Beautiful transformation as usual Bob. The work you put in really show in the final model, better than when it came out of the factory. I felt the tension of removing the masking tape along with you and it wasnt me who’d put 3 days work in. I can see from this how difficult two tone work is but when you get results like this its worth it. This model would stand out in the finest of collections. Well done indeed Bob. All the best Col 👍
A very successful restoration. You put a beautiful varnish.
Beaut restoration job Bob, she turned out beautiful👍
Well done Bob. Nicely done
Wow quite the change. Looks great
Awesome job dude!!
Excellent job thanks

Really like this resto bob very good 👏
Another good un Bob keep it up,thanks
Great video Bob !!
Always great work
I am glad your back
Don't leave it too long next time.
Cheers Garry
Garry Hills hi mate, yeah I’ll try not to but I can only do the videos if I got the models to start with, also I need the decent weather for spraying and sometimes I gotta wait for new parts 😬. As it happens I’m ok for a couple more videos because of the generous chap in Australia who’s donated me some more models 👍
Enjoyed the video mate and the car came up a treat !
Another superb restoration, Bob! Yeah, masking always makes me nervous, too. I am amazed that Corgi put so much detail and engineering into their vehicles, and left the interiors of some just a plain vacuuformed piece.
rdk_metalmelter _ yes it’s strange that they skimped on the interiors?
That restoration is too, too, sweet! You can take a little bit of the tackiness off your masking tape, by running it over your pants real quick. It should still stick down enough to mask but not so well, that it pulls off the paint underneath.
Hi Bob, l'm still playing catch up! Go to an auto paint shop like autoquip or the paint centre in Newton and get a roll of fine line tape it will save a lot of hassle. When you mask up cover the whole car as you have but leave enough space to do the final mask with the fine line. When you have finished painting let the paint flash off and then remove the fine line. When pulling off the fine line pull slightly downwards/upwards towards the freshly painted section or pull directly back towards the remaining tape. Best thing to do is try it out on a scrapper so you can see the result. Cheers mate!
John Davey thanks mate but I got some fine Tamiya masking tape now as you’ll see in the later videos 👍
Well done great resto Bob, i have the other colour scheme of Black top half ,and Silver sides to my Bentley. Rob.
A tough one Bob but in the end...."Beautiful"
Beautiful.
“I’m trying to make a decent video here, for you lot” ... haha, love it! Go Bob!
I just love Corgi diecast cars the suspension setups are Awesome 😄😄Now i want some of my own
Lol nice one Bob
Nice job, your right two tone is a PITA to do. Im doing one of these at the minute, my jewelled lights are all missing so im having to buy new ones.
She’s a beauty Bob, nice restro. Your pretty good on doing two tone paint jobs. I especially like how you reproduce parts and use AC glue with baking soda powder for strengthening hand made parts, I’m still. learning new techniques, this also comes in handy being a model railroader. Thank you Bob, enjoy your videos, take care buddy😎👍👍👍🚗 from the Eastern Shore of Maryland🦀🌾🍺🍺🍺
The wife is watching corrie. I am watching bob willis. I win hands down. Great resto bob good to have you back.
Same here mate, my missus is too but I gotta watch it cause I got no choice, she don't like watching my videos cause she See's enough of me already 😂
Excellent work bob , looks great.
I have one of those to do its the black and silver one .
Didn't no about the back lights coming of the body like that ,so thanks for that.
I am not keen on doing two tone paint . Masking is very fiddly, I've just finished dinky coach took me a good hour to mask it .
Great video bob.
martin dare yes the masking is the secret, more time spent on that the better the finish will be 👍
@@BobWilliscorgi Hello Bob, I "sincerely" enjoy ALL your videos. This is one of my favorite Corgi models.
If you ever do another 1961 Bentley 224 Continental Sport Saloon...would you PLEASE do it in black over silver body...or...solid black body? It would be SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Kindest regards, Ben
DUYGU KAYHAN IS A SKANK hi mate yes I’ll definitely do the Black and Silver if I manage to get hold of another one 👍
@@BobWilliscorgi OK & THANKS for the reply.
Your channel is GREAT!!!!
Kindest regards, Ben
Hi Bob, very Nice restoration, and with the new masking tape you Will have a very Sharp overlap, Im using it myself. Now seems to have missed what your are using for the Chrome Parts, as looking great!
Couple of suggestions, get some Tamiya masking tape, abot 3/8th of an inch wide. Use this for masking the paint joint line then put ordinary masking tape over that but not to the very edge. The ordinary masking tape edge isnt straight and doesnt do contours very well due to its thickness whereas the Tamiya tape does. Peel the tape off at 45 degrees away from the paint edge. If you can, peel the tape off before the paint sets hard. This will lessen any 'ridge' where the two colours meet.
Think about getting an airbrush and compressor. They're easy to use and with rattle cans 5 quid a pop, the airbrush will soon pay for itself. Ive got this Bentley in my loft box, played with it for hours and was one of my favourite corgi's. Nice work.
Gonads1259 yes I’ve got some 10mm Tamiya tape coming but I won’t be getting into the airbrush scene as I’ve not got the space for it 😬
You should try the Tamiya maskingtape.......great job by the way !!
bartverhaagen thanks mate, funny enough I was looking at some of that on EBay yesterday afternoon 👍
Hi great video may I ask what you used for the chrome paint?
Thanks , the chrome paint is available from eBay and called a Molotow paint pen.
Bob I use masking tape called frogtape i think it’s the best I used . Keep up the great work Regards Dave
David Yeates yes I heard that’s good but I’ve ordered some Tamiya tape to try for now 👍
I have one of these and plan to consult Bentley paint references before repainting mine.
Indeed u excelled Marty here , your restoration are better than Marty's . If u just improve on camera angles and better organise ur workplace it would enhance ur work n channel ,👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍, well Bentley is my favourite car
Sameer Baig thanks mate, I’m glad you enjoy watching, I also watch Marty but his camera angles seem to be more assorted as he gets a lot of help from his family members on the filming side of things whereas I’m on my own and I can only try my best. If I spent too long stop starting to try and get lots of different scenes too much it would take me ages to finish the video and the restoration. 😉👍
@@BobWilliscorgi Yes , that's true , well I think you are more hard worker , keep it up . Your restoration involves more typical models than others and that's what I like the most , difficult and challenging
Keep it up👍👍👏👏🙂
Thanks Bob, very nice end result. Difficult to believe Corgi would spend so much time detailing, suspension, steering, jewels, opening boot and a two colour paint, yet leave us with that nasty red cheap vacuum firmed blood red interior. I suppose the red might go better with a silver and white car.🆒🏁
Nicely done! Think the only thing that might have made the 2 tone paint a bit difficult was maybe the quality of the masking tape itself? Other than that, I couldn't see any colour bleed or anything?
Peter Warner yes you’re right mate, I think it’s about time I invested in some decent masking tape 👍
sorry Bob, its just me, and \i do love your resto's thank you.
paul hill that’s fine mate, I haven’t taken any offence 😄 👍 I’m just saying I’m a plain old Devon lad.
@@BobWilliscorgi On one of my trips to England, I visited Devon, and sampled your wonderful scrumpy. once... my goodness thats one powerful drink... loved it.
hi bob can you tell me where you get your caustic soda from and also your rivets
andrew moore Hi mate, you can get caustic soda from most DIY shops , B&Q, Trago Mills etc, but the rivets l am currently using are no longer available from anywhere as the seller I used to get them from has now retired so I will soon have to get from Model Supplies.
The link is in the description 👍
Nice Bob Brian Thailand
Nice! I did one in metallic green as it was a poor paint job from the factory (second ?) I have two mint unboxed ones in both colours
Met the man who designed this Marcel Van Cleemput at a toy fair once and thanked him
Hi Bob I’m restoring the same car but I need tyres ,do you know where I can get them from . I love watching your videos your doing a great job . Lee
motoman601 in description mate 👍
Wish this model was available in 1:64 I like keeping same scale
dont mean to be pedantic, but caustic soda is not acid, its alkalinic,, very strong. same effect but on the other side of the ph neutral line.
paul hill yes mate I have been told this before but I’m no chemistry expert and also I’m from Devon, so I keep it simple for people and refer to it as acid, if it burns the skin, eyes, and not healthy to breathe in then to me it’s no better than acid.
Thanks for the information though and thanks for watching the videos 👍😊
Video dobrý 😀, ale kombinace barev se mi vůbec nelibi 👎🏼
Díky kamaráde, jen jsem si myslel, že by neuškodilo zkusit něco jiného, ale některé barvy nebudou vyhovovat vkusu každého. 😉👍
