Vintage Wooden Toy Car - Restoration & Repair

- I restored this upcycled toy car , made from an old wooden coffin plane and vintage Meccano parts. Enjoy the restoration video !!
This is a large coffin plane that was been upcycled to create this beautiful roadster car. All other parts are old Meccano parts (wheels, steering wheel, headlights, front bumpers, rear bumper). When I first saw this toy , I realized it needed to be restored because it would be a successful restoration project and because it will be a piece to be placed in my collection. But ended up donating it to a little boy. Anyway, a lot of time has been spent on this restoration video to create a nice video that you'll enjoy to watch. I'm really pleased with the results, the restoration gone perfect and I'm happy. Probably this piece is unique in the world because it is handmade, I would have liked to know more about the time when it was created, the age of the parts from which it was built.
I spent almost 4 weeks in this restoration and I spent almost 35 euros in the products that made this restoration to be perfect.
I like to make restoration projects, it's my passion and I'm open to hear your opinions in the comment section. Feel free to write what you think.
So, guys, thanks for watching and hope you'll enjoyed the restoration! ahhhh, and don't forget to subscribe !! Cheers !!

I like to do restorations. it's my passion. feel free to express your opinion, I will read it and answer each one of you. thank you and cheers !!
I always love watching your videos, they make me feel really relaxed and it's always interesting learning about the process, so thank you for making content like this
Glad to hear that and glad you liked it. Thanks 🙏
Best restoration channel ive seen the most i can restore is my pencils🤣
I love your channel! Especially the fact that you don’t put ‘aSmR’ in all your titles... all these restoration channels just being ruined with 4 letters... like-
We get it! There’s no speaking in your video! You already have you TH-cam account as ‘aSmR restoration’ or whatever!
I have very strong feelings on aSmR!
The toy brought joy and so did this video! Great work! RB3
My Father sold you this a year ago, Incredible being able to see it travelled and again worked on another side of the globe. Good job!
True. I bought this from Nick Hollinshead. From 🇬🇧.. glad you liked what I did. Thanks 😊
Nice, that's awesome
😇
@@CoolAgainRestoration you are the best
That's actually pretty frickin cool. TH-cam has this inherent ability to either make the world seem gargantuan and almost endless. Orrr, it can make this planet seem like an itty-bitty, teenie-weenie spec that houses around eight billion humans, and they all live on your street.
This is so cool!!! You aren’t restoring a name brand toy, you are restoring someone’s custom made toy!!!
Yes,and I’m glad I did it 😎👍🏻
The presentation to a child right at the end, clean ending.
Glad you liked it 😇
It looks great. It is interesting to see the different methods you used to restore all the different parts. Parabéns! Cheers from Brazil
Thanks 🙏 cheers to Brazil 🇧🇷
Seria bacana se tivéssemos essa cultura de restaurar, consertar no Brasil. As tecnicas, ferramentas e produtos são disponíveis...mas rapazes r moças não aprendem nada disso ns escola (ensino fundamental) nem nas escolas técnicas e muito menos nos cursos de engenharia...

ПУСТЬ ВАШИ РУКИ НЕ КОГДА НЕ БОЛЕЛИ 😍 ОНИ У ВАС БРИЛЛИАНТОВЫЕ РУКИ👍🏻
I recognize most of those parts as "Meccano" that I had long ago. In the US I think it was called Erector Set. Definitely a 1-off toy.
Thank you very much Frank 😎👍🏻
@@CoolAgainRestoration
Yeah all the metal parts are Meccano from the early 1960s or even earlier and you probably know the wooden body is an old hand plane the wedge would have held the blade
The fenders and flat pieces would have been green originally
@@hodaka1000 Glad you confirmed the body was a wooden hand plane, that was what I thought as you were doing the disassembly.
Thanks for doing my car request! Looks like you’re gonna start slow and easy, so I hope you’ll work on bigger items soon!
I think to make a big car restoration someday 😎
Incredible restoration. I’m a 63 year old retired diesel mechanic and I had no idea wood could be sandblasted. Thanks.
Amazing idea to use an old planer. Thanks to your precise renovation, he has returned to the days of his glory. Thanks friend :) Radek
How clever that someone turned a plane into a car! I loved Meccano as a kid - it was good to see this restoration. :)
Thank you very much 🤗
Where you able to give life to the snails again? Great restoration like always!
Thanks Miguel 👍🏻😎
Cool! Congratulations, your channel is getting people even from other countries like Brazil! Brazilian speaking haha
Thanks Felipeano 😎👍🏻 greetings to Brazil 🇧🇷

У вас золотые руки...

Spasibo bro 😎👍🏻
It wasn't until you tapped out the center when I realized what sort of plane you were talking about. Somebody's dad or grandpa was amazingly handy!~
How lovely to bring it back to life for another child. Perfect !
Many thanks Fiona 🤗

Thank you very much Robin, I really appreciate 🤗
Takes true talent too take old vintage toys like that and make them new again.
Glad you liked it 😊
Любящий отец сделал для сына.Из рубанка.
Скорее это наладили производство из кучи нереализованных рубанков. Дуб всё же.)
Looking at the before and after, what song is going through my mind?
"Oh, you, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, we love you..." 🎶🎵
😅😅😅
🎵”Near, Far, in our motorcar, oh what a happy time we’ll spend! Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, our fine four fendered friend, Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, our fine four fendered friend!…🎶😁
So beautiful toy 🥰
Thanks Marcos
These are so satisfying to me
Glad to hear that 🤗
Love your colour choices on all the restorations, this one was particularly nice.
Thanks Lawrence 👍🏻👍🏻
Great job on this one, it looks really good! I'm always fascinated watching these transformations, but I'm always curious how much time these videos take. You make it look like it's done in a matter of a few hours, but I've done really minor sanding in the past and that ALONE took hours. That'd be my only suggestion on what these videos need, and that's really minor because they are all really good.
Thanks Tyler. So,the restoration I worked one full week to say,but to make the video restoration took me 4 weeks. Every footage need to be calculated
HOLY COW! VERY OLD! GORGEOUS NOW!
It's reaaaally beautiful!!
Glad you liked it 😎👍🏻
I'm a new sub and digging the videos. I spied with my little eyes, that the plugs put into the body weren't the same plugs you made.
I thought someone will say that. It’s the same ones but looks different because when I took out I sanded a little bit and when I changed the angle camera,I reset the white balance and has a lot of pink colour in all that footages.
So cool, we don't spend money on toys for children 😅😜❤️
Love it when you use machine to recreate a new nut and bolt or a new woodwork
AWESOME....!!!!!!
Thanks 😎👍🏻
Muy buen trabajo mi viejo, me gustó mucho
Thanks 🙏
You do such amazing work! I'm really glad your channel is getting more and more views :)
Thanks Sinclair 🤗 i’m Glad too 🤩
First lilke 😊
Good job
Thanks 😊
Apostaría mi jubilación a que ese auto fue hecho con la "caja" de un cepillo de carpintero y piezas del juego conocido (en Argentina) como 'Mecano.' Aplausos para el diseñador de la pieza y gracias a tí por volverlo a la vida.👏🏻👍🏼🇦🇷
Cuando escribí q apostaba por el Mecano, nunca me imaginé que fuese hecho en Inglaterra... y que los bujes de las ruedas fueran de bronce!!! Los dos que yo tenía (del N* 5, los más grandes) venían con bujes de un metal de aleación de color gris. Recuerdo sus llaves de tuercas hechas de chapa y el destornillador que tenía el "mango/empuñadura" con forma de triángulo doblando el mismo acero en el extremo opuesto a la pala.
Amigo... me has hecho retroceder 60 años en el tiempo y conseguiste hacer brotar un par de lágrimas.🙏🏻👏🏻🤞🏼🇦🇷
*Great result.* Glad I went back to watch some of your older videos.
Thanks and glad you came back to see them . Now you can see how I improved from when I started and now . Thanks for that Dan 😊
“I am not satisfied with the results”
So you turn to some mysterious white powder that you most likely found in a brown paper bag?
Meh! It worked didn’t it?
😅😅 true
It’s nice to see history being restored. I would love to do what you do
A real gem of a restoration and truly a magnificent gesture for that little guy....very nice work all around.
Thank you very much 🤗
Another legendary restoration..
That kid's tummy is cute 😊
Thank you very much Markuz 👍🏻😊

This guy restored my childhood
😇
Absolutely perfect. Thank you.
Glad you liked it 😊
It’s an old wood plan made into a car brilliant a good restoration job
Thanks buddy
Now that was so Cool. I don't believe I've ever seen a wooden to like that. Closes I've been to a Wooden Car similar to this is the Wooden race Cars that The Scouts have to carve and sand too get it to be aero dynamic along with making it light enough to fly down the track. Thank you for sharing your Wonderful Passion. I Loved ❤️ ❤️ this Video.
Thanks a lot and glad you liked it 😊
Old world mastery! Love!!!
A very charming little car.
🥰
Wow!!!. Amazing.
Thanks Reuben 🤗

Finally someone uses Oxalic acid to remove stains!! Well done, sir.
Thank you very much Scott 😊
TOP JOB ALL METAL PARTS TURNED OUT WELL
Thanks Peter 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I noticed the Mecanno parts (my elder brother had a set) and also the headlights, these look like the sink plug in my grandmother's bath room. Very nice job.
Thank you very much Maria 😊
The ingenuity of this toy is mind blowing - the transformation is so enjoyable and you are right this toy will bring much joy for years to come.
Thanks buddy
Unbelievable! A job that deserves respect! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I was especially surprised by the way to quickly make wooden plugs.
Thanks a lot my friend ! 🍻🍻🍻
You are amazingly skilled. I'm in awe!

Looks awesome🙂
Thanks Tim 👍🏻
@@CoolAgainRestoration
Welcome🙂
And to think that the persons that originally made this toy are likely long gone. I am sure you made them smile along with the child that received the finished product. Beautifully done.
Thanks again 😇
Love this. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks Claire 🤗🤗
Very nice restoration job indeed but I cannot forget the person who made this toy combining the hand plane and the wonderful Meccano parts...
