The American Cars collection by Ixo/DeAgostini adds this 1969 T-A, after having already done a '69 Formula 400. This is No. 111 in the series and superior to the earlier diecasts by Road Champs and Road Signature (YatMing).

For comparison, here is the RC:

This joins the other Trans Ams in my collection.

That IXO is killer! Most of the ones I own are racing liveried models but all are done very well for their price point. 

GREAT collection Harv!!

@jack-dodds I don't have this 69 Trans Am in 1/43 scale but I do have the DM in 1/24 scale. This model looks great Harv.

Harv, all your T/As look really great, especially your new one.  😎 😎    That RC '69 is a very nice toy, nothing more.   

I had a new '84; I think many today have either forgotten or don't realize just how popular, influential, and "futuristic"  3-Gen Firebirds were when they debuted in 1982.
