      Ok, I don't know if this will be helpful at all, but I will tell you this: I've never been on the NBC/Universal payroll, but I did work for most of the major studios, was on the contractor access list, and had free roam of the studio whenever I was there. I can verify that there was indeed a KITT firebird on the lot, and it was almost always parked either in Transportation (the first lot you were in), or out on the Tour (where the Jurassic Park and FatF vehicles are).
      I'm a little fuzzy on this part, but if I remember right, the Paint Shop

    I got a lead for you. There is a Car Museum in Gatlinburg TN that I have seen a screen used KITT. It was the car used when KITT drove by himself because you could see the steering wheel in the back seat and a camera monitor so the driver could see. Hope this helps!

    I'm 49 now, but when knight rider was a current TV show we visited universal on a holiday from the U.K and they had one of those cars for people to sit in and it would talk to you. I have a picture here somewhere of me in it that my dad took, it was such a shiny black car you can see my dads reflection in the paint as he took the picture. I wonder if that's the car people are talking about possibly being in storage, maybe it would make more sense as to why it possibly survived ?

The question that I have, is that if someone has the car and their moving it around and hiding it, that there is already someone that has claim to it and might have plans to take it out of there.

    Someone owns it now, there's another dude on youtube who does Knight Rider content, if you're on about the stunt car that was a space frame with the Trans Am fibreglass shell as if I'm correct that's the only surving K.I.T.T along with another that someones using as a daily I'm guessing as they had it on their driveway I think I remember them fixing or replacing the lights that are sunk into the bumper, I went down a rabbit hole at one point to do with Knight Rider and also whether someone does a K.I.T.T kit that also has Turbo Persuit mode for the Trans Am and through me searching that I just ended up getting suggestions on related videos and I watched someone, I think there was suggestions of another one that was also used as K.A.R.R. too as they went down a whole video of them searching for the different types of paint on the body work, maybe have a look on the Vinwiki videos wouldn't be surprised if it's someone connected to them, I'll try have a look if I can find the videos still, I think also one that people were confused with for a bit was a RC stunt car they also used but due to the part being so short people didn't realise it was a RC car with a RC Knight Industry Lorrie

    I remember going to Universal Hollywood and they had a KITT you could sit inside and talk to it. They had someone on the other end talking to people inside it. If you asked a hard question or something they didn't know, they would say "I'm sorry, I can't answer that." It was the coolest thing. I grew up with KITT and had a Kitt with a Michael action figure and you could pull the license plate and hear pre-recorded sounds of KITT talking. I miss Knight Rider. Thanks for the memories.

      haha yea, it was right next to a giant shark hanging upside down! The KITT car was placed on a jetty or something over water, so the wheels were hovering over water, while the driver and passenger door areas were over a walk way that was effectively "where KITT was balanced". Great memories.
      The last time I saw KITT on the studio lot, after that attraction went away, was on the side of the road where the studio tram would travel, as it did the lower lot tour. If memory serves me well, it's an area that was staged with Jurassic Park type of props as the tram rolls by, where you can see various parts of Jurassic Park being over run by raptors or something...like set dressing type of materials....the cars parked along that road were random. From Jurassic Park vehicles, old police cars, old TV show cars, and at one time...KITT.

    At 4min 27sec that music is from a 'Kitt being rebuilt' episode Im sure it's when kitt sinks in acid and gets rebuilt. When bonnie and the techs are doing some final touches to kit...dam I'm a nerd 😂😂😂. I also remember putting my cold feet as a kid on my commodore 64 power pack in a drafty south London victoria house😂... Don't know why that popped in my head🎉

    This feels like a substantial Knight Rider Historians collaboration. Can you share the details of how it came about? Because Joe just recently said rumors of another at the studio were unfounded. I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to know the back (lot) story of what transpired between then and now. Really want it to be true!

      Joe may have been saying that based on the outcome of this visit that I made, but we're not ruling it out quite yet. That car is _somewhere_

    I really hope you manage to find that KITT and I think you're right, if it was left in a Universal Studios parking lot, it would weather and degrade, just like the original Ecto 1 and Ecto 1A from Ghostbusters 1 & 2. I know they restored the original and there were plans to do the 2nd movie car aswell, but so far as I know, it hasn't happened yet. These awesome TV and movie memorabilia pieces will not survive, if they are not in the hands of the fans. That has already been proven so many times, so all power to you man, I sincerely hope you get your hands on one!

LOL I actually went on to own my now Pontiac Dealership and of course, drove a Trans Am albeit new body style.

    Did it ever occur to you to just ask the head of facilities maintenance which buildings had basements, and check out those buildings? Buildings get repurposed there over the decades, and an old SFX builing with a basement in the 1980's might be the accounting building in 2023.
