From Revell model car kits to being one of the first group of
Hot Wheels created, the Beatnik Bandit is one of the most recognized
custom show cars. Built on a 1955 Olds chassis shortened to 85 inches and powered by an Olds engine. Twin Ford Carbs sit on top the Bell Auto Parts blower.
Joy-stick steering control was the feature under the Bandit's custom bubble top. A fender mounted antenna operated the bubble top.
The Beatnik Bandit is a custom car created in 1961 by "Big Daddy" Ed Roth, originally as a project for Rod & Custom magazine. A Hot Wheels car was made based on the Beatnik Bandit. The thing that made the Beatnik Bandit different from most other cars, though, was that, instead of a steering wheel, it was controlled by a joystick.
