- The Majorette company launched the Fiat Ritmo in 1981 and produced it until 1986. The car was painted in many colors. Among other things, there was red, orange and yellow. The packaging of this car differed from each other. To display subtitles in your language at the bottom of the movie, please press C on the computer or the three dots on the mobile phone in the movie. Among them was a cardboard box that I made, a blister and a plastic ultrasonically sealed package. My model was quite badly damaged and its plastic front grille was badly changed by the previous owner. Unfortunately, I was not able to make a copy of this dummy, so I had to fix it in some way, at least in part. I also straightened the lockable tailgate, which was bent quite a bit. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on UA-cam on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

Wonderful. I have probably 20 of these on various colors. The ritmo (called the Strada in the USA) is an all time favorite for me. I have 5 of the full size ones and am completing a full restoration on one of them (also a 4 door). Side note, always found it funny that Majorette added the Abarth stripes on a 4 door when all Abarth modes were 2 doors. Oh well, a’ Abarth 4 door would have been fun!
Cool. Trhank you very much
They sold this car in the U.S?? I never knew. It was not a bad car, except it started rusting in the brochure already.
@@fatdad64able Yes they did but the front and rear had unique and strange bumpers. 4 of my 5 are California cars since new and have zero rust BUT i had one from the state of Wisconsin that broke down a lived in a garage from 1986 to 2006. Someone decided to paint it before they sold it in 2006 so it looked wonderful but when I began working on the car a few years later, the horrors were found. The car was rotted almost everywhere at the rear. Parted it out to rescue one that lived in a California desert for 30 years so the perfect plastic and rubber came in handy. I think none of the fiats of this vintage could survive salt and moisture.
Also called a strada in the uk , we have mk 2 super strada cabrio , lovely little car it will be 40 next year and still going strong
Ffffff
Witam. Pozdrawiam serdecznie i życzę miłego, nowego tygodnia 😃👍
Oraz weekendu.
Love the restoration on this Fiat, turned out fantastic!! My parents had a late model Ritmo / Strada as it was called here, an despite what a lot of people say about them. It was a excellent car for us, since it was very reliable. Seeing this little Majorette model, bought back many good memories of holidays an day trips away 🙂 🚗
Cool. Thank you very much
Nie bądź dla siebie zbyt surowy, mój drogi Paulu. Ritmo wyszło świetnie, a pomysł z przednią tablicą rejestracyjną to wisienka na torcie...😁
Bardzo dobra robota, jestem zachwycony. Zdecydowane kciuki w górę ode mnie 👍🏼
Dzięki za podzielenie się z nami moim przyjacielem. Życzę Tobie i Twojej rodzinie wspaniałego weekendu i pozostańcie bezpieczni i zdrowi. Kontynuujcie dobrą pracę.
Pozdrowienia z wybrzeża Morza Północnego, Paul

Don't be too hard on yourself, my dear Paul. The Ritmo turned out great and the idea with the front number plate is the icing on the cake...😁
Very good work, I am thrilled. Definitely a thumbs up from me for this 👍🏼.
Thank you so much for sharing, mate. Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work.
Greetings from the North Sea shore, Paul

Sei nicht zu hart zu dir, mein lieber Paul. Der Ritmo ist großartig geworden und die Idee mit dem vorderen Nummernschild ist das Tüpfelchen auf dem I...😁
Sehr gute Arbeit, ich bin begeistert. Von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼
Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund. Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so.

Vielen Dank Paul
Majorette was one of my favorites growing up, but they've always had such horrible paint! Good suspension and the addition of the tow hitch was awesome. :)
The luggage and badging also put them above the rest for me.
Thank you very much

Muchas gracias Pedro
I'm French and remember those Majorettes I had when I was a kid. However none of mine came in such card boxes. There were all sold in blister packs. Very nice resto, once more !
Thank you very much
Had this model Ritmo in Red was called Strada in the UK nice resto 👍
Cool. Thank you very much
Świetny! I te charakterystyczne felgi dla modeli Majorette z tamtego okresu! ;) Chociaż mam z sentymentu pontiaca fiero i te szerokie koła miały tylko okrągłą, chromowaną obwódkę. Jak zawsze super robota!
Dziękuje serdecznie
Very nice save considering what you had to work with (front end damage) The Ritmo was extremely popular when it first came out and won several "car of the year awards", but the popularity faded very quickly and most model makers never included it in their ranges.
I have a few Ritmo diecast models, but all but one are modern collector models. The only one of vintage origin is a red Dinky France #1403, issued in 1981 as one of their very last diecasts, so it was quite nice to see this one from Majorette. While modern collectors diecasts often look good, they don't have that special "toy car" feel and charm of the old ones, like that opening tailgate on yours.
I'll list my modern Ritmo diecasts (all in 1/43th scale), for any collectors out there who may have been inspired by your restoration to try hunting down a Ritmo model for their own collections:
Grani & Partners/Edison, #803521, Ritmo 60/L, light blue
Grani & Partners/DeAgostini, #5125CMC023, Ritmo 60/L, civilian police (IT), dark blue (from police cars partwork collection)
Atlas/Altaya/Ixo, #NQC'80-008, Seat Ritmo 75 CL, blue metallic (from spanish partwork collection Nuestros Queridos Coches)
Atlas/Altay/Ixo, #NCV'80-081, Fiat Ritmo 75 CL, blue metallic (same model as above, but Fiat badged and from partwork collection Nos Cheres Voitures)
Norev, #AZ08, Ritmo Abarth 125 TC, black (from partwork collection "Fiat Collection")
My personal favourite from the above is the first one on the list with tan interior, super-crisp badge- and license plate stencils and beautiful light lenses, including multi-coloured taillights.
Thank you very much for the interesting comment. I don't know why UA-cam paused this comment. That's why I found it only now
Magnifique restauration!! J’aimerais bien pouvoir faire la même chose avec mes vieilles majorette… Quand on regarde vos vidéos, on se dit que le nombre d’outils et de produits nécessaires à ces restaurations est assez impressionnant… Ce n’est pas donné à tout le monde et peut vraiment faire l’objet d’un métier à part entière et à temps plein…
Bravo pour votre chaîne et vivement la restauration d’autres majorette…
Merci beaucoup
Eine tolle Restauration dieses beschädigten Fiat Ritmo. Durch Deine Arbeit sieht er nun wieder so aus, das er den Auftritt im Schauraum des Händler bestreiten kann.
Erst recht in der Abarth-Version. Tolle Arbeit. Gruß, Joachim
Świetna renowacja zniszczonego Fiata Ritmo. Dzięki Twojej pracy wygląda teraz, jakby znów mógł pojawić się w salonie dealera.
Zwłaszcza w wersji Abarth. Dobra robota. Pozdrowienia, Joachim
Vielen Dank Joachim
Sweet childhood recollections. I liked that one. The best among the Fiat range was the 127, I loved the dog molded at the back seat. Nice restoration as usual!!
Thank you very much
This made a change for you paul no major repairs or moulding to do ,excellent finish.
All the best Martin 👍
Thank you very much Martin

That was another outstanding restoration, Paul. I always enjoy watching your work. Greetings from Switzerland - Andrew 🍁👊
Thank you very much Andrew
Here in the US. the car was imported in the late 1970s as the Strada if I remember. As always Paul, you knocked another restoration out of the ballpark.
Thank you very much John
Used to have one of this Ritmo when I was a kid - I think it was orange - this video brought me back at that time... Cheers!
Cool
Great restore Paul congratulations, have a nice day greetings from South America 👊🏼😉🇨🇱

I bought a used white Fiat Ritmo 65 cl in 1984. By the time I sold it, it started to look like this model car before restoration 😄
Cool
What an adorably cute little car❤️❤️❤️
Belo trabalho! Tenho 48 anos e ainda tenho vários carrinhos majorette da minha infância, cheios de marcas de brincadeiras🙂
Muito obrigado
Always love the Majorette cars,they had 'proper' suspension!Havent seen a FIAT Strada for years,rusted to oblivion unfortunately....Always facied the abarth or cabrio versions😍
Cool
I've got this one on my to do pile. You did a great job on yours
Cool
when i was a child, Majorette had the best suspensions, could even give the front wheels some negative camber, those were the days. * good job on the fiat strada
Cool. Thank you
‘Built by robot, driven by Italians’ was the advertising pitch for the Strada in the UK. Didn’t like them myself; the front end was just…. 🤓
Nice restoration…..better than the real thing! 🤣👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻
Thank you very much
piękny samochód, fantastyczna renowacja, gratulacje!!
Muchas gracias
Great work! Actually I remember on the real model the bumpers when they weren't painted same body color they were just plastic dark grey.
Thank you very much
Very nice restoration and video. Got here while searching advice for restoring a Majorette 504 from the seventies. Thanks.
Thank you very much
Lubię takie rzeczy, fajnie ze Polak🙂👍🏼

Thank you very much
0:42 un po di sporcizia ahaha
Ottimo lavoro, complimenti e viva la Ritmo!!!
Grazie mille
Nice to see a FIAT Ritmo! Great job. Maybe the bumpers should have been satin dark grey like in reality, not black.
Thank you very much
Wonderful..this is May car in 1990 ..Bravissimo. .ottimo lavoro.!! .👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👋......! Fantastic. !!!.👌.
Grazie mille
I actually had this one as a kid, I wasn't sure until I saw the tennis rackets molded in the boot. My old sister had a friend who drove a brand new one at the time and I thought it was cool that I had the miniature version of it. Not that I've ever owned or wanted to own a Fix It Again Tomorrow, the last good cars they made were the 124 and 125 series as copied by Lada.
Cool
Looks great nicely done.
Thank you very much
Great work and video Paul. Stay save my friend 😎👍
Thank you very much
Excelent work! 👌👌
Thank you very much to Andre
Nice one. I've got this same car in red, in about the same condition as yours was laying around somewhere.
Cool
Super robota , mam wrażenie że produkty majorette są dokładniej odwzorowane od popularnych hot wheels-ów
Dziękuję bardzo. Na pewno były bardziej realistyczne
@@PaulRestorer Które wg pana jako eksperta żelaźniaki były lepsze: Majorette czy Matchbox?
Nice little casting, beautiful restoration!
Thank you very much
Mais uma grande aula. Parabéns mais uma vez.
Muito obrigado Jose
Very nice restoration Paul. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much Charlie
Some years ago two hicks in Piedmont pulled a robbery and fled aboard a Fiat Ritmo, the Police nailed them a few hours later as it was the car of the Grandfather of one of the robbers and it happened to be the only Ritmo still regularly immatriculated in that particular province!
Was just thinking when was the last time I saw Ritmo on road. Must be several years, they are pretty much all rusted away.
Bravo Paul 👍 et Vive Majorette ma marque Favorite j en ai à peut prêt 3000 surtout les Anciennes de 1965 à 1980 😊 d ailleur mon sobriquet c est Majo 80 😉🇫🇷
Merci beaucoup Pascal
Auf Fiat Ritmo hab ich den Führerschein gemacht. ^^
Cool
Wow Fiat Ritmo 🔝🔝🔝
Thank you very much
Great model, i had a red one
Thank you very much . Cool
I had one of these as my first car. It was the three door in a vile shade of green. As cars go, it was crap, but I’d love another. I guess I’m just sentimental.
Cool
Nicely done kolego, I like the added license plate
Thank you very much Don
Fantastic! Great job 👍
Thank you very much
Perfekt ✨✨✨
Thank you very much
Gréât cars man ! 😎👍 good job ✊🏼💪
Thank you very much
super !
Dziękuję bardzo
Great job Paul! 👍
Thank you very much
Den gleichen habe ich als Kind, 1983, in rot bei in Bad Berleburg ( Sauerland ) im Supermarkt erstanden und habe ihn ( wie alle meine Spielzeug-Autos ) noch heute.
Tolle Restaurierung des Modelles in gelb und dazu noch mit der Original-Schachtel.
Meiner war damals in einer Papp-Plastik-Packung ( wie bei SIKU ) gewesen.
Cool. Vielen Dank
great nob. I’ve a lot of Majorette, matchbox, Hot Wheels of the ‘70 and ‘80 and now thanking you I’ll try to do (almost) the same
Thank you very much
It was a racecar. I remember a totally different colour scheme. The tennis rackets in the boot could have been enhanced. But nice enough.
Cool
He disfrutado mucho viendo este primer video. Gracias por compartir tu tiempo y experiencia con nosotros.
Muchas gracias
