The code 3 restoration of a playworn Solido BMW 530 into a lookalike BMW 528e, one f my dads old cars. The primary issue with this model is dismantling and then reassembling. There are no rivets so there is always the risk of snapping the base especially with old plastic. I used this casting to make a lookalike of my dads old E28e shark nose five series. Obviously the casting wasn’t exactly the...

A great finish yet again Andy. 👏👏My uncle loved Jaguars and had an XJ6 Coupe 4.2 and later a very rare Daimler Double Six Coupe amongst others. I tried using that Auto Extreme paint when I first started doing resto's and never got on with it? I always found it used to 'bleed back' around the casting edges and never really fully harden but you've got a great result with it here. Looking forward to the next one Andy.👍👍
Thank you Richard. I try to leave model ten days for the paint to harden. It’s the longest part of the process. I’ve considered an oven or air fryer to speed it up. Hence some times I have to do a fill in video if anything goes wrong.
Nice restoration, details and paint job!!
Thank you Joe 👍
Love it Andy ,great work ,brilliant finish ,love it
Thank you Laz. Very much appreciated 👍
Excellent result andy well done mate 👍
Cheers Luke very much appreciated 👍
Most of the real XJ12C models had vinyl roof coverings to disguise the ripples in the steel roof: the two door bodies were not really strong enough, so correctly, it should be a covered top in either black or brown. They were sublime to drive, though, if tricky to get in and out of: you very much sit 'in' an XJ, rather than on it! Looks great in a proper red, Andy. Nicely finished - especially with the doors being such a bugger!
Thank you. I had so much trouble with paint I really couldn’t bring myself to vinyl the roof. Everyone I found on the internet did have a black roof if in red.👍 Thanks for watching and commenting as you always do. Very much appreciated
Excellent Andy, I really like it when you do the base the same colour as the body, grey job.
Thank Buster I more or less stuck to the original here 👍 Thanks for watching and commenting, very much appreciated
That's a beauty 😊😊😊😊
Cheers Mick. A tricky one to do in the end with those doors. 👍
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations you still got it together
Very very nice! 👌
Thank you very much! These are great looking cars 👍
Great work and great video Andy love the outtakes lol
Glad you enjoyed it. I don’t always add the out take mishaps but these ones were easy to include 👍
Very smart restoration àndy ,looks great 👍
Glad you like it. More challenging than I thought this one. Great looking car which is why I choose to do it . 👍
Nice video. Keep up with the great work.
Thanks, will do! Very much appreciated comment 👍
hi how to identifie a dinky toys mk1 transit as all of mine dont have the number on them.
It’s totally different to the Mk2 in shape. This shape in slightly changed form lasted until 1977. Check Google images 👍
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations no what i mean is that i order a rear side door for a mk1 transit dinky toys and doesn't fit. It seems that there is different numbered transit vans and all of mine unlike the one being restored doesn't have any.
@@darrenclarkson6080 sorry for misunderstanding. Are you going n any of the facebook groups such as the die cast modellers community or digital diecast to ask the question? If not I will ask some experts for you
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations its fine i should have been a bit more clearer on what I put.
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations yeah but its only having seen the one here being restored having a model number. That i got a bit curious about mine possibly being fake copies.
Very nice restoration. I had a 1987 gsxr750h, nice bike and a classic sports bike they used to race.
Thank you Jerry. It certainly is a classic bike now and much loved by many. 👍 Thank you for watching and commenting.
Nice transformation Andy - I like that. You must have been tempted to keep it! It looks brilliant.
I was indeed tempted to keep it but a plan was already in motion. 👍
Very smart restoration Andy, looks great 👍
Thank you Martin very much appreciated 👍
I'm really pleased with what you did to this Transit, I knew it'd be in safe hands with you! Great work as usual Andy.👍👍
Yes it was your donated Transit. Did it as soon as I could really since I’d been waiting to do a Mk1. Thank you once again
Good work Andy , these transit vans are like Swiss Army knives…ie many uses
They sure are Kev . Thanks for watching 👍
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations no worries Andy
Very nice model and a great job Andy! 👏👏👏 Congratulations!
Thank you very much 👍
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations You are welcome 🤗
Nice restoration, details and paint job 👌 👍
Thank you Joe👍
Really nice job Andy, everyone loves a Transit Van 👍👍🥇
They do indeed. Thank you Buster 👍
Fantastic restoration andy excellent job mate well done 👍
Cheers Luke. 👍
You could put leds in the headlights. The battery in the back of the car 🔙👌
I have just bought some LEDs to start learning how to do it. So maybe next time. I bought to 1/24th Porsche 911s to have a go 👍
Well done Andy,I also like Transits 😊😊😊😊
Thank you Mick 👍
Great job my friend, Beautiful end resultat
Much appreciated Paul.👍
Some fantastic models there andy great video mate loving the datsun 240z 👍
Cheers Luke 👍
Great selection of castings this month, Andy, I actually watched this a few days ago, but I forgot to leave a comment. The transporter I think has the scammall cab ,any one of the 220 s Andy iam not fussed my friend
Thank you both are on the way to you
🤗👍👌💯
Thank you 👍
@@andysgaragediecastrestorations welcome dear Andy 🤝💯
Nice haul there Andy 👍🏻
Thank you Mark 👍
Hi Andy another great collection there again, that lancia intergrali is another classic I love,,saw a yellow one today too
Cheers Kev 👍
Great presentation Andy👍
Thank you Paul 👍
Age is getting to more than the models Andy! But that's a fair old collection for the month, especially the old Corgi commercials. The sports cars all seemed to be from the one manufacturer - Del Prado was a partwork publisher, now sadly defunct, I think. I had a squirt in two Nissan GTRs over the years - the latest one was scary quick! At 300kmph, you are driving through a letterbox! Handy spares too! Nice one!
Thank you Fraser 👍 love those 90s cars. Scary those GTRs then
Always a pleasure trading with you Andy 😊😊😊😊
Thank you as always it was a pleasure and I hadn’t checked the box to add an element of surprise
Nice work Andy, it turned out great.👍 It's good to do a fairly straight forward restoration every now and then.
It is indeed I messed the paint up on the one that was due to go out. Scrapped the roof on the paint box . Thanks for watching and commenting as always. You may recognise next weeks restoration 👍
lo tuve en mi niñez, lo disfrute mucho, mama me lo compro en Navidad.
Es un gran regalo de Navidad. gracias por ver y comentar. es muy apreciado.
That’s is a great Xmas present to get. Thank you for watching and commenting. It is much appreciated.
Great job Andy 👍🏻
Thank you Mark. It was a pleasure to do this one. 👍
