I think they STILL MAKE EM !!!

I was at Michael's Craft store a few min ago buying some art supplies for school ; I walked past a rack with a bunch of Car models on it . They were not real new models , like a 94 firebird formula , 96 Z28 . An old corvette and a few others . It was wierd something told me , look for a 3rd gen camaro. I almost $h* my pants when I found an " 83 red Z28 !!!!!!! AMT ERTL I ONLY paid $7.00 for it !!!!! I looked on the box for a date on it and I found 2002 . So they must be making this model again in limited quantities . The model number is 31805 .... www.rcertl.com

I decided to post this because I remember there was some talk in the past about wanting these models ..... Im not totally sure that the number I posted above is the model number , if it does not turn up anything , you might even want to contact AMT ERTL if you really want a 3rd gen camaro model . I know another manufactorer made a 3rd gen firebird .

I see the 1/24 and even 1/18 80's camaro on ebay all the time.

EDIT, As a side note, I have a Ghostbusters."echto 1' and a certain delorian still in boxes.

The Delorian I am somewhat working on, but it's hard to find good pics of the engine compartment to get it accurate.
