I agreed to review this particular kit for two reasons: first, I hadn’t built it before, and second (and most importantly) it reminded me of the ’79 Trans-Am my neighbors who I grew up with owned. They’ve both passed on, but I have fond memories of them, they were like step-parents to me. I decided then and there I would build this car in the same color scheme as theirs: silver with maroon interior.

For the Modeler: Even though this kit has been around a while it’s in pretty good shape for the intermediate to advanced modeler. There is one issue that must be addressed for a proper fit. There are drag and movie car optional parts. Strategic clamping of sub-assemblies is needed to insure a proper fit in some places and some instruction errors are highlighted in this review.
