Gold 78' trans Am

[Rob McKee]

Really nice job on the paint and interior work. I built a black 78 T/A a couple of weeks ago and now I am waiting for a 79 and 80 model T/A to come in the mail.

Keep up the good work.

I have a question for the people who have built this model. Did you guys put foil trim on the hood at the end to make it look like a full windshield trim?

[Nick Winter]

Andre, the 1:1 cars did not have a piece at the end of the hood.

Hey Nick .. I know the 1:1 car has no trim on the hood. but wiit some amt model the hood goes right up to the windshield. on my 74 amt gtx same thing when i finnished the model it looked like somthing was missing till i painted the trim on the hood. Any one else did this?

[Scalper]

Hello . It has been a while since I have posted or been at the bench. Its a nice day out should be able to spray some paint. She should be in the Under glss section tonight.

Wish me luck.

Thanks

Looks really good. you turned a lemon kit into a diamond... Nice job.

[jcbigpaw]

Very nice work going on here. I really like that gold but I gotta tell you I believe a trans am should be black. Lol

[slusher]

Really nice work on the T/A paint and color are really nice. if you try Bare Metal Foil, its lots easier to use...

[Scalper]
