Slingshot Dragster Matchbox 1971 Superfast 1:64 Made in Anglia Dragster 9

The Matchbox Slingshot Dragster diecast model is a distinctive 1971 racing dragster, made in 1:64 scale and measuring approximately 77 mm in length. The metal body is finished in turquoise metallic paint, which highlights the vehicle's elongated, low-slung silhouette. An exposed silver, chromed V8 engine is positioned at the rear and is the most striking element of the design. Flame graphics are visible on the sides, while the body features racing number 9. The dragster has wide rear tyres typical of vehicles prepared for short, fast sprints, while the front remains visually slim and lightweight. The model has plastic components complementing the metal body. As a loose example, it may show signs of previous use, including paint wear or minor losses to the tampo graphics, emphasising its used, collectible character.

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.
