After watching e-bay etc. I finally found,in stock,in Hong Kong,a 1985 T/A model,now I just need to source some correct colour decals and the right spoiler to build a match for my real car.

That my friend is pretty cool.

This site has a ton of OEM color matches for model builders.

They should have something close to what you are looking for. Otherwise, I'd check auto parts stores and see if Duplicolor made a touch up paint for it.

I've been looking for years for something like that,can you post the site where you got it.

I found it on e-bay,many model sites list it only to be out of stock when you want to order it.

According to the seller he has at least one more currently listed-

Did you buy one??if so what was the final cost for international shipping,etc,etc,

I bought one a week and a half ago,from that seller,it arrived today.

Cost almost $40 with shipping,well worth it to me.

............It says '85 but the pic on the box shows a wrap-around wing, If im correct the wrap-around didn't come out till '86.....I wonder if it has the streight wing included.....

Thanks,not a bad price,I was just reading all that International shipping BS,It almost makes you afraid to order.

It only has the wrap wing,but it isn't mounted,I'll cut it down or find another somewhere,it also is a body/interior/chassis only kit,hood does not open but it's the closest thing I could find to my car to build a shelf replica.

It was optional in 85,became standard in 86.

Thats about what mine cost,funny,I was at an old friends house,doing a snowmobile deal and I mentioned I found that kit,I said I needed some rallye II wheels for it to make it like mine.

Turns out,he never stopped building models,he pulled out his wheel box and dug up 4 1/24 or 1/25 rallye wheels for me.

Here is a pic of a couple I did awhile back. The red one is like my car and the black one is a convertible I made from another t-top model like my car's. I made another vert in white to match a friends, but the black looks much better. (sorry, pic sucks)

I think I took a spoiler from another kit for the base model spoiler, but it's been so long I can't remember which. It may have been from another Bird model, a Fiero model or a Mach I, they are similar and also some 70's Cudas had a flat spoiler too. They made a 1991-2 T/A model and a few from other year Birds, so keep your eyes open.

Just doing a quick look for a Camaro and I found an 85 and 91 'Bird if this is of any help to anyone. I'm not a model builder but just thought I'd see what was out there. I hope this helps somebody.
