Haha, not only do we see the results of Paul Restorer's brilliant talents, but Paul himself!!! The video of you behind the wheel of the Rekord as a child is magnificent! My Dad was somewhat of a camera enthusiast, but the photos rarely were any good! I don't recall any photos of the childhood "me" with an actual car, despite my similar passion. Thank you as always, Paul!
Now, paul, this is why you are one of the most respected restorer on UA-cam .Your work is superb, and the attention to the details is second to non . Nice to see you enjoying yourself in your dads car .all the best, martin
Maestro. A true labor of love. ❤ You expended your considerable expertice and care here with such deep affection! The movie of you as a little boy is so charming! How wonderful to visit your childhood with such a perfect automotive touchstone. All the memories you must have felt from riding in your family car as you restored this model to beauty from despair. Car people ascribe and feel enormous love to the cars of their youth. I do too! Bravo, Maestro. Outstanding job!! ❤ Stephen
PAUL, mais uma bela restauração, parabéns pela criatividade para recriar o chassi. E que legal o vídeo de quando vc era criança, são essas coisas que valem ser guardadas e lembradas durante as nossas vidas.
I loved the Volga Gaz 21 as a child. We had a few taxis here and I managed to ride in the Volga a few times. For me it was a very luxurious car. It had a beautiful interior finish and chrome exterior. Kind regards
Very good Paul. Nice of you to include the family footage. My dad never had a video camera but I know there must be a picture of me in a family album, sitting behind the wheel of a VW Beetle. Same time, same haircut, same clothes. We could be brothers 😊
*_What an amazing video! I have never seen anything like it. I can't imagine how much time went into restoring it, let alone your skill and talent. Bravo!_*
What a terrific rebuild of a truly classic beautiful Opel!! Paulie, we all appreciate the details, the determination, the expertise, & the care you put into each of your fantastic restorations!! Thank you so much for sharing these cool videos, & for bringing us along for each one!!

Amazing resto paul what a challenge I'm very impressed the way you made the missing parts the repair of the baseplate that takes some serious skill to do that top class job

Stworzył Pan piękny samochodzik z czegoś, co kto inny wyrzucił by do śmieci. Widać że oprócz cierpliwości ma Pan również zamiłowanie do prac precyzyjnych. Oglądałem z przyjemnością. Gratuluje wykonania.👏
@@PaulRestorer this is maybe the 200th model I followed the restoration. I believe you are the only one able to bring them to factory condition, as they were
Nice to see how you brought to life a model, again. Hope you find even more full opening models from italian Politoys and Mebetoys such as Iso Rivolta GT (1963), Maserati Sebring 3500GTS Coupe (1962), Ferrari Dino Pininfarina Berlinetta (1965) and so on. Keep up your great work!
👏 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌 what a beautiful restoration of the Politoys Polistil Opel Diplomat V8. I must say I am impressed how you restored the base. I like that you used an aluminum metal piece and not some composite material instead. I also like how you overlapped the two metal pieces and that it’s held or bonded together with screws and not glue. Why didn’t you use glue to hold the two pieces together? It seems easier to use glue however probably not as durable. I would have loved to see you use aluminum as well instead of plastic that holds the rear wheels in place. But again very beautifully restored
Thank you very much. That's why I didn't glue these two parts because I thought that connecting them with screws was simpler and much more durable. screwing in the screws from the inside kept the chassis the same height because their heads didn't go below his. in my videos I try to show various techniques, so this one seemed very interesting and effective to me. In one of the upcoming videos I will also make the entire chassis from aluminum because the model does not have this chassis. greetings from Krakow
Congratulations Paul as always of the beautiful restoration work again a successful rescue the video filmed by your father is just great good continuation 👍
Perfekte Arbeit und cooles Video.Top.Sehr schön anzuschauen. Habe einen Diplomat A V8 als KFz in der Garage zum Restaurieren.Sind sehr schöne Fahrzeuge. Grüße Kuni
True Craftsmanship in this restoration. The colour is beautiful, and suits the Diplomat very well. Our family car when I was young was the Australian version of this GM design: 1965 Holden HD series station wagon.
Es ist immer wieder sehr schön Ihre Videos zu sehen. Da bekomme ich richtig Lust, ebenfalls solche Modelle zu reparieren. Ich kann mich auch sehr entspannen bei den Beiträgen. Herzlichen Dank.😊
Beautifully done, Paul. Nice detailing on the new piece. By the way, I guess the manufacturer overdid it, adding a 12-cylinder exhaust system to the V8 engine.
Non conoscevo questo modello, davvero bello e ben costruito. Ma la Politoys in quel periodo ha realizzato modelli davvero ben fatti e ricchi di particolari Questa Diplomat era davvero malconcia, ma, come sempre l' hai rimessa a nuovo,meglio e più dettagliata dell' originale . Sempre eccellente la ricerca dei particolari e della soluzione ai problemi, ma anche la tua ingegnosità e la manualità! Complimenti! Infine,bellissimo l' inserimento del tuo filmato personale di quando eri piccolo, quasi commovente!
(Beautiful model and) another superb restoration! Congrats Paul! That resurrection job you practiced on the chassis was on point. (At first I said to myself that - if it was me doing the restoration - I would have probably gone with some sort of welding technique instead, but giving it a second thought, it is probably a too stressed section of the model for a welding to withstand, so good call on going for sure with the screws solution). Not only you de-scraped it back to life with that repair, but it also - after detailing and paint - ended up integrating with the original section even better than I had originally anticipated. I'm also so glad that you keep on pumping these - they are, generally speaking, a delight to watch - out regularly after all this time, specially when so many other channels with similar content seem to have ran out of steam these days.
As always, the restoration is perfect- the chassis !!! Great - the paint is beautiful and reminds me the colors of the 70's. Once again congratulations
After I was born, I was brought home by Ford Taunus. No footage from this event. So this time, video of Paul in Diplomat impress me more than excellent restauration 😃.
Nooo muszę przyznać że osiągnął Pan mistrzostwo w przywracaniu do życia tych leciwych już zabawek. Moje szczere uznanie. Pozdrawiam.

My first memory of my first car was the Gaz-21 Volga. It was a luxurious big car of the USSR, and I remembered it for its shape and beauty.
I loved the Volga Gaz 21 as a child. We had a few taxis here and I managed to ride in the Volga a few times. For me it was a very luxurious car. It had a beautiful interior finish and chrome exterior. Kind regards
Funny thing is, the early Volga looks like Opel Kapitän and the later Volga like the Diplomat.
Paul thank you for bringing back old classic cars I remember you are the best
