Default Just finished Trans Am model, turned out good.

It was one of the Revell Detroit Muscle Series. I thought TA models were discontinued but I found one recently, it wasn't very accurate at all. Turned out decent, I had been looking for one for a long time. Off and on took me about 3 weeks.

Cool. I stiil got mine in the box. I'm actually thinkin about gettin a can made of real NBM paint to match my car & since I'm planning on ZO6 wheel, I was thinkin about gettin a vette model too just to swipe the wheels from. Also got a few ideas for madin some stuff that resembles SFC & better lookin exhaust. Usually if ya got a couple models sittin around you can make some cool extra parts.

Is this the same model kit you built?

I bought this one a few weeks ago, but I haven't started it yet. I'll post pics when I finish mine; one of these years lol. Nice job on yours BTW!
