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.

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

Great job on the bird. I have a soft spot for firebirds as I owned a brand new one in 87. Great color too.

Same here Mario...I'm on my 4th one. Used 87 Formula, new '79, used '99 and my current (forever) 2002 WS6/6-speed.
