weeks to go and get my photo taken with KITT back in the 80s, the car was touring while the show was airing here in Australia. From memory it looked exactly like this. The photo was a Polaroid and faded in the late 90s. I collected all the models and toys, wish I kept them all.
As an appreciator of back to the future deloreans, I can say this car looks pretty bad ass.
Insane! Well done with the build. Top quality!
: / HEY CHRIS, I JUST FOUND THIS VIDEO.. YOU HAVE DONE AN INCREDIBLE AND UNBELIEVABLE JOB HERE! YOU MADE ONE OF YOUR DREAMS HAPPEN! THIS SHOULD STAND AS AN INSPIRATION AND EXAMPLE TO OTHERS WHO DOUBT MAKING SOME OF THEIR OWN DREAMS ACTUALLY HAPPEN! GREAT JOB! SERIOUSLY! REALLY COOL!
Man this is amazing! Great job!
I'm totally having a nerdgasm over this right now. I'm so glad I stumbled upon meeting you on facebook. Knight Rider was my favorite show as a kid and no matter what the Hoff did/does in his life, he will always be remembered as Michael Knight in my eyes. I'm pretty sure that show is the reason I've been in to fast cars my entire life. I'm enamored in the detail that went in to KITT. Amazing. Why am I getting emotional? Is this weird?
HAHA thanks man! Yup, Knight Rider is the cause of my car obsession today. Yea it's crazy what nostalgic things do to all of us. Ive sat through a couple sob stories from 90 year old crying grandmas telling me they used to watch Knight Rider with their late husband. When they see the car, it brought back all the good memories they had with them. Now if a car can do that, Thats pretty sweet!
@@ChrisBlasius That's awesome. Non-car people just never understand. Like my wife unfortunately lol.
you have the best set up I have seen man you got a sweet K.I.T.T. I am officially very envious if I ever come into money I'm going to have one built or contact you my friend :)
Something else you can do for the dash displays - in some eps there was a view of the road from the front of the car. So hang a pair of gopros from the bumper, trigger them with the gopro remote, and take a 20 minute drive. Then you can put the vid through whatever processing you like to make KITT's-eye-view footage of the road, one for each display.
George Erhard funny you say that, I actually have a camera mounted inside the tow bar on the front bumper and a rear camera. With a flick of a switch, they can be seen on the tvs
Well done this is a lovely build keep up the good work
I think this is better than the real KITT very nice job, I want one.
So you're saying that you've never gone out in the car on the highway at 3:00 AM with the Knight Rider Theme blaring out the speakers and the scanner running while punching the Turbo Boost button. ;-)
Some day.... Some day :)
Oh yes.... he has... and does...
we can only wonder :) imagine the nostalgia rush one must get from that, having a perfect pristine KITT replica with all bells and whistles, and then sneaking out at night taking it for a night drive with the audio system blasting the main theme and all the Don Peake soundtrack goodies.... this guy is living the dream for sure ! :)
I wonder if he can pick up chics just like Michael Knight did in that car back in the day.
@@remingtonsteele3581 to videos super pursuit mode
Looks gorgeous! Must be a blast to drive around -- minus the steering wheel, maybe. ☺️
Beautifully done. Hell of a job!
Man, if I hit the Austrian Lottery jackpot, I'd like to buy KITT from you. Many greetings from Carinthia, Austria.
Wow that's a pretty cool car from what I understand that was even better than the ones that they used in the actual show and I really like that remote battery disconnect thing That's pretty neat
you done amazing job on ur kitt car very nice
Actually Kitt DID have seat belts in one episode. A three point harness racing seat belt to be exact. When Michael enters a demolition derby.
There were different cars used for same scenes. At one moment you would see a car with seatbelts, then from the next camera angle without seatbelts because they used a different car for that shot. This happened pretty much throughout all 4 seasons. 80s TV series production quality wasn't that precise but it had charm. :-)
I don’t know how survived all these years without all these vital buttons and sound effects in my car
Kudos for building it it looks amazing
Wow, this must be one of the best most complete Replicas I've ever seen in my Life. I can only hope to find out how to acquire all the parts to have one as Complete as yours soon enough.
Thanks ... feel free to check out my other videos :)
Amazing and would definitely use the season one dash if I was building a replica as that is after all the original dash
You asked in the video, if we had any questions we should just ask you... I have one: why do you have Atari joysticks in there?!? Lol... (Perhaps you get a little bored at times???) Retro-gaming in the downtime!!! ALRIIIGHT!!!
Love the car (like everyone!), wish I had one (also like everyone!), and I wish you more than the best of times with your creation and your life!
Have an amazing day as well!!!
-PGB-
That is so awesome!!! That is something to be VERY proud of.
Wow That's awsome!!! Best show,
best car, and theme song
Man is amazing what you have done
My all time favourite movie and car
A mate of mine has a replica here in Australia but not as good as yours wow thank you
Great KITT!!! Love the interactive buttons and sounds, nicely done!
Back to my youth: love it!
I sat in the actual show car back when the show was still on when they had a tour and I will tell you yours looks better than the show car.
+Stew thanks stew! Wish I would have gotten to do that back in the day
Wow, I am very, VERY impresed by the level of this replica. I remember watching Knight Rider as a kid and I was sucked in to that universum. It clearly is the best made Kitt car I have ever seen. To be honest I would get a slight heart attack if all of these screens and electronic counters would show real informations (oil temperature, gas level). Still, very impresive!
Get ready to have a heart attack because they do :) Thanks for the kind words and watching!
@@ChrisBlasiusWow, didn't expect that to be honest. This replica is priceless, and shouldn't leave your garage! :D
Oh you're bringing Great Memories Back Full Force ~ Awesome ☆☆☆☆☆
Really this car is out of this world.
I'm mesmerized. Lost for words. So amazing.
The in house music of the show AWESOME set up I need
That looks like a nice T100 you got there! I have a T120. Wouldn't mind doing a tail tidy like yours.
Chris your so lucky.. Kitt is my dream car!!
Thank you for your wonderful video today. It sounds good.
So cool this takes me back to my childhood! The 80's were great!! Knight rider, Airwolf, Streethawk, The A-team.
It was a good era right?
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen.
love this, but i can't help but chuckle every time I hear him say "budden"
In the pilot movie, KITT had seat belts. I saw them, when Michael did a test drive with Devon.
I'm writing from Germany, I just want to thank you for this video!
Great work, awesome car!
The only thing you don't have it William Daniels' voicing KITT.
Oh i do, it's also signed by William :)
Are all of the KITT voice recordings William Daniels? If so, where did they come from? I'm guessing that some of them may have been taken from the audio tracks of the TV show, but some of them are obviously not from the TV show.
Very good job Bro!
I was a big fan of Kitt...
Greetings from Switzerland 😊
So nice i pray the new owner loves and cares for it as much as you have! The best one on the planet 4 sure and you will always be able to call it yours, you may never drive it again but its still "your" Kitt. OKAY from a 60 roll up to bout 120 is it the "FatCat" or the GTS???✌🏾
Thanks man. From a dead stop, the viper takes it easy, from a roll, the hellcat is pretty freaking amazing! Thanks for watching!
Wow this is a mazing work for the car I’m just seat back and enjoy with the lighting systems, I already happy I don’t need to drive the cars
I was waiting for the Red Hood light. Awesome job but you definitely have to have that
Its there... check out my other video czcams.com/video/K2ZHqQEeQjA/video.html
You're a hero to us fans!!
OMG I would get so many speeding tickets if I was driving this car...especially playing with the turbo boost button lol.
