Very nice 'Bird, great build! From the decals I can see that you built one of the latest re-releases of this Monogram kit. I still have an older edition which contained mainly the hood stripes but no interior and Trans Am decals. Definitely need to get my hands on one of those decal sheets to make a nice TA to sit next to my white/ blue 69 TA...

The whole car is awesome, but the gauges are a highlight for me. How did you get that level of detail? Was it decals, detailing kit, or just hours with a tiny brush? :)

There is one large decal for the engine-turned dash, and then separate decals for each gauge. I just kept adjusting them until they fit right and used a setting solution a couple of times. Turned out better than expected. I'm totally new to the hobby... built my last model 55 years ago, but I have noticed on the two I just built that the decal quality is much, much better, although I find it the hardest part to do.
