I wouldn't do it to my car but it took a lot of work and it's still a clean looking car. It's not riced out and he's a fan of the original series. I personally think it's "cool" in it's own way. To each his own.
+1 .... couldnt have said it better myself

******' haters


If you aren't in to what the guy is doing, that's one thing, but to straight up disrespect and belittle someone for having the nuts to do something different? This car looks a hell of a lot better than that bi-planed pile of tacked on crap KR in the latest flick.

The bird's eye view gives a good look at the length added to the front. I think that angle is awesome in particular. This car would look hellacious sprayed black with the wheels to set it off.


As with most projects, I'm sure there's much more to come. I think the "Hoff" would be proud.

**** the hater bitches, man. They're worthless to LS1Tech and have never attempted such a project that you are undertaking. It's not my style at all, but I appreciate the time, dedication, and craftsmanship you put into the project. Keep doing what drives you and have fun with your car.

Not really what I'd do. I'd rather put my money into "go fast" parts. But, you've done a nice job and it really does look nice. Props to you, for having an original idea and creating it how you wanted to.

I agree. Have you thought about doin that? You took the time to make alot of other stuff look correct and in place. Would you consider painting the car black to math the Kitt's.

AND get us a vid of the car racing past the camera with the light goin at night!!!
I think that will look awesome. GJ

Definately needs to be black with some badass black wheels.

I actually think it's cool as hell, not that I'd do it to my own, but I'd drive it for sure. Just not feeling the redness. I'd be interested in seeing some nice interior shots. The camera + flashlight is leaving alot to be desired.

I actually really like the opening on the front bumper, it kind of reminds me of the ZO6's and Camaro concepts....

Definitely not as awesome as someone who sits back and criticizes someone they have never met, through a computer....

you should just hand him the knife now so he can end it.....

Thank you all so much. Your words mean very much to me.

And yes, it is destined to be black, however, until I can secure a booth, I was trying to capitalize on the horrible made for television movie 'Knight Rider 2000', in which Kitt was transferred into a red FWD based loosely on the 1988 Pontiac Banshee. The Banshee, in my opinion, would be THE car of cars to have. It was the first fourth gen car.

You are the man.
I am thinking about doing the same thing to my 99 formula. So far all I got is the scanner light and the speakers under the hood. I also have a makeshift voice box. I think you are doing great and I commend you on it. Can we buy reproductions of the stuff you put in your car. Let me know.
