RickRollerLT1 Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Revell/Monogram #2965 (glue version) fresh off 'da bench! Added Ram-air style scoop comes from a '98 Firebird Formula, adapted well to the '93 hood with some filling and such. Scratchbuilt Pro-charger setup using parts from a Revell Saleen Mustang Speedster. Wheels are from the Revell 'Vette Agin with the backs and tires off a Revell Ford F-150 Lightning. Exterior is a Metallic Maroon custom mixed using Tamiya Mica Blue and Clear Red, cleared with Pledge. The aim was to replicate Midnight Purple and the results turning out Maroon I was not happy with originally. But the Brown interior helps it go well and grew on me after a while.

ea0863 Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Richard, I think it came out great. I seem to remember your body color being very similar to one they offered on the Firebird of that era as well. Thank you for posting
espo Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Like the hood mods and the paint. The engine looks really well done.
happy grumpy Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Great job on the bird. I have a soft spot for firebirds as I owned a brand new one in 87. Great color too.
Mike 1017 Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 The Firebird looks Fantastic! I also like what you did with hood. Mike

Same here Mario...I'm on my 4th one. Used 87 Formula, new '79, used '99 and my current (forever) 2002 WS6/6-speed.
Slotto Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Wow! That's a busy engine bay. Great looking T/A
