The build Up from the previous scenes, to the in-scene tension and angst of the transformation, to the out of nowhere reveal. The doors slowly opened as the majestic music played and she was revealed, GEN 11, the most beautiful car ever made, basked in all of her glory. Simply amazing moment as in my opinion, on of the best scenes and best build ups to a scene in movie history. The pacing was on point, it was prolonged yet it wasn't rushed. The cast and crew for this film should be incredibly proud of themselves for scenes like this and the movie itself

Always thought the score was lovely here- full of charm (the assembly), magic (the bedtime story), and even suspense in the last few seconds when the children are looking out the window wondering if the car's ever gonna be finished. And, of course, the reveal is magnificent. An "Oz Technicolor" moment.

The wrecked "Chitty" was put into the barn nose first, and the restored "Chitty" emerged nose first; this means Mr. Potts picked up every piece of "Chitty" and moved/rotated the component 180 degrees, including the frame which probably weighed 200 kilos by itself!

I could never figure out how Potts was supposed to have rebuilt/restored and modified the car in a matter of "days," as Jeremy tells us. However, the car really was magical, so it's possible the spirit that dwelled in the car "helped" Potts rebuild it in a matter of days. The book explains it more clearly. The GEN II license plate tells us that a genie resides in the car, a magical being. In the book, Potts is aware of this. In the book, it takes Potts many weeks to rebuild the car, and packages arrive for him every day containing the different parts he's ordered for the restoration. Later, there are knobs on the dashboard that say "Pull" for the wings, or some other gadget. The book was a fantasy Bond book for children, with a gadget-filed car, a colorful villain, a lady with a suggestive name, intrigue, and spies.

[@Hagbard1138]

The montage shows a weeks long restoration. Jeremy's comment, "He's been in there for days!" refers only to the final push to finish the car, in which Caractacus disappeared for several days in an obsessive effort to finish.
