  • G'Day Viewers! This week is a DOUBLE MAKEOVER! I restore the original 252 Rover 2000 and it's replacement 322 Rally equivalent. This has made for a longer video, but I hope it's entertaining enough to keep you going!
    I have a new video at least every second Friday at 9:15am ESPBT and I’d love to see you back again! I can’t always promise gold standard restorations, but I’ll always try to make it interesting!
    You can email me at pbsretrorestorations@gmail.com

    I’m on Instagram too. Sometimes. @pbsretrorestorations

    Lovely jobs, right out of the top drawer! Your red/rally car now has a more pleasing roof line than the blue..... that's excellent work. You're right; I love 'em! 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻

      Thank you. I'm a bit surprised at how good the rally car roof came out in the end. Thank you for the kind words.

    I've done two of these myself - a 'stock' version representing an old schoolchum's Dad's car and a Code3 special representing an actual works entry Monte Carlo rally car, from the Poland start in 1965, in its own little diorama. Nice toys to work on though I have yet to find a cropped-window Transolite car, mint & boxed or otherwise, in which the rear window is not cracked! I think if I come across a Golden Jacks car, the roof will go in favour of a Webasto folding sunroof lookalike.
    Terrific recovery on the Rally Car, Peter, and you are right about BlackSquare: really quality products - I got them to produce the correct decals for my white Monte Rover.
    Both cars turned out beautifully considering how awful they both were! Congratulations!

      I just really like the shape of these Rovers. I'd like to find a golden jacks one, but they always seem to be in terrible shape. A sliding roof is a 110% better idea than the 'glass' roof look. Thank you very much.

    Great work PB, I've a tip for you if you have an airbrush, you might know it but if you mix some red ink into a gloss clear you don't need much spray light coats and you should have a candy like colour, you can do it with blue ink as well.👍😀

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  3 місяці тому +2

      Thank You John! Wow, it's really funny you mention that. I used that technique on the Corvette in my very first video and as I'm working on another one for my upcoming 4th Anniversary Video, I thought I'd use the ink method again. But four years have fried my brain and I just dropped the ink in the airbrush and couldn't work out why it was running off like water. I completely forgot you have to put it in clear until you reminded me right now. Special shout out for you lol.

    they look great, great work on that bluddy roof. :) good thing it's white now, though. but with zinc one gotta stop somewhere. :) but, still. ^^
    the purple looks like Revell enamel paint to me. I didn't know it could be so tough... XD
    love the blue, too. it could work well as a spectraflame replacement methinks.

    Those are both winners, Peter. You did a good job on both of them. Didn't the rally version, come with a little kangaroo? Or was that a different set? I also noticed the Dodge and Ram emblems being displayed. Tomorrow I am going to spend a few hours in New Hamburg, the home of Moparfest. I will drop into the auto parts store and see what I can scrounge for you in the way of stickers.

    • @PBsRetroRestorations

      Thank you Gerry. The Kangaroo came with the Hillman Hunter, I'm still eating kinder eggs trying to get one. I wouldn't know which way to turn at a US Chrysler show. I'd read about them in Mopar Action and the like, they always looked amazing.

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  3 місяці тому +1

      That would be a POSCA PCF 350 Silver Brush Pen. I got mine from Officeworks for just under $10.00. I think I've mentioned this before but having a Starlet as a profile pic marks you as an individual of taste and culture. Mrs. PB bought one new in '97 until we lost it in an accident. Replaced it with another one and lost it in another rear ender.
