Dinky restoration of Mercedes Benz 600 Pullman no.128 Toy model cast.

The Mercedes Benz 600 Pullman was Dinky's flagship model produced from 1965 to 1979. In 1965 the Dinky Company featured it on the cover of its catalogue. The model contains the maximum number of gadgets. In addition to opening parts and a driver with passengers, it has turning wheels. I used moulds I had made during other Dinky restorations to recreate the missing parts. The big challenge was to reproduce the colour of the original model. I decided to compare the Mercedes Dinky with a Corgi model. In the early years of production, the Mercedes was packaged in a normal cardboard box and this is what I did. In later years it was sold on a cardboard stand with Blister packaging. Thank you for watching the video, I publish car repair videos on Tuesdays and Saturdays. In the video you can include subtitles in your language with commentary on the activity - press the letter C on your keyboard or three dots on your mobile phone.

I used to have this model when I was a kid. I’m now 70. Nice job. It brought back some fine memories

Cool

Oryginalny pojazd był i jest samochodem luksusowym...
Ten model jest taki sam.
DINKY pomyślał nawet o panelach drzwi. 🤩👍🏼
Co do renowacji...
Świetna robota 👍🏼 zwłaszcza wielowarstwowe malowanie.
Kiedy patrzę na koniec na dwa Mercedesy 600, nie mogę powiedzieć, który z nich bardziej mi się podoba. Oba są znowu piękne 🤩
Cóż mogę powiedzieć... Paul, jestem podekscytowany (ale także pod wrażeniem) Najwyraźniej oba kciuki w górę za to 👍🏼👍🏼
Dzięki za udostępnienie 🙏🏼
Miłego weekendu dla Ciebie i Twojej rodziny, bądźcie cali i zdrowi. Tak trzymaj przyjacielu 😃
Pozdrowienia z miejsca, gdzie stoi mała latarnia morska i kończy się rzeka Łaba.

The original vehicle was and is a luxury car...
This model is just the same.
DINKY even thought of the door panels. 🤩👍🏼
As for the restoration...
Excellent work 👍🏼 especially the, multi-layer paint job.
When I look, at the end, at the two Mercedes 600s, I can't say which one I like better. Both are beautiful again 🤩
What can I say... Paul, I'm thrilled (but also impressed) Clearly, both thumbs up for this 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks a lot for sharing 🙏🏼
Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work, mate 😃
Greetings from where the little lighthouse stands and the Elbe River ends.
😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠
Das Originalfahrzeug war und ist ein Luxusauto...
Dieses Modell ist es genauso.
Sogar an die Türverkleidungen hat man bei DINKY gedacht. 🤩👍🏼
Was die Restaurierung angeht...
Exzellente Arbeit 👍🏼 besonders die, mehrschichtige Lackierung.
Wenn ich mir, am Ende, die beiden Mercedes 600 ansehe, kann ich nicht sagen, welcher mir besser gefällt. Beide sind wieder wunderschön 🤩
Was soll ich sagen... Paul, ich bin begeistert (aber auch beeindruckt) Ganz klar, beide Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼👍🏼
Vielen Dank fürs teilen 🙏🏼
Dir und Deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so, mein Freund 😃
Gruß von dort, wo der kleine Leuchtturm steht und die Elbe zuende geht.

I had the same one, since 1967, but unfortunately lost it a few years ago, must have been stolen from where it stood in the cupboard. I also had it restored.
Beautiful work you have done with this MB600. Wonder what price it should go for now?

[@PaulRestorer]

thank you very much, these models now have quite a high value because they are no longer put up for sale as often as they used to be, it's hard for me to determine the exact price, but it's best to follow online sales

[@user-vv1bd9dz6j]

Прекрасная реставрация! 👍 Безусловно, Dinky лучше чем Corgi. Хотя бы тем, что открывается всё, что должно открываться. За исключением отсутствия люка в крыше, конечно. Непонятно только какой производителями заявлен масштаб моделей?
Wonderful restoration! 👍Of course, Dinky is better than Corgi. At least by the fact that everything that should be opened opens. Except for the lack of a sunroof, of course. It is unclear only what scale of the models is declared by the manufacturers?

[@PaulRestorer]

Спасибо большое, вы правы, я тоже узнал, что все дают масштаб от 1 до 43, но на самом деле эти модели различаются по размеру, поэтому на мой взгляд эта шкала только условная.

What a spectacular custom restoration! So many pieces to address stripping, prepping, and painting! The fiddly, painstaking restoration of the interior must have been a trying worry. Getting the wheels as plum as possible on the axels to roll correctly was another task you handled deftly. After all the careful prepping and extensive paint job, you needed 7 fingers on all three hands to put it all back together again without damaging all your hard work!! You demonstrated great patience in this process. The giant box creation was wonderful! Paul, truly, you are the gold-standard of die-cast restorations on You-Tube...or anywhere else for that matter in my opinion!! Spectacular outcome!! It is always a joy to watch your meticulous attention to detail, and deft, careful processes through all phases of restoration. Congratulations!!
