Ah, a classic. This is the vintage Adventure Team Escape Car. Introduced in 1970 as one of several Action Packs (including the cool Undersea Explorer) which were designed to be worn on the back, removed, assembled quickly, and put into action.
Here, my Air Adventurer prepares to assemble the car from its back-pack configuration.
I got this one on eBay with a vintage Mike Power in C8 condition for $15.00 plus shipping! It is missing only the straps and the back-board.

Here, the Air Adventurer assembles the car. First he unfolds the chassis, attaches the wheels, inserts the steering column. Seen here, he is sliding the seat into place. |

The Air Adventurer drives off on his cool new classic Escape Car. Why the Air Adventurer? Well, he's the only vintage-like Joe I had home with me when I did the shoot. Besides, the specialties of the Joes were just specialties. None of them shied away from any mission, no matter what the venue. |
I'm now in the market for the backboard, if anyone has one, please contact me.
