    very nice Pete, not seen that casting before the vents do look pretty cool well done on that rescue 👍👍👍

    Great restoration Pete. You can get mini G clamps (jewellery) to re~attach corgi hubs. Cheers Michael

    Looks amazing. There are some great looking Corgi models of this era. I sometimes with I wasn’t so hung up on 1/64 scale but that’s what I’ve always worked with and that’s what I’ve got in my humongous to do pile so I’m having to stick with what I know 😅

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Andrew. The 1/43 are easier to work on that's for sure.

    'Flaw-reed' would be the closest to correct pronunciation, je pense! Always like these Renaults for some reason - and the Simca 1000 Coupé Corgi did later. Nicely detailed casting with the engine vents in the rear wings and the centre-brace for the suspension. Quite a leap forward to go with the additional plastics. Nice red! Nice detailing!

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank You, I recall you pronouncing it correctly for me in the Tavern, and I tried to remember 😔😂

  • @martindaredare
    @martindaredare 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Excellent restoration Peter, looking good,with the hubs when you put them back lightly twist the hub in your fingers on the end of the axle, and you should feel it locate on the spline then you can apply pressure and it should push on a lot easier. All the best Martin

    Very smart little thing, PB; she looks an absolute treat 👏🏻👍🏻👌🏻
    Once youve cracked open the bottom, they're no longer 'original', so I don't see any harm in adding little aesthetic enhancements...... I do. Anyhoo, that's my argument and I'm sticking with it.
    I'm now on Plan D (iiia) [version 6] of my quest to find a way of improving the cracked windscreen pieces.......slight success so far but not worth the cost/effort. Just waiting for the next duff one to turn up before I try my latest wizard wheeze 🤓 Some day, I shall achieve success and be world famous in Dereham......

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank You. The plastic windows tend to be the most expensive spare part to buy, and they tend to be shiz. Good luck with your plans for global success, one day you may be bigger than the Dereham Windmill (I went on Wikipedia, couldn't see you on there)

    In after everyone else:
    looks great, the lighter red looks much better than the overpainted hue. :) the rear screen looks like someone tried to break it with a scissors. good thing they eventually stopped... considering the abuse I was amazed the tyres were still there. guess you're right, and they are replacements.
