I was thinking of camera options. Maby for future updates!

The camera will be pure for show since I will only drive the car within viewable range...lol.
 
Actually, the amount of work isnt 'that bad'. My biggest pain in the ass is lying under the dashboard half of the time. Brutal to my back man!

I live in the netherlands, so we have tiny garages! Here are 2 views of my garage where I have build KITT replicas :)

Very soon. Last part is hooking up the last wires to the motors / calibrating and then it should be ready.

I Triple check every little thing, but still nervous, hehe. First tests i will do is with me behind the wheel before
we start filming our christine scene.

I am very proud of my control box. Looks good and is very functional. All the parts are replaceable and you can use
any receiver / transmission combo. These whould be cool units to sell. Not just for driving cars, lol. But from robots
to everything that you want to remotely control with 2.4ghz controler and 12v outputs.
 
The last preview clip of all the clips combined. Doing the final calibrations, and then we can have some fun!

 
very kewl Blade. I can't even begin to imagine the work.... let alone the ingenuity that you have put into this project... It appears to work extremely well...I am impressed....
 
Thanks Rruuf :)

My main priority was the 'stock' look. Nothing visuable and still useable for a every day car
 
Awesome video! Quite weird watching the first video and seeing the steering wheel go all by itself! Very, very cool Blade! Looks like a lot of fun!
 
Thanks. I received some interesting 'custom' projects from the states that are interested in using 'different' muscle cars.
(Not allowed yet to say alot about it)

But in meantime...I am perfecting the controls of the vette. If some university guys can buid a full scale remote hummer with HUGE
actuators on the seat, then I can pull this of without huge actuators......or a phd, LOL!

Most actuators will be replaced for Air cylinders for better 'extreem' control. So garantueed you will see more of me online :)
