The 'Bandini 750 international sport also called simply ' "saponetta ", is a car built by 1957 1961 from [[Bandini Cars] ] Forlì.
This new type of car, prepared for categria 750 sports, replaced the production of sporttorpedo. The adjective International wanted to pay tribute to the merits collected from overseas 750 sports torpedowhile "bar of soap" is the name under which it was identified by the same Ilario Bandini for its rotondeggianti forms, similar to those of just a bar of soap.
As the model which replaced the bar of soap'was much in demand USA where it was used both as auto racing that as "out of range" to be submitted to the streets in the city. His debut in the race dates back to A Thousand Miles, 1957 (proof of World) led by Bruno Garavini, with an engine 750 cm ³ Bandini-Crosley updated (second series) especially in the head recognizable for the spinterogeno mounted between the two camshafts and the lids of punterie inclined at 45 ° with glaring longitudinal ribs.
The bar of soap, maintained the characteristics of simplicity and lightness while improving road holding and penetration aerodynamics. Dote which was exploited in motodromes as the famous circuit Daytona and the ring of high-speed 'Track of Monza.
The Story
((Also see Ilario Bandini)) Despite the successes are not missing in USA and races uphill and Italian circuit, the "bar of soap" initially paid the rapid evolution of regulation in a short time saw the rise of engine capacity to 850 cm ³ and then to 1000 cm ³. However proved a car fast and successful, able to express themselves at high levels even with higher displacements collecting victories with Gene Parsons, James Eichenlaub (both ex aequo vicecampioni U.S. SCCA in 1958), Dave Lang ( third in the final classification 1961 with only four races: three first and second place), Skip Callanan, Paul Richards, Victor Lukens, Jack Connolly, Giorgio Cecchini and Ilario Bandini circuit and up until [[1965] ]. Wins's most prestigious given that many car competitors had engine at the rear; choice desitnata to influence the entire motor sports. In this context, it is most important third place to Trento-Bondone in 1964 (valid for the European championship mountain) and fourth place to Mugello circuit road, 1965 (Valid proof for World Championship sports) both obtained by Antonio Benelli.
Today, nine "bar of soap" remained, one is exposed to the museum Marconi Los Angeles, two are stored in the museum Bandini Forlì.
The Frame
The chassis construction Bandini, while using the same type of elements of750torpedo, is modified in size and weight distribution. Increase pace and roadways, the height from the ground is significantly reduced and also the position of the pilot is considerably lowered. The engine compartment, largest, will allow the housing of the subsequent engine 850 and 1000 cm ³. The rear suspension has been enhanced with an anti-tramp and, in some exceptions, of a system with wheels independent.

The Engines
The bar of soap'was born with the engine Bandini-Crosley 750 cm ³ but from 1959 was also used with engines 850 cm ³ and 1000, the first engines built completely with Bandini the transmission chain, whose project is dated 1955. There are also copies that are running with engines Saab and Ford.

The Body
The bodywork in aluminium open two-seater (boat) are built in Forlì by Bandini. Since the first copy to the type, have undergone radical changes also in the queue: in the first version appeared laterally two vertical fins, some have a truncated tail, in the final model is elongated, low and clean. The front instead appears definitive if not minor differences in the form of air-intake front, a composition of an ellipsoid and a semicirconferenza. Significant between a model and the other is the air vent hot side of the engine compartment, sometimes rectangular smussata trapezoid, parallelogram single or double. Always an air directed inside the (cylindrical opening with about half side) characterizes the car with which he ran Ilario Bandini. It varies considerably height or shape of windshield while a mobile bulkhead may sessere mounted sull'abitacolo to reduce aerodynamic drag The same attention was paid to the rear wheels that could be covered half a removable bulkhead. In this respect is curious to see how the rule which introduced the use of roll-bar may have been exploited to create a fairing which seems to have the function of a wing.
