but, does anyone make a 78-81 die cast camaro? I would be interested in picking one up for the dorm room, I already have a plastic (monogram I believe) one I built and dolled up like the yellow banana

K-dawg:Man I'm sorry I've been trying to thing of one but I don't think anyone has made one yet except the 1/64 stuff and a few plastic kits.Maybe someday.I have always thought that real camaros have round tail lights but I'm starting to like the 81's

yeah i think the early 2nd gens and the late 2nd gens are the nicest looking, mostly wanted something nice to remind me of the car, and to show the chicks http://www.nastyz28.com/ubb/wink.gif

I found a GREAT 1978-1981 three in one model set that you could make look like any style of camaro from 78-81. It has two different hoods (one for 78,79 the other for 80,81) and all sorts of different stripes for it. I believe it a Monogram set and if i'm not mistaken, cost around $29.99

Tell you what, check my profile and email me your address. I have a die cast 78/79 Z28 that is about 4 times the size of a hot wheel made by tootsietoy, you can have it, it's in real good shape. By the way, did I mention it's banana yellow??
