Description from the seller
Rare Polistil 1/10 Vintage Racing Car - Formula 1 / Indy "M. Andretti" #65 - 1970s Wired-Controlled Model (Made in Italy)
Overview and History:
Splendid and rare vintage racing car produced in Italy in the 1970s by the famous Polistil (formerly Politoys). It is a large-scale model (1/10, about 38 cm long) depicting a Formula 1 / IndyCar single-seater with a livery dedicated to the legendary driver Mario Andretti (race number #65).
Aesthetic Details and Components:
- Livery and Sponsors: The white hard-plastic body preserves the original period sponsor decals, including HEUER, STP, Firestone, Ford, Chronosport, Autolite, Britax-Weisler, and the March logo on the nose.
- Driver and Details: The original driver is present with a red helmet and blue suit, bluish-tinted windshield and chrome details (mirrors, exhausts, suspension).
- Wired Control: The model is equipped with its original orange wired controller.
Technical Specifications – Power:
- Battery Compartment: The wired controller is designed to house two C-type batteries (LR14 / 1.5V flashlight size) connected in series for a total of 3V.
Condition of the Item:
- Aesthetics: Very good cosmetic condition given its age, with normal and slight signs of wear on the plastics and decals (as clearly visible in the detailed photos).
- Mechanics / Electronics: The remote battery compartment has been opened to show the internal circuitry and contacts. As this is a vintage collectible with over 40 years of history, the electrical operation has not been tested and the item is sold "as is" (seen and liked), ideal for display, collection, or restoration project.
Shipping:
Professional and ultra-rugged packaging guaranteed to protect delicate parts and suspensions during transport. Tracked shipping via express courier.
