See the Screen-Used Knight Rider FLAG Semi at Retro Con 2026!
When that pulse-pounding synth music starts building, you know something legendary is coming… We’re beyond excited to announce that the screen-used F.L.A.G. Mobile Unit from the classic TV series Knight Rider is rolling into Retro Con 2026, September 12th & 13th in Oaks, Pennsylvania!
This iconic piece of television history is being brought to the show by the Knight Rider Historians YouTube channel, who have been fully restoring the rig to its former glory for the past five years. Retro Con will mark the semi’s very first event appearance ANYWHERE! We couldn’t be more stoked to premiere it for fans to see this September!
The (F)oundation for (L)aw (A)nd (G)overnment semi is a rolling monument to peak 1980’s action TV, with its jet-black paintjob, gold striping, Knight Industries emblems, and of course… that epic extending rear ramp that allowed KITT to roll straight into (and out of) the trailer at highway speed! This is NOT a replica! This is one of only two cabs used during filming of the series, paired with the only trailer ever filmed for the show.
While the FLAG’s interior scenes were filmed on a studio set, the Knight Rider Historians are meticulously recreating that command center INSIDE the actual trailer! Using period-correct components whenever possible, they are carefully building the work station and briefing room. And this has been a community-powered mission! Hundreds of fans have contributed by helping track down rare parts for the semi, wrenching on the cab and trailer, and sending donations to bring this ambitious vision to life. This project is being built for fans, by fans. Keep watching their youtube channel as they put on the finishing touches!
Yes, the FLAG semi will be displayed on the SHOW FLOOR at Retro Con! We’d tell you exactly where, but trust us… you won’t miss it. Attendees will have the rare opportunity to take photos with, and even step inside, a genuine piece of television history. Don’t miss your chance to experience this legendary vehicle up close as we celebrate its long-awaited convention debut- only at Retro Con 2026!!
