How do I dynamically call a JavaScript object’s method

I have function for different properties

setCar : function() {}
setBike : function() {}
setAirPlane : function (){}

I have object in format key value

var json = { Car : "Car1",
             Bike : "Bike1",
             AirPlane  : "test1" }

I want to call to the set function in dynamic way according to the object values:

 updateProperties : function(json) {        
 for ( var property in json) {
     //set + property (AdditionalProperties[property])
 };   

in the property I have the name of the function(Car,Bike,AirPlane) and in AdditionalProperties[property] I have the value of the property ( Car1,Bike1,test1.

Is it possible to do it ?

Why not? It is possible to do:

for (var property in obj) {
    typeof funcContainer["set" + property] === "function"
      && funcContainer["set" + property](obj[property]);
}

Where funcContainer is:

var funcContainer = {
    setCar : function() {},
    setBike : function() {},
    setAirPlane : function() {}
};
