FordRodnKustom Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 X-El, part of the Seville/JoHan era in the late 1970's,Ā made a promo of The Lively Set Turbine car. I regret not getting one at the time.That's right! I forgot about that one. Wish I got one too. Thanks for the reminder.
Greg Myers Posted July 14, 2016 Author Posted July 14, 2016 The real car in the picture above is not the Porter, is it? It doesn't lookĀ quite right to me.

Edsel-Dan Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 AND another I have and Forgot, the Route 66 Vette!!!Ā I also have a 64 Impala "American Dreams" kit(Or is that a 55/56 T-Bird!!!)I need to check, but.......Ā They Did use Too Modern of 60's car kits in that series as American Dreams pieces though!!Like the Bullitt Mustang in a Different color!! (Don't remember though)Ā For the Most part, Any issue of the AMY 57 T-Bird can be built as the Vegas carSome even still had the "TANNA" License plate!!
