At long last, I finished '79 Trans Am.(Monogram 1/24)
progress is here. (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t91066.html)
(Chris & Alex, I used brake fluid as for stripping old interior paints.)
repainted solid black and dark red for interior.
changed rims with little effective paint. exhaust pipes/tips and side markers are all self made.
buried metal pin as key cylinders on doors.
applied sun shade paint on windshield (it's my ordinary tip).
engine of this kit looks awful. please forget about it.:p

Classic screamin' chicken. Most worthy of being driven by Burt Reynolds and Sally Field. ;)

Brilliant restoration Osamu.
I already liked it in wine red but as a fan of black Trans Ams I think it is much more beautiful now.
Impressive shinny finish.

:eek: Great work!
When I first came here to AF I didn't really like American muscle cars, but seeing work like yours makes me start appreciating their design and beauty :licker:
