Big Banger Matchbox 1972 Superfast 1:64 Made in England Loose Red

Big Banger is a fantasy diecast model in 1:64 scale, made from a combination of a metal body and plastic components. The model has an intense red body with a low, wide shape reminiscent of an experimental racing car or custom vehicle. Four side exhaust pipes are fitted on each side, finished in silver and extending well beyond the outline of the bodywork. The wide tyres also draw attention, giving the design a massive, dynamic appearance. The body features multicoloured stickers and the prominent inscription “BIG BANGER”. The model is marked with catalogue number No 26. This is a loose example, meaning it is without its original packaging, and its condition is consistent with a typical model intended for display or play. The distinctive combination of red bodywork, silver exhausts and decorative graphics reflects the style of fantasy designs from the early 1970s.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
