    Love that your grand father hooked you up with that tailgate and those mud-flaps lol. Also, just realized that Tyco used the Nissan D21 Hardbody for their Bandit design. The hood with those three front slits and the king cab windows to the roof are the giveaway .

    I had a red mini bandit when I was young. Now I grew up dirt floor poor so it was my most prized possession. Drove that thing til the rear tires were nearly bald mostly pulling a Lego trailer I’d made. Trying to find one now for my rc collection is near impossible and when I do find one they’re really expensive. Absolutely loved that thing !!!really miss it.

    • @AMPROEngineering

      Awe I totally hear that. We couldnt afford one either so even though these were junk, I loved them.

      @@AMPROEngineering since I got my first job at 16 over 20yrs ago I’ve got myself whatever toys I wanted. My rc room is like many others I’ve seen so I’m not alone- more stock than a lot of hobby shops in new and used models and many new parts in packaging lol. Sadly my discontinued inventory grows each year.

      @AMPROEngineering ooh I'm I intrigued was going original or Mini King Cab livery but apart from missing front bumper is intact so repaint and modern electronics for mine as the controller is long gone. Got it from a friend but it is actual the one from my youth!

    I love all the old tyco, nikko, radio shack and sears RCs! 😊 My friend had two lobo ii buggies that we played with after school. I wanted to get a super lobo but instead bought a rc-10 graphite in the early 90s.

    Both those trucks are cool. The yellow King Cab in that old RRCA review is probably still influential to this day too.

    Rear shock mount on my bandit is also broken off same as yours. I am trying to figure out a way to fix it. I have some nice oil shocks to put on the back when i do manage to repair it.

      Yes, just about. I have some old nissan shells I plan on putting on the C24 chassis.

      Awesome. I have a junk Super Bandit chassis i bought really cheap for parts, but the other cars dont really break and don't really need replacement parts :D Only the bumpers which i 3 d print from time to time. Gonna try to put a junker ;) car together, order myself a blue WPL body, and order some re-printed Bandit decals on it.
