Description
The Bandit was a terrific and very attractive model by Dynamic, one that most collectors love today because it represents so well the classic era of slot car racing. It was also one of the few truly good cars one could buy at the time. First issued in late 1965 in a root-beer color and fitted with molded and ground sponge tires, set in a cardboard triangular window box, it first was re-issued in 1966 with gray neoprene sponge tires and smaller front tires, then in 1967 in a clear plastic box with a new dark red color. The last issue had an especially attractive metallic red body. Earlier issues have the purple AMT “Hornet” motor, while later issues have the same Mabuchi FT16D motor now painted silver.
