Excellent build. Trans am doesn't get enough attention from us modelers. Lots of cool Mustangs, Camaros, Firebirds, Javelins, Challengers and Barracudas competed over the years. |

Thank you.
The original Trans-Am series is one of my favorites. I've done an AAR Cuda and have a '64 Falcon project 90% complete. I hope to do a few more T/A projects in the future. |
