This is the GMC Vandura A-Team Jet-car 1:43 scale by Norev.
The GMC Vandura A-Team van became an icon far beyond its role as a simple cargo van, immortalized by the 1980s TV series The A-Team. What set it apart was its unmistakable custom look—two-tone black and metallic gray paint with a bold red stripe, flared wheel arches, a rooftop spoiler, and turbine wheels—transforming a utilitarian work van into a symbol of action and adventure, and cementing it as one of the most recognizable pop-culture vehicles of its time.
Norev 1:43 scale Jet Cars are a distinctive diecast line introduced in the 1970s, aimed at younger collectors who wanted affordable, durable, and fun-to-play-with models. Unlike Norev’s more detailed collector-grade replicas, Jet Cars featured simplified designs, bright colors, and rolling wheels that emphasized speed and playability over strict authenticity. Their packaging often highlighted the “jet” theme, appealing to the imagination of kids at the time, and today they are remembered as nostalgic entry-level models that introduced many enthusiasts to the world of diecast collecting.
