Wait I missed that one? It was released in 2004 as well?

I just thought I would share this gem with everyone here. IIRC I bought this at Kranzel‘s hobbies in Pennsylvania. I vaguely remember the guy saying there’s a new magazine out you gotta get and pointed to it. It is in cherry shape. I have many, many others, but didn’t realize I had the very first issue. I found it while getting ready to move to a new location and packing my stuff.

Ugg. I hope so! Otherwise, then why did I do this?

Whoa. I missed this! Anyone have links to the test shots?

This is great! Looks like they have the “77/‘78 hood stripe in there too!

Thanks guys! This kit IMO is very underrated and was rewarding to build!

Great job Christian!

Those of you who have this kit, are the new Atlantis tires bigger than the originals from Revell? They always looked a little small to me.

Have we seen any indications on what is happening with the decals in this kit? I am really interested to see what options we have this time around.

That looks great! I too would be interested in the color code for the paint. I have been looking for this color since Testors stopped their custom lacquer series line.

Very nice!

Super nice build and pictures Chuck!

Oh, and where is the new Corvette?

Really excited to see the 79 Camaro kit back again, and with the z28 parts AND the stock flat hood. Very nice! Hopefully we get some new Z28 decals as well, maybe in new colors…. Like green? Will there be chrome parts or is that a thing of the past?

Need the body, hood and other trim for the below kit. Maybe other parts as well. Someone replaced the ZR1 parts with the 2006 kit. thanks

Thanks everyone!

Thanks! Fantastic job on yours as well! Thanks for sharing! I may or may not have used pictures of your as reference during my build. ??

This one was built pretty much straight from the kit, except for making it a bench seat in the back and adding wires and throttle linkages. The color is glacier blue metallic, which is correct. Overall it was a pretty fun build with no issues except the driver side tire rubs against the fender if you don’t adjust it.

Any word on the `79 Z/28?

Thanks for all of the kind words guys. I apologize for not having pictures of the back of the car. Here is one just before I pack it away.

I built this from the ‘86 Revell Monte Carlo kit and added Rays decals. The rear end has been updated to and ‘87, which took a little more effort than you would think to get perfect. The tires are from the 77Trans am MPC kit, which are smaller but still look a little too big, IMO. I took a step back on the detailing, as I had limited time to get this done.

Does anyone know of a source to get decals like the below? There are stripes the run up along the top edge of each front fender and door and then meet over the roof of the car:

is there anyone who makes a 77 to 78 Firebird ram air hood? I’m looking for a hood like the one below. I have been looking everywhere but can’t seem to find something like this. Thanks.

Same here… Really interested to hear what options we will have in this kit.
