Pontiac Firebird (1982)
for sale
Price: US $15,000.00
Price: US $15,000.00
Up for listing is my 1982 Pontiac Trans Am that has been converted to an external replica of the Knight Rider car K.A.R.R. This is the same exact model for both KITT and KARR on the Tv show. Many are selling replicas from a later Trans Am model, but they will never be authentic!
I originally purchased this car in 2013 right here on Ebay for $6, 000 and began work on it. It was originally black/gold. I have kept records of most receipts for work/parts. I have decided to put it up for sale since the cost to finish the interior conversion is beyond what I can reasonably afford over the next few years.
There are many cosmetic and mechanical differences between the 82 model and even the other early 3rd gens (83, 84)
The most major additions/upgrades and conversion parts for this vehicle are below:
1. original
turbocast wheels and bowling ball hupcaps

22. I have lots of additional parts-

in very good shape, extra center console, the
KR gullwing steering wheel
that I haven't installed yet ($450), and a bunch of additional odds and ends that you will need.
23. Foglights (4 total) installed as shown on photos but not wired (I was going to have this done when I had the Knight Rider Dash installed)
24. New Side Molding (replaced during paint job)
25. Completely
reupholstered original Front and Rear PMD seats in Sandstone Velour
(same material used for the sail covers and for the headliner and also present on the door panels)
Assuming you are buying this car to complete the conversion, there is no further restoration needed for the interior, all cracked/broken original parts were replaced- The cracks on the dash cover will be irrelevant when a Knight Rider Dash is put on. There is no heat in the vehicle, but otherwise is runs great. The HP for the vehicle as is, is 190 solid with the current engine set up which includes headers and an edelbrook carb.
