I always like when the spares box comes in handy to use on a kit you're currently building, whether it's to do something completely different with it or to replace any missing parts.

Very cool Doug, nice build.

Excellent tribute build Doug! That was some good kit bashing and improvisation involved there! She came out sharp!

kool

I've seen many attempts at kit bashing and most do not look right. I have to say the body looks great and the body lines look super. Can't wait to see it done !

Awesome 😎, beautiful build Doug, I love it

Really cool conversion 👍😎Doug 👍. I look forward to the rest of the build👍😃. Thanks for showing, happy new year and best wishes from jolly old England 👍😎Pete 🤓

Cool build Doug! Love your custom touches 😎👍

I'm Impressed I know what it takes to mix & match parts building what you've envision "Nice!" thx Doug

Awesome tribute build! I'm a big TD fan as well, so i have to save this video. It could be a future build! Thank you so much 😎👍

I'm almost sure that Doug has built up this kit in the past

Nice build. I like the front suspension you used, do you remember what kit you got it from.

Think I could paint the chrome parts if I was to lay down some primer first?

Great looking build, I’ve built the same kit and it was a lot of fun to do.

Hey man, you did a really neat job on this! I love this kit. Does anyone remember in the 80s they had two versions-one molded in blue with the white stripes and one molded in red with black stripes.

I always liked the Lindberg kits along with the Hawk rubber band powered cars.

Just bought this model hope it turns out like yours

Looks great!!!!

Very cool Doug looks fantastic

Awesome street machine Doug , love what u did with the bed cover 👍

Nice build. From what kit came the conventional front suspension? I'm trying to replicate the 1980 C10 that I had back in the 80s.

Nice clean build. Nice trips to the “parts box” on this one. Thanks for sharing.

I had this!

polar lights messed up on the kit the mach 5 has the engine is in the front not in the rear and speeds little brother and the chimp would hide in the trunk

Very good vidio answering some of the questions that arise during the build. Thank You!

Wow i remember several variations of this model, it was Billy Carter redneck power truck, athe coors custum hauler and sneaky pete,etc!!!

kool kit....reminds me of the mpc 4x4 version

As a kid, I spent my hard-earned lawn mowing money on this kit because it looked cool. I felt so cheated when I found it had no motor and detail whatsoever. I think I still have it. For some reason it wasn’t burned in the backyard…lol

Very cool thanks for sharing 🙂

Very nicely done Doug! She sure is a head turner!

Awesome!! Very cool kit!

Didn't this truck come in a power boat combo with trailer?

That's a Kool truck I remember building it when I was a kid

This kit goes together amazing! I had issues with the decals, the setting solution caused them to disappear after I put them on! Revell sent me a new set as replacements!

I don’t mean to criticize, you did a nice job, but I’ve driven these very trucks for many years, but the cab release handles go the other way. I don’t know what the instructions say, but you put them on upside down. They pull from the bottom.

I hope they bring all. Of them back some day I want them

Tom Daniel the master of turning every day plain Comercial vehicles into wild out funky rides.... back in the day ( the 70s ) I'd grab one every time I saw one sitting on the shelf of the greatest hobby store in the world (well ok in my city anyway) " 606 " ✌️😉 The build is bitchin' farout groovy all of those cool words from back in the day.... well done ! Thank you for the video and help stirring up some old sweet memories and also have a very Merry Christmas everyone.... hope you find a model under the tree ✌️😎 🎁 🎄 ⛄️

I really like what you've done here. Beautiful work as always!

You did an awesome job Doug!... I still have one in the stash!.. Merry Christmas 🎄 and happy New Year!

I had that one as a kid Only One of my childhood models survived, it sit's on the Top Shelf - An Old Survivor As a kid, I wasn't allowed spray paints, I got Testers Paint with a Paint Brush You Can Not Get A Good Paint Job With A Brush Times have changed - I have quite a few Airbrush Guns and all kinds of spray paints thx Doug

The genius of Mr. Tom Daniel....great kits of the '70's....still tho , lol...the janitor drives a cadillac....Rock onnn Doug , another great review RJ

Rather groovy , Grace Slick

Holy shot ! That audio !!!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I'd love to build this kit but I have not been able to find it and if I do it's overpriced.

I guess Revell didn't want to pay for the use of the Trans Am name

製作お疲れさまです。ちなみに、私もこのプラモデルを作ったことがあるんですが、あまりにも大きくて、収納に困るので、機首部分と主翼部分を分解可能にしました。まぁ、私の作ったプラモデルで、最大だと思います。

I just had to scrap this kit because the body was warped. It's a lovely kit, but the stripe decals were very tricky and I left off many of them. But it was a model I had wanted in my collection since childhood, and I'd gladly build it again.

Revell U.S.A and MPC (Round2Models) had reissued the big 1/16 scale version of this kit about a year to two years ago;the kit is still available but it is not cheap,retailing for close to $50 depending on where the kit was bought from and if the kit is still in stock.The kit was only a limited production run;and has by now been discontinued but can still be found in most retail hobby shops & on most E-commerce websites,like Amazon and Model Roundup.The 1/16 scale Revell USA version is the 1987 Pontiac Firebird GTA;while the 1/16 scale MPC (Round2Models) version,is the 1979 Pontiac Firebird.

Beautiful ‘77 Trans Am Doug! I have this one to be built! Very detailed engine and interior and that body looks great!
