    The badge on the radiator was illuminated by a small bulb, you could always tell it was a Wolseley coming down the road at night , also they had a distinct exhaust 'tone', there was also a Riley version that was more equipped , both makes often came in a 'two tone' paint job...

    G'day from Cuxhaven 👋🏻
    A Woolsley... By the shape of the grille, I almost thought it was an early Holden. (The shape is quite similar 😜)
    The colour of the model is called "sky"...
    Well, if you're out on the North Sea in winter, in rough seas, you might have this face colour🤣 but I've never seen a pale green sky either....
    I have also done the installation of an interior, but not on a classic 😉
    Great work Marty, I'm thrilled. Definitely a thumbs up from me for that. 👍🏻
    (BTW... poor "Graham" and his "invention"...🤣👍🏼)
    Maybe you should keep KEVIN off the internet 😂
    Thanks a lot for sharing 🙏🏼
    Have a bonza week to you and your family and stay safe and sound.

For removing old paint off the wheels, I've had great luck with Super Clean. It was especially great on the #21 Commercial Milk Float van. Super Clean removed all sorts of paint that was splattered on the plastic parts without damaging the plastic

    Hi, Marty! Glad you are back here in the UA-cam.
    For using the DOT-4 (yeah, that's the right one) You could just dunk the whole base with wheels into it and wait a bit to let it do its thing instead of trying to rub off the paint with a cotton bud. Works much better this way and doesn't harm the plastic nor the metal parts.

    Your videos are always a good time. "Sky" was indeed a pale-green RAF undersides color in WWII. Humbrol made a match to it, too. Also, I'm not the only viewer who noticed that the word etched into the interior piece's mold is SUNBEAM, a pretty specific clue. All the best.

    • @lancerevell5979
      @lancerevell5979 2 роки тому +3

      Yep, I've used a lot of the Sky paint for undersides of early WWII Spitfires, Hurricanes and others, when doing styrene models. Also used postwar by the Royal Navy and Canadian Navy aircraft. It's a bit greener than Imperial Japanese Navy gray-green.
