I've got this little 1980s car build in red and in white. It's a really cute little car, but today's Lego cars are a lot better.

Studs on the hood only makes it that much more obvious that this thing has all the aerodynamic qualities of a cactus tied to a brick.

I wasn't bonkers for getting this set, but still I like having this car rolling in my town. Besides black seat wasn't a common occurrence.

Real missed opportunity to have the stripes on the roof too

"Second 80's vehicle in a row on RSotD! I notice how both figures are walking in the same direction and one door on each vehicle is open."

Yes. Huwbot must be experiencing some Legoland Town System nostalgia. The "posing" of the mini-figures and vehicles I assume is to exhibit functionality or else because this was when the real models were posed for the box art as compared to the current renderings. This car resides in my collection; it was part of a special Legoland Town Value pack 1967. These value packs at the time were rare to find in stores in my area,

More 4-wide goodness! Okay, this wasn't exactly the most exciting set of that era, but I like what they did with those stripes. Would have been even better if those had continued over the roof, but then they had to ditch the hinged roof.

It would have been better though if they had named this something like "GTI" instead...

Not much of a family car, as TD Bricks pointed out in his "old LEGO" video

And I love how it costs $200 mint in box when you can literally buy the pieces and minifigure for probably $15

Cool car. The stripes look interesting.

Woo hoo, one of my childhood sets, and amazingly it survived completely intact.

I dont recall this one being offered in the United Kingdom, but I was happy with 6634 anyway. Or 6655, or the very similar cars that came with 6371, 6374, 6384…

This has been Huwbot's small set week. Except for the space shuttle, they've all been 50 or fewer pieces.

"Also striped shirt. Proof he’s married as I doubt any single guy would wear that."

The striped shirt is the Lego City football team uniform, as seen in sets like 3409.

...only he's wearing it fifteen years before the Lego City football team existed!

I was so puzzled when I first saw that design in older sets, having assumed that it was new at the time. Still curious to me that they rolled out an old print and put numbers on the back of it (and changed the arm colour) to make the first wave of Sports minifigures, instead of making a unique design.

He is the family because he lives alone, like most Brickset members because they only go out to buy more Lego instead of going on a date."

Dislike!

I am surprised no one has said "his family is in the trunk." Of course if this was a Fabuland set, that would have been one of the first three comments.

I would go out with the Never Witch from 71477.

I'm afraid that button doesn't exist.

@calculus_teacher: 1967 was a a multi-theme set, and didn't include this set anyway. Did you put the wrong set number in? If that's what happened, a calculus teacher should be more careful with numbers than that.

Mmmm.
Cake."
The cake is a lie!

Particularly if an elephant was driving it.

Don't be silly. Elephants aren't carnivores. He'd be fleeing for his life.
