AMT 1:25 Scale Man from U.N.C.L.E Piranha Spy Car Toy

That futuristic car that appeared the hit TV series Man from U.N.C.L.E was built by Gene Winfield in the AMT Corporation’s “Speed & Custom Division” shop in Arizona. Winfield had previously built many of the Ford and Chrysler prototypes of new car designs, cars for TV, and for private customers. He was hired by the AMT model company in 1962 as a customizing consultant, and in 1964 he was asked to open a new AMT shop in Phoenix to build working, full-size versions of cars to be featured as AMT models.
