The Bandit is not really a car I care much about, but I just finished a body for a friend. This is one of Genes great bodies and some home made stickers. It's not the original color, but Candy Red, one of my favorite colors.

7 Bandits complete my "Tale of 13 Bandits". Each one is as close to perfect as I can make it.
Special thanks to Gene/ZR1 
for the excellent bodies and Martin Windmill for excellent custom stickers and technical advice

That's the pic I have been waiting for 
Man they look good finished.
I assume the Dynamic decals did not get there yet ? It has been 3 days, maybe tomorrow?

Oh I got so excited I almost forgot, the Dynamic waterslides should arrive any day now.
THEN the project will be 100% done

NOW all 13 are 100% done I originally ordered 14 from Gene's World in case I screwed one up.
At this point I can safely say, miraculously, I didn't need to use it. So I hereby gift it to Martin

No answer expected or needed, but I've always asked myself, "Why would someone want a baker's dozen Bandit bodies?"

I don't know Matt - how about these? Not quite the same red, but not root beer either... I found my Super Bandit with this body, altho I know they're only supposed to be in black... What did Hi Johnson say? You can get the Super Bandit in any color, as long as it's black...

Seven is enough for me, and metallic red must of been popular too.
No, I have not finished the Super Bandits.

Hey Pablo, this looks like one of your bodies 
all the way from Venice, Italy.
Pretty tacky how he mounted the motor and did not use any, or the correct body mount
