Airwolf helicopter miniature on display...

In the 80's the vehicles were often the stars of some television shows, be it the talking car, KITT, in Knight Rider, the motorcycle in Street Hawk or in Airwolf's case the high-tech military helicopter.

The TV show ran from 1984 to 1987 for four seasons (although the final season was totally recast) and starred Jan-Michael Vincent and Ernest Borgnine undertaking various covert missions in the titular helicopter to an 80's synthesizer soundtrack.
