[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@steveherschell4471]

[@larannar123]

I really appreciate that your restoring real vintage toys and not the "fake" ones like so many other channels!!
Also your repair and making of the ladders is amazing work!!!💯🏆🏅

I'm still astounded at the cool boxes you make for these just amazing work. the casting turned out better than factory. very nice job

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much!

Powiedziałbym, że tak, świetne odtworzenie.... Ale w tym przypadku była to prawie nowa produkcja tego modelu. Świetna robota Paul, jestem pod wrażeniem. Jak zawsze, zdecydowanie kciuki w górę za to 👍🏼.
Wielkie dzięki za podzielenie się z nami, przyjaciółko. Życzę Tobie i Twojej rodzinie wspaniałego weekendu i pozostańcie bezpieczni i zdrowi. Pozdrowienia z Morza Północnego, Paul

I would say, great restoration... But in this case it was almost a new production of the model. Great work Paul, I'm impressed. As always, definitely a thumbs up for this 👍🏼.
Thanks so much for sharing mate. Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Greetings from the North Sea, Paul
😎🚒👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪🚒👍🏼🤠
Ich würde ja sagen, tolle Restaurierung... Aber in diesem Fall war es ja fast schon eine Neufertigung des Modells. Tolle Arbeit Paul, ich bin beeindruckt. Wie immer, ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼.
Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund. Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Gruß von der Nordsee, Paul

Many thanks Mick

[@gerardburton3741]

Wonderful restoration. Casting the ladder was a joy to behold. Plus of course the cast is reusable, But I think it might be time to invest in a 3D printer. For the length of time it took for the ladder I think you must have the patience of a saint. Well done.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much, I have a 3D printer. Unfortunately, with such small elements, the quality of the prints is not the best.

[@alantan6255]

Love this video. Being a fire fighter this has special meaning to me. I have a fire truck that was given to me when I was in the hospital in the 70’s and still have it. Needs to be repainted due to all the years I played with it and moving around. Excellent job!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much Alan

[@karsten0023]

This is a very good job again, Paul 👍. I like your restored models. A small tip for repairing such a ladder or pillars of vehicle bodies: The material is suitable for hair clamps, as it is flat and so more like the original, as a round wire.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@The-Observer]

Another beautiful restoration. Having watched a few of your videos now I can confidently say that what you do far exceeds what any other restorer is doing.

[@PaulRestorer]

Cool. Thank you

[@gerhardnigl8253]

This was my first toy and it exists with all parts! The colour is not very good, but I played a lot with it.

[@mikaelabowen5781]

Brilliant! I love hearing that people still have their old toys. Wear and tear is a sign of a much loved toy; a badge of honour worn with pride and dignity.
I, too, still have my first toy cars, some of which are now 75 years old (even the ones given to me new are heading towards 60). All have long since lost their original paint, but all remain complete and treasured. Over the past few years I have been gradually repainting them and returning them to "new".
Nothing saddens me more than seeing toys (or anything!) aged only a couple of years old (or less), that have simply been broken through carelessness or brutality and discarded.

[@gerhardnigl8253]

@@mikaelabowen5781
My parents didn't have much money so the said to me "be care of it!". So I can say that I have all my cars, teddy bears, lego and so on from this time. Some of it like Lego and some cars for example in original boxes. And now, when I look at it, I rememer a wonderful childhood!

[@mikaelabowen5781]

@@gerhardnigl8253 Exactly!!! My situation was very similar - many of my things were second hand and new ones were a real treat. Like you, I too, was told to look after them - and taking care of them never meant I didn't enjoy playing with them. My cars clocked up very high mileages but were never broken. The lesson in how to care for things is a valuable one that is sadly too often not learned nowadays when "throwaway" is the norm.

[@2ahdcat]

I saw this same truck. Beat up and missing wheels at a junk shop. They wanted $10 for it. Of I could find wheels for it? I'd pick it up. Anyway... nice work once again Paul 👍

[@PaulRestorer]

It seems to me that you can buy whole wheels on eBay by buying some scrap because with only tires This is not a problem
