You are viewing a Johan 1/25 scale model of the experimental Chrysler Corporation Turbine car; this box was unopened until given to me by one of the engineers involved in the turbine project at Chrysler from the 1950s to the early 1980's. I have only opened it a couple of times, the box showing some wear from being stored in my dresser. Chrysler built approximately 50 of these vehicles, and held a lottery where you could drive one for 3 months to gather consumer opinion; when I was growing up, a neighbor actually had that honor! Box gives a brief history of the concept. There are a few surviving examples, one at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, MI and another in Jay Leno's personal collection.
