Matchbox restoration Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Coupe nr 69 diecast car

This model was made by the Lesney factory in 1969. In my version, Rolls Royce did not have a folding roof, it had crooked wheel axles and a broken window. I have added and installed all these parts in the model. Metallic blue was very difficult to do. It required painting first with silver and then with a blue colored car varnish.

It's good to see these old toy cars being renovated, that windscreen is very hard to do. Lovely job I including the box.

This brings back the memories, I had one of these when I was a kid about 50 years ago 😢😢 Great job!!!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@Marcus_Ramour]

I like the added comments, helps to understand the steps & tools used. I have a lot of old toy cars from the 70's & 80's - you have inspired me to do something with them!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much. Cool

[@railtrolley]

Superb restoration. It's a great model of the Rolls convertible. You are showing the way for restoration of Superfasts. There are spares available for Regular Wheels Matchbox, but almost no parts are made for Superfast. Only for some of the Regular Wheels models that continued into the Superfast range are supplied, and only for body parts. Nothing yet available for the chassis: wheels etc.

W 1971 lub 1972 r dostałem takiego Rollsa (ale w złotym kolorze) od ojca. To był mój pierwszy resorak.

To musiało być nie lada wydarzenie biorąc pod uwagę ówczesne realia. Pozdrawiam serdecznie

@@PaulRestorer Faktycznie było! Drugi był Ford Group 6. Twoje filmy to dla mnie, i pewnie dla wielu, swoista podróż w czasie. Pamiętam większość swoich żelaźniaków, kilka jeszcze mam, w tym Land Rovera Safari, Matrę Simcę Rancho czy Fiata 131 Abarth, wiele, jak AMX Javelin czy Datsun 126X, niestety się zawieruszyły.

I got one of these as a kid but when I pulled it out of the box it was gold instead of blue. Still a good looking car but I would have preferred a blue one like the one on the box.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@craigcaldwell9181]

Nowadays, one would file suit, claiming "False Advertising/Misrepresentation!"

[@eskieman3948]

Sometimes, these 'errors' can be a valuable variation. Depends on the brand of diecast cars, and the number of cars painted in that unexpected color.

[@normanhumphrey9695]

Its just incredible watching you recreate missing or damaged parts. The finished product is outstanding as always. Beautiful work with fantastic results on the Rolls. Take good caare, be well and be safe.

I've been watching your Videos for a while now,and I'm amazed that some of the cars look like they are beyond repair,but somehow you manage to restore to factory new conditions. It must be challenging to "Colour Match" to the original specifications some.of.the models.seem to.have a unique Colour.. Brilliant job

Perfect, paul this is one of your best. What did you use for the window unit ,you said pep, is that perspex?
Take care my friend

[@railtrolley]

It would be PET: Polyethylene terephthalate, clear plastic sheet. Same plastic most soda or bottled water bottles are made from.

[@PaulRestorer]

That's right, it's the same material as for mineral water bottles. I buy them in 0.5 mm thick panels. It forms very nicely when hot. Best wishes
