Ace-Garageguy Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) This old movie has finally made it to youtube in its entirety. Besides some very very nice period hot-rods, the experimental Chrysler Turbine Car is featured prominently. Worth a watch before the copyright police strike. Just look up "The Lively Set 1964" on YT. All kinds of technical errors in the dialog, but kinda fun anyway. Edited November 15, 2013 by Ace-Garageguy
Edsel-Dan Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 What is the Resolution like??? WinX answered for me 720x480. Worth a download!!! Always wanted to build that White Turbine!!!!
Modlguy Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 The famous drag race from the beginning of the movie. Both cars survive today.
michaelbaskett Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 One of my favorite movies.... Pamela Tiffin, James Darren, Pamela Tiffin, Doug McClure, Pamela Tiffin... Oh, and a bunch of neat cars too....
Misha Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 What a treat to see this movie again! The first time I was in elementary school up in the middle of the Canadain Prairies, dreaming of what it would be like to live in California. This has been my favorite, even better than the Muscle/Beach Blanket Bingo series. Great vintage drag scenes. Now if we could even get the old curbsides it would be fun to build the Owens car. Thanx for the link Cheers Misha

Edsel-Dan Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I have enough Unbuilt Glue Turbine kits, I have always planned to build the Race car out of one of them!! Still have to paint everything Except the Outside of the body Turbine Bronze!!! That does get painted White. Even the vinyl Roof!!
vintagercr Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 It's a great movie. I've had a DVD version for a few years now.
DavidChampagne Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I found it last week and downloaded it.Picture is good enough, for free.
wisdonm Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I built this cars years ago. The snap kit has all the needed decals. The names just need to be rearranged.
ZTony8 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I was 10 years old when that movie debuted.My buddy's parents took us to the local theatre to see it.When we exited the place after the end of the movie there was one of the real turbine cars parked at the curb!We thought that was SO cool! Oh yeah-even at 10 years of age I thought Pamela Tiffin was HOT!I found out later that she got an advanced degree and quit acting after only a handful of films.
Maindrian Pace Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Just don't have a drinking game with your friends whenever Pamela says "Oh, Casey!" -MJS
Foxer Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) I got curious as to the car coming in 2nd in the last race and came on this page with all cars listed. To mess up Harry's AutoID, it's a 1956 Dual-Ghia no Pamela Tiffins have been harmed in this post Edited November 15, 2013 by Foxer
2000-cvpi Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Just don't have a drinking game with your friends whenever Pamela says "Oh, Casey!" -MJS No kidding, I watched over half of that movie and she is annoying. Kinda pretty, but annoying.
ChrisBcritter Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I got curious as to the car coming in 2nd in the last race and came on this page with all cars listed. To mess up Harry's AutoID, it's a 1956 Dual-Ghia Close - it's actually a '61 Ghia L6.4. They argued for four years in French and English over it, but L6.4 it is.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 17, 2013 Author Posted November 17, 2013 Close - it's actually a '61 Ghia L6.4. They argued for four years in French and English over it, but L6.4 it is. Thanks for the info. I noticed it in the film, assumed it was Ghia from that era based on the nose, and had it on the research list. Thanks again for the time saved.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 17, 2013 Author Posted November 17, 2013 No kidding, I watched over half of that movie and she is annoying. Kinda pretty, but annoying. I've known a lot who were much less pretty and much more annoying.
lordairgtar Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 So I click on to the link and wound up watching the whole movie. Cool. The car in the flick did not have it's vinyl top so I guess sanding is the order of the day for this build.
Tom Geiger Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 Oh yeah-even at 10 years of age I thought Pamela Tiffin was HOT!I found out later that she got an advanced degree and quit acting after only a handful of films. Wiki says she acted in films all the way up to 1986. And sorry guys, she's 71! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamela_Tiffin
ChrisBcritter Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Here's Pamela in her last film, the 1986 Italian TV movie Rose - she still looks good at that point: Back to the car: Looking at the still from the movie, the number 5 on the door looks different from the one on the decal sheet; If I scanned it and modified it to match would anyone want me to post it?
jjsipes Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I just watched my dvd copy not that long ago. Great movie for car guys. In case any is interested here is where I got my dvd copy from. http://www.thevideobeat.com/jd-biker-hot-rod-movies/lively-set-1964.html
ChrisBcritter Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 OK. I started with the roof; it was a 300 DPI scan: I started by making the number bolder. I noticed the real movie car had a gap between the stripes and numbers, so I added that too. If you can make a usable decal from it let me know and I'll tackle the doors. Good luck!
