Does the current Revell Smokey And The Bandit '77 Pontiac Firebird's decal sheet have the front Georgia plate?  

Are the decals any good?  I seem to remember seeing the decals and the gold stripes and 'Firebird' were on a black background.  This seems kind of odd if the model is going to be painted black anyway.

Can someone post a picture of the kit's decals?

Found the image on Google and built it myself a long time ago, it comes with the front Georgia/Confederacy plate. No T/A decals though, could've sworn the the real car was a Trans Am D:

I'll have to get the Trans Am decals somewhere else.  I'm not sure how the gold stripes printed on black will look when it's painted black.  The black on the decals might not match the black paint.  Keith Marks has the gold Trans Am decals which should fit the Revell kit.  I believe they were designed for the MPC Blackbird kit.

I know at one point due to licensing the Trans-Am letters were on the decal sheet just spread around. You had to piece them together to make it say Trans-Am.

I'm more concerned with the gold stripes printed on black.  I can't see how the black won't show different on paint.

MPC used to do that, never saw that in a Revell or Monogram kit.

The decal sheet pictured has "6.6 Litre" lettering for the shaker...isn't that the designation for the Olds 403 engine?  The T/As with real Pontiac power should have "T/A 6.6"...
