not sure what bord I should to post on but any way, I just wondering If anyone knows if someone makes DIECAST MODELS OF A THIRD GEN TRANS AM
If you have any info on this PLEASE POST OR PM ME.

 

i have 3 of them matchbox makes them. they are part of the dare collection. theres 2 diferent ones. il lget a pic up this week sometime.

 

There are also some 1/18?, ertl 1982 Z28 diecast models available in red, white, blue and pacecar. search the web they should be easy to find.

 

i have a few thirdgen camaros too.

 

Johnny Lightning, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, and a few others. I have a ton of die cast !!!

 

Sorry to correct you but it's Sunstar that makes those '82 Z28s,I have the 3 color ones.They also make 2 different patrol cars too.As for the diecast T/As,I have only seen a blue one hotwheels did a few years ago.There aren't any in 1/18th scale right now.The only good news that I know right now is that Johnny Lightning will be making a Firebird-T/A series like they did for the Camaro Collectors series a couple years ago.They did say that there are going to have a couple 3rdgens in each group during the series.Oops,forgot tosay that that series is coming out sometime next year,early I think.

 

Here are a few die-cast f-bodys... Most of them are first gen, but there is a very large number of third gens too.

8 Don't forget to look for the cheap ones too when collecting. I found this one at a local Longs drug store. I think it was like 59 cents or so.... Kind of cheasy, but it is a third gen.

91.... WOW !:hail: :hail: :hail: That is an insane collection.

 

Ive collected di-cast cars for years now. Mostly the bigger 1:18 scale cars. I saw the camaros, but not any TA's. Last week i went to a hobby shop that specializes in models and dicast. I had him try to track down some 3rd gen TA's...any car from 82-92, either plastic or dicast. He called me back a day or two later and said no dice. In fact, the only place ive found glue together models is on EBAY. And they get kinda of expensive sometimes. I really wonder why there were no di cast firebirds. I mean, the cars style went on for 10 years, that makes it pretty significant, plus they have a 3rd gen camaro... Hey, maybe if enough of us call ertl or mastio or some other di-cast companys, they will make one. I doubt it, but I would pay a good amount for one... Especailly a black 87 with camel interior

Thanks dude.Those were some older pictures of my collection.I ahve since gotten more and rearranged how they had been displayed,maybe I'll take some newer pics and show them the next time there's a diecast thread.

 

Thanks for the correction, nice avatar.

 

91ZMan....all I can say is WOW

 

Does that 30th annv. set come with a 92 in it? If so would you be willing to sell?

 

I can answer that, sorry no it just has a yellow IROC for the 3rdgen.That set sold for $40 at Walmart a few years ago.

 

Thanks 91... I found them a short while ago for sale on the internet... Do a search, I am sure you could find one. I need to do some sort of display with all of mine. Right now,they are just lined above my haalway (as the pictures show).

There are also 1/25 scale factory promo models for 82-92. They are still cheap. I have all years in all available colors.
