Wish I had more Firebirds...

The only one I have is this DM. I built a lot of Trans Am kits including a 1:12 scale. All the rest are long gone.

Darn few available. DM did 2 Firebird 400s, one in Champagne and one in red.

The Champagne is gorgeous, but very hard to find. The red is probably fairly rare too, as most of the ones issued had bad rash. I received 4 or 5 of them, and each one was pretty bad. I didn't keep any.

(Pic) LCA Trans Am

This one was made by Johnny Lighting. A little BMF and some detailing this could fill a gap. With your modeling skills John I'm sure you could make it happen.
