I don't know of anyone selling just the parts themselves, but there are a couple of 3D files available if you know of someone that can print them for you.  First there is a complete kit available to buy from the Gambody website that is in 1/32nd and 1/16th scale and has the option to add lighting to it:

Next, there are some parts to convert a Firebird model to the Kitt car on the Fab365 website.  It says these parts are free to download, and also has a link to a Firebird body to also download.  You might be able to scale these to 1/16th scale and try to fit them to the kit you have:

These are just 2 options I found doing a quick Google search.  If you don't have someone that can 3D print the parts for you, there are some online places that will print them for you, or you can post on here to see if someone can help you.

The Gambody kit is excellent. But you'll need to play around with the scaling to make it fit the MPC kit.

With a bit of work, it shouldn't be too challenging to make it fit.

Thanks Steve and Dan.  I hadn't seen the files on fab365 but I did come across the complete kit on Gambody.  I contacted Gambody a couple of days ago and asked if the designer would be willing to sell me the files for the front bumper and the interior KITT parts.  I haven't heard back yet.

Have you downloaded the Gambody kit?  You mentioned I would need to play around with the scaling to make it fit the MPC kit.
