Located in a special area under the front passenger seat, it housed some of Kato’s special crime-fighting tools. It also allowed Kato convenient access to some of The Black Beauty's more commonly used effects, such as the front and rear rockets.

Used in conjunction with the camera located on the scanner, this screen had several other capabilities, including television reception.

A multi-function panel that could track moving vehicles and/or monitor bugged locations. The oscilloscope was able to pick up various sound vibrations and frequencies. Its combination of features proved handy for a variety of purposes: a loud speaker... police band monitor... directional finder... scanner tracker... or a signal jammer.

The main control center where all of the weapons could be accessed and controlled by The Green Hornet. The pull-out panel is located in a special partition behind the driver's seat.

Standard early design mobile unit for making and receiving telephone calls. A VERY big deal in the 1960s!

Houses the controls and effects for access by the Green Hornet.

Not often seen on screen. Pockets are located in the "C" pillars to hold gas guns and other crime fighting equipment.

Not seen on screen. Possibly created for future effects.

In one episode, the smoke screen was utilized to prevent aircraft from taking off. In another, “Eat Drink and Be Dead”, it became a tool of deception for making The Black Beauty appear disabled. However, the effect was likely devised to provide cover for our heroes when making an escape.

 
Also, in the TV series, The Black Beauty was able to run in "silent" (stealth) mode.

(Not seen in the TV series) A retracting "gun" comes from the center of the rear bumper. Based on the nozzle, it appears to have been capable of providing several types of effects…but probably best suited for creating a rear oil slick. Electrically controlled.

(Not seen in the TV series) Dropping down behind the rear wheels, two whisk brooms could brush up any tracks the tires might have made. Electrically controlled.

By alternating between various license plates, this presumably would have aided in "disguising" The Black Beauty and hinder tracking.
