Default one step past the sketch

hello all,

after chatting with members,vendors, ect: about parts, what works and what doesn't , i do think that the next step is the sketches and putting my plan onto paper (and for the members whom did offer guidance and answer my outlandish and "stupid" questions i say thank you and there will come a day where your bar tab will be covered )

now as i start to consider both builders and artists i happened to look up from my computer in my office and there staring me in the face was a die-cast of a car that once was in my possession (among others) and it hit me like a two-ton heavy thing......

has anybody here ever done a die-cast of their exact car in a 1/18th scale ???

i ask cause it would be something that i would love to have done understanding that like most things in our chosen hobby its not going to be cheap but cool to have. - so i plead once again for guidance looking for a company or person whom has the skill, time and desire to do a such thing for me. (or has a friend of a friend kinda thing)

like most i am aware that GMP is doing a handful of pro-touring diecast and i have a couple of them scattered between the game room/media room and the garage but at the moment they are not offering a 1969 trans am (stock or p/t that i can buy)

hoping to make things easier for whomever might consider the undertaking i do have 2 of the yat ming 1969 black trans am's that i would be willing to donate to the project and i also have 2 sets of the GMP 10 Spoke Kenesis Wheel/Tire Set that could be used considering i dont ever expect to see my exact rim and tire package to be scaled down

anyway ...now that i have take 5 min of your life that you will not get back (sorry) thanks for reading and if anybody has any ideas ....i am all ears

note: i did post this on a couple die-cast pages relating to a custom diorama i am having done to match my current garage..... but i have yet to get any replies besides the one ..."are you out of your mind ... you know how expensive that would be ?? ( well yea i do ... but that is not the point kinda thing)
