Mad Viking Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 This is the second one of these kits I've built. The first was for a friend but this one's mine. Tried to use a set of Keith Marks decals but it was way beyond my skills to get them to work so I used the kit decals with a couple of "6.6L" decals & "Trans Am" decal from the Keith Marks set. I wired the engine & scratch built a CB antenna from guitar string. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rider Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Looks nice, very nice paint, and the dash is very well done. Nice hat, and CB antenna. From the look of the great job of the kit decals it would appear you have the skills for the after market decals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disconovaman Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I picked up this kit with the intentions of building a pro touring car with white lighting paint and Renee's20bird decals but now that I see this build I'm thinking of a movie car replica. It looks like it builds up nicely. It's a fantastic job on a Iconic Pontiac muscle car. Heres a pic of my original plan for this trans-am.
