Decal set is very good and includes gold striping, Trans Am callouts and 5.0 Liter FI callouts. There is also a large gold hood bird and two small sail panel bird decals. An Illinois liscense plate is also provided. Chrome pieces include the TPI runners, plenum, valve covers and four stock rims. Interestingly the box states that gold colored plated parts are included however upon inspection of the kit you find that only standard chrome pieces are included and you must paint the pieces gold. This kit features more detail than the average 1/24 scale kit. Copyright date is 1984.
