Has anyone tried kitbashing this kit with the 1/24 Monogram '85 Trans Am, '91 Firebird, or similar to get a more detailed chassis and engine? The '91 is about to be reissued soon, too.

Ahhh. Its like the 80's all over again. Everytime I see one of these kits I smell the hobby store I went to when I was a kid.

That's not a bad idea Casey. I already had my 85 and 91 assembled before I got the Camaro kit so i didn't have a chance to test.

Ahh the first glue kit I ever soloed. In my 9 year old mind Testors Gloss Yellow was a perfect match for that Gold. Yikes! Snagged one off eBay for $6 last year to give that another whack as an adult.

I loved that '85 TA kit. Long gone, but I painted mine a met. maroon color. Came out real nice. I love the fact that whoever built the box art model fudge up the decals along the bottom and tried to fix them with gold paint!
