It is NOT the F150 ..
It has to be made by the same manufacturer. Avanti only lasted a couple years and later was reintroduced by another builder.

In that case I'll set the next question and it's a bit of a doozy. I'm from the Orkney Islands in the north of Scotland. The question is:- In what way are the Orkney Islands an important place in the Ford Motor Company history?

John S Gray, one of the first backers of ford motor company was born in Hoy which is one of the Orkney Islands. The same family still own the local shop on hoy but they cashed in their shares during the depression otherwise they would be very rich now

Only 300 hand-built polo white Corvette convertibles were produced for the 1953 model year
The 1954 model year vehicles could be ordered in Pennant Blue, Sportsman Red, Black, or Polo White.

OK good guess .. part right and part wrong..
1966 - 442 was offered with the tri power, being the L-69 option. The W-30
was in reality know as a (Outside Air Induction) option. Of which you had to have the L-69 option in order to get the W-30. 1967 did NOT offer Tri Power.
Their was another year that Olds offered Tri power. What was that ??
