        Comments:

        A concept car reminiscent of the "Spirit of America Sonic 1" rocket car, the Flying Needle is one of the Jet Power cars that was designed to operate with the
        Power Compressor accessory. The removable nose cone is usually missing.

        Shawn's Take!

        Modeled after the "Spirit of America" rocket car, is one of the most desirable of the Jet Power cars. It's found in magenta, red, orange, light green,
        teal, aqua, fuschia, gold, ruby, royal blue and purple. Most can be found for less than $60 with the magenta, blue and purple often close to $100. Average
        blisters are less than $100 but the magenta, blue and purple can often top $200.
