1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 - Verdoro Green (Lane Exact Detail) 1/18
Product Details Temp out of stock
Designed in less than six months, the Firebird name was borrowed from a series of experimental gas turbine cars built by GM in the 1950's and 60's. The 1968 model Firebirds were marketed as a line of cars - five "packages" of various engines and options. The top of the line Firebird for 1968 was the Ram Air 400, as replicated here. Special features included heavy-duty engine components, functional hood scoops and air cleaner.

The Pontiac Firebird and its twin, the Chevrolet Camaro, shared a platform from 1967 onward but developed distinct personalities. The Trans Am variant, introduced in 1969, became the definitive performance Firebird. The 1977–1981 'Bandit' Trans Am — immortalized by Burt Reynolds in Smokey and the Bandit — became a cultural phenomenon, with the black-and-gold Special Edition among the most recognizable American cars of the era.
This 1/18 scale replica of the 1968 Pontiac Firebird in Green is produced by Lane Exact Detail to collector-grade specifications. At 1/18 scale — the most popular collector scale — the model measures approximately 10 inches in length and displays beautifully on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. Every detail — from paint finish to badging — is reproduced from measurements taken from the original vehicle.
