Car#1 is a KITT (yes, Two Thousand…not a Mustang) replica:
Car #2 is a Bandit II from 1991, which was an aftermarket special:

Yep, this was signed by the Hoff himself. Maybe that justifies the price?
Car #2: Sadly, this Bandit II doesn’t have a screaming chicken on the hood, as many did. Still, it has the faux scoop and a couple extra mini-chickens.
