Monogram made both a 91 and 92 Formula. I don't believe any other 3rd gen Fomulas were made. Check out the link in my sig to my F-body model page. It is by no means complete, just some of what is available that I have collected. Plus I need to update it too.

Ive been looking for a nice glue together model of a 3rd gen TA. Mostly, Ive been trying to track down a 3rd gen TA in di-cast. Ive seen 3rd gen camaros...with removable t-tops and all. But no birds. I put in a request at a hobby shop near me that can find rare stuff...so ill see what he comes up with. Ide be willing to lay down some cash for an 87ish dicast TA.

I'll rip it to the computer first though.

finding the 86'???
Well thats gonna be very hard to find unless you shop through ebay and all the models that are firebird/trans am based never came with those little rubber bumper thingies but if you are wanting to build a car in the same exact detail then you would be better off the find a 82' and 87' gta and inter-mix some parts and
add some molding to both ends of the car to form the little bumpers and there ya go!

more details
As you can see the bottom humps at the nose of the car were shaved off the accomendate the front end ground effects and I had a set of corvette rims to slap on at the last minute and I adjusted the frame to give the car that bandit look by dropping it down in front so looks very aggressive!...lol!

MarkB If you'll sell or trade that 10th Anniv. TA thats in the bottom of this pic.
I'll buy/trade for it in a heartbeat.
I've got several 1:64 scale and a 1:18 scale of it and would like that model as well. It would be great to display with my 1:1 scale real car at shows.
Thanks Bill
