A car I liked quite a bit when new. We ended up with a 4 cylinder Jeep Wrangler that my wife fell in love with.

Not sure of a color yet. Something light and bright with a light interior.

Windshield and roof are one big clear piece. I like the interior engineering on this one. The chassis is also nice. Not sure about the chrome water pump though. What were they thinking?

Light detailing and smooth paint are on tap. Just a car I always liked. Understated, yet still quick.

I had a '95 Camaro Z28 Convertible a few years ago. Excellent car, very similar to the Firebird Formula. Still miss that car.

Looking forward to seeing where you go with this.

I do love a 4th gen 'Bird, especially ones prior to the '98 refresh.

I never built this particular kit, but it looks like a winner. AMT was cranking out some good stuff in the mid-90s.

Progress made on the chassis and motor. I've decided on Stoplight Red Metallic in the little Testors bottle. Tan interior should complement it. The paint for the chassis has an undercoating effect. This paint has been discontinued (of course). It has a great finish that looks like scale undercoating . I'm gonna miss it like Testors buffing Metalizers.
