Apollo 13 Set of 2 | 1965 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-350 (White with Blue Stripes) / 1970 Chevrolet Chevy Corvette Vette 427 (Red) | GreenLight Dioramas Series 4 | 1:64 Scale Diecast in Window Box (56040 Apollo)

Houston, we have a new Diorama!

Apollo 13 tells the story of the lunar flight operation by the same name and the astronauts involved. Jim Lovell (Tom Hanks) and his team, Fred Haise (Bill Paxton) and Jack Swiget (Kevin Bacon) all survived the space mission though it was aborted due to an explosion in one of the oxygen tanks. As a majority of the movie takes place in star speckled space, attention was taken on the ground and more specifically the cars!

There are two other stars in the film, a 1966 Shelby GT 350 and a 1970 Chevy Corvette Stingray. These two beauties share the big screen for a racing scene. As the real Apollo 13 mission took place in 1970 both of these cars embody the feel of an era as well as the personality, status and adrenaline seeking manner of those individuals that explore the final frontier.
