1963 Chrysler Turbine

Here’s another odd vehicle in the works, the 1963 Chrysler Turbine. It was an experimental car to see the viability of that propulsion system. Fifty cars were made for public use. A few remain, including one with comedian Jay Leno. This 8w Speed Champion sized model features many of the details as well as an interior and engine bay. The rear taillights tilt inward just like the real car.

Since I end up building my cars in pairs for my “Brick Build Your Own Car” series of instruction books, I already have the second car picked. I just have to start modeling the [redacted] sooner or later.
