- The restoration of a heavily play worn Corgi Land Rover 109 WB.
Brought back from the dead really this one. The wheels and axles had to be replaced in the end.
I did checker plate decals but the scale is just a little too small for them to be really effective.
I have never messaged before but I feel obliged so here we go ,Well done Andy I have received your benevolent gift and will treasure it .
No problem Oscar. One of my better ones 👍
A great save Andy. Who would of thought the window unit would clean up like that? Excellent repairs to the front bumper too. 👏👍
Yes that window in any bodies books was a write off. Thks for watching and commenting 👍
That's a nice resto,Andy.
Thank you Terry. Worst start position I have tackled.👍
That was a complete basket case! I had a similar one - it had been chromed, so I left the pitting and used it as 'distress' in the final result - it is the matt beige one I have submitted, with the sheep and the shepherd! Might have been tempted to get rid of the while front bumper, and fashion a new on to fit: the solid bumper is wrong anyway as there should be a space behind it where it attaches to the main chassis legs. If you drill too deep at the front post, the top of a cut-down, plastic push-pin makes an excellent substitute for a Capstan Winch, if you wrap a bit of stout thread round it...
Brilliant save though, Andy, and looks the part with really shiny paint setting off the black details. Noice custom..
Thanks Fraser. I did spot on other models the casting is not exactly correct. I picked another up at Stafford for next year 👍
Nice restoration, details and paint job 👌 👍
Thank you Joe👍

Another great job Andy but is it just me or does the sound on this video sound sort of crackly and not very crisp
It’s not you Sid. It sounded a bit crackly on my iPad. I’ve bought new microphones too, so now I have two on the go. Sometimes it happens and sometimes doesn’t even w
Hen I’m editing. What do you watch on ? TV, pad etc. thanks for watching and commenting. I did get a lot of satisfaction from returning this one to life.

Before resorting to the caustic. A soak in boiling water with some limescale remover will work wonders.
Thank you that’s a good tip 👍
