Dinky Toys restoration of a Ford Capri No. 165. Toy model cast.

  • The Dinki company produced this model in the years 1969 - 1975. It had many interesting solutions. One of them was active suspension, which was characterized by thin axles. These wheel axles, due to a bend in the central part, provided themselves with suspension. To display the subtitles in your language in the movie, please press C on the computer or the three dots on the mobile phone in the movie. The Dinky company, as usual, reproduced the Ford Capri in great detail. The model had folding seats, opening doors and rectangular crystal headlights. In my copy, I had to make a new PET glass pane based on a broken original pane. I also made new wheel axles, because the old ones were quite bent and could not be straightened. I was able to reproduce the paint, which was quite a complex color. I also made a cardboard box for it according to the original one. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

    That car brings back memories, as a child my brother in a tantrum, threw the Dinky Capri at me, it missed and broke the bedroom window. As always the restored model looks fabulous. I like the sequence for selecting the paint color.

    Określenie właściwego odcienia koloru jest wręcz naukowe...
    (cytat: Moja żona😁)
    Ale ja się z tym zgadzam. Super robota, Paweł 👍🏼😎
    Regeneracja osi jest również najwyższej klasy. W sumie to GAEC (fabryczne oznaczenie Forda dla brytyjskiego Capri, w Europie samochód oficjalnie nazywał się GECP).
    wspaniały kawałek historii motoryzacji i wyjątkowo piękny model.
    Dzięki za podzielenie się z nami moim przyjacielem.
    Życzę Tobie i Twojej rodzinie wspaniałego weekendu i pozostańcie bezpieczni i zdrowi. Kontynuujcie dobrą pracę.
    Twoje filmy są integralną częścią mojego tygodnia i bez nich czegoś by mi brakowało.
    Pozdrowienia z Morza Północnego, Paul

    Determining the correct hue is downright scientific....
    (Quote: My wife😁).
    But I second that. Super work, Paul 👍🏼😎
    The remanufacturing of the axles is also top notch. All in all, this GAEC (Ford factory designation of the British Capri, in Europe the car was officially called GECP).
    A great piece of automotive history and an exceptionally beautiful model.
    Thanks so much for sharing, mate.
    Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work.
    Your videos are an integral part of my week and without them, something would be missing.
    Greetings from the North Sea, Paul
    😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠
    Die Ermittlung des korrekten Farbtones ist ja geradezu wissenschaftlich...
    (Zitat: Meine Frau😁)
    Aber dem schließe ich mich an. Super Arbeit, Paul 👍🏼😎
    Auch die Neufertigung der Achsen ist erstklassig. Alles in allem ist dieser GAEC (Ford-Werksbezeichnung des britischen Capri, in Europa hieß das Fahrzeug offiziell GECP)
    ein tolles Stück Automobilgeschichte und ein außergewöhnlich schönes Modell.
    Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund.
    Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so.
    Deine Videos sind ein fester Bestandteil meiner Woche und ohne sie, würde etwas fehlen.

      Is it called Glass Coat Gauzy Agent ?
      If that's correct how do you think it would work on a vintage clear plastic dial window from a vintage radio ? Any thoughts.
