    This is such a heartwarming story of a little car getting a 2nd life

    @christopherbraun9429 4 роки тому

    You really knocked this one out of the park. The colour is great, as are the decals and small details. And the wheels fit it so well. That's a gorgeous job there, Rob

    Great way to give that little model a second chance! I think it looked superb just with the polished exposed metal. It just goes to show how much work you had put in

    The whole thing came up really nice but that window, WOW!!!! INCREDIBLE restoration mate. Thanks.

    Another wonderful restoration. Everytime you resurrect a car i get so inspired to try as i have so many in my collection screaming for new lives

    I would love to see another version in British racing Green and one in the Gulf colours.

    Almost as good as '84, Ghostbusters happened, and so did I! I cannot believe you managed to bring that model back. It looks amazing!

    You knocked this 1 out of the park. What a transformation.

  • @KCRambles
    @KCRambles 4 роки тому +1

    A spectacular restoration/custom - between the wheels and the colour combo and the sheer decrepitude of the starting point. Bravo! Keep On Keepin' On! :)

    The details in the rear... Those black accents around the backlights...
    Gorgeous build ❤️

    This was a spectacular restoration. I didn't think you had enough to work with. You really took this from ashy to classy.

    Stunning! Another revival, gold colour looks fantastic, perfect wheels, this classic racing car deserved it. Great, great job, like usually 👍

  • @MrCsKnotAnotherTie

    Amazing transformation, that window buffing was to the extreme. Fabulous paint job. For me, best restoration yet, definitely from "Very shabby to shiny" Keep up the good work 👍

  • @Gizzzy

    Did not think it could be saved. Turned out absolutely awesome though. Wow.

    I feel like, this is by far your best work.
    I would have put money down, that you wouldn't be able to save that windshield.
    Proved me wrong

  • @stevenmacdonald9619
    @stevenmacdonald9619 4 роки тому

    And this one. Yes your observation is spot on. They were in the garden all the time and they'd get jammed into the soil. All the paint damage was from throwing them all into one big box unprotected, they'd get carried and moved around, clinking together as they went. At 7 I had no idea what a collectible was.

  • @raymonde4272
    @raymonde4272 4 роки тому

    That body came up shiny before the paint, it would be interesting to see a model in bare metal with just a clear coat. The hard work spent cleaning that up really paid off.

  • @MrNickyDalenz
    @MrNickyDalenz 4 роки тому

    Crazy good looking. As a general rule, I don't like gold paint. However the paint job looks fantastic & the overall restoration is just amazing. Well done.

    What an amazing transformation, from a scraper to concours... as Ferdinand Porsche apparently said: " I couldn't find the sports car of my dreams, so I built it myself."

  • @jasonleone5480

  • @stevenwalden2684
    @stevenwalden2684 4 роки тому

    @stevenjones19-m8i 4 роки тому

    Hi Rob,what a great video,it don't even look the same model,it was beaten and scratched before, and now what a fine example the wheels suit the racing theme and the number 83.

  • @Goat1750
    @Goat1750 4 роки тому

    This one turned out wonderful! I do like the gold color, but I think it could've looked stunning were it left polished with some clearcoat.

  • @joethompson61
    @joethompson61 4 роки тому

    You need a small vacuum table to set the old glass on and reback Hume clear glass over it making new glass very cool and neat

  • @gregfoster4541
    @gregfoster4541 4 роки тому

  • @georgesmith8255
    @georgesmith8255 4 роки тому

    I have been using flat black primer then chrome as a base.. then put the candy over the chrome.. it comes out with a very wet looking paint job as well...

  • @scalecustomworkz7837
    @scalecustomworkz7837 4 роки тому

  • @beasleytkd7694
    @beasleytkd7694 4 роки тому

    I love these restorations. I am thinking a out trying this my self. I use to customize wrestling a rion figures in my 20's and sold quite a few when the internet was still kind of new. I retire from the fire service at 45 this year and I love the idea of transforming these old car from shabby to shinny. I will be doing so much research on this.

  • @nunocarocinho6857
    @nunocarocinho6857 4 роки тому

    When u were adding primer i kinda thought, at 8:20, OMG that than would be killer in gun metal paint.
    When u look at it, at 10:40, in my opinion, the gold feels flavourless over that yellow glass. BUT the wheels look cool as hell and i actually need that very set for a Ford Escort RS1800. Maybe highlighting door gaps and such like the F40 would give it extra something?

  • @RoadRunnergarage8570
