FAQ
What chassis does PRM153530 suit? The Firebird Trans Am is designed for 1/10 touring cars configured for Vintage Trans-Am racing, with a 260mm wheelbase, approximately 198mm front width and 207mm rear width. OZRC recommends checking chassis dimensions and current local VTA rules before trimming the body.
Why are two front nose cones included? The separate nose is positioned in an area that can receive frequent contact during racing, so PROTOform includes a second nose cone as a replacement spare.
Is the Firebird body painted and ready to fit? No. PRM153530 is supplied clear and unpainted. Trimming, painting, nose installation and body-mount preparation are required before use.
Does the body include decals and window masks? Yes. The package includes an extensive decal sheet, window masks and exterior paint-then-peel overspray film.
