    It's time again for another build-off with Nick's Toy Garage! We have decided on American cars for this build, as we both so often feature European cars and we felt it would make a nice change! This Firebird was another eBay find and it has been well played with, lacking paint on all panels, cloudy windows, and scuffed wheels. The windscreen had a crack in it as well that I tried to polish to divert attention. This is also the first model that I've painted the body in black, something that I was a bit apprehensive about! There's a surprise in store for this build though...!

    Very nice custom there Jason it popped up and I never seen it so I thought I'd check it out and it's very nice and you could have made KITT of it you would have had to paint the bottom black or you could have made his enemy that they made for the show also which was called KARR

    Did you dig out your old original Nintendo to get that 8-bit Knight Rider soundtrack? I personally do the same chrome undercoat before adding amber and red lights....great results. This one looks great Jason, the gold base is a pleasant surprise to me. I love this set of GL wheels, I use them on 80’s sports cars and they are perfect. This is a smashing success by you.

    I would have kept purple or paint it pink. Just to do something different from the black and gold

    If you bought an actual brand new Pontiac Firebird back-in-the-day equipped with a 4 cylinder engine, you should be shot on the spot, end of story. Minimum acceptable type of engine for this sports car is a 6 cylinder, preferably with a super or turbo charger.
    On another note, great job on your model, Jason. Wheels are spot on!
