Vehicle Description
To Be Auctioned Off No-Reserve Beginning on Sept. 19th. Estimate
$35,000 - $40,000. This is Super Pursuit Mode KITT #3 of only 3
built. Built by Jay Orberg through Barris Kustoms, who was hired to
build the Super Pursuit Mode KITT's for the Knight Rider TV series.
Car #1 and #2 were screen used. Car # 1 was the special effects
car. It was the one that was filmed making the transformation from
the Standard Mode KITT to the Super Pursuit Mode KITT. The
mechanics required to make this transformation took up so much
space that the cars internal components were stripped. It did not
have an engine or interior and did not run or drive. Car #2 was
equipped with all the Super Pursuit Mode body modifications, but
these modifications were stationary. The production company would
film Car #1 transforming and then Car #2 would do all the driving
scenes. This Jay Ohrberg car #3 is identical to the screen used Car
#2 but was never used in production. Besides the stationary Super
Pursuit Mode body modifications it does feature functional flaps on
the rear quarters that would fold away from the car for "extra
braking power". The nose features the pulsating red light and the
interior equipped with the famous KITT dash and steering wheel.
Electronics can be added to further enhance the car. It is a very
rare car, besides the 3 Orberg built cars, there are no known full
version SPM KITT's in existence. It's believed neither Car #1 or
Car #2 exist today. If you are a fan of the Super Pursuit Mode car,
this IS IT! Auctioned off to the highest on-line bidder beginning
September 19th For more info on the auction visit
