    Co za początek weekendu, co za odnowa...👍🏼✌🏼
    Legenda lotnictwa i (wraz ze Spitfire'em) trzon Królewskich Sił Powietrznych 80 lat temu.
    (Jeśli mam być szczery... wywołuje to uśmiech na sercu historyka wojskowości😎).
    Świetna robota, Paul, jestem pod wrażeniem. (Zwłaszcza montaż silnika jest fantastyczny).
    Dziękuję, że się z nami podzieliłeś, przyjacielu.
    Życzę Wam i Waszym rodzinom udanego weekendu i bezpiecznego wypoczynku. Trzymaj się dobrej roboty 😎👍🏼
    Pozdrowienia od zwariowanego staruszka z DIE CAST na wybrzeżu Morza Północnego.
    😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠
    What a start to the weekend, what a restoration...👍🏼✌🏼
    A flying legend and (along with the "Spitfire") the backbone of the Royal Air Force 80 years ago.
    (If I'm honest... It makes a military historian's heart "jump for joy" 😎).
    Great work Paul, I'm impressed. (Especially the installation of the engine is fantastic).
    Thanks so much for sharing, mate.✌🏼
    Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work 😎👍🏼.
    Greetings from the DIE CAST crazy old man on the North Sea shore.
    😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠
    Was für ein Start ins Wochenende, was für eine Restaurierung...👍🏼✌🏼
    Eine fliegende Legende und (zusammen mit der "Spitfire") das Rückgrat der Royal Air Force vor 80 Jahren.
    (Wenn ich ehrlich bin... Da lacht das Herz eines Militärhistorikers😎)
    Tolle Arbeit, Paul, ich bin beeindruckt. (Vor allem der Einbau des Motors ist phantastisch)
    Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund.
    Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so 😎👍🏼
    Gruß vom DIE-CASTverrückten alten Mann an der Nordseeküste.
    😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠

    Oh, how nostalgic! I had a Spitfire when I was child! When turn the propeller with fingers, the motor moves and the propeller continues to rotate!

    IIRC, the slot behind the cockpit was for a thumb-wheel, which, when turned, made a clicking sound intended to emulate the guns firing.

    • @Tengu66
      @Tengu66 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That is exactly right. I used to have one of these as a kid. There was a spring inside that the cog/thumb wheel rubbed against as you turned it, creating the same sort of sound you got when clipping a playing card to your bike wheel.

    I used to have a Dinky Toys Spitfire that actually had a small motor in it from the factory. It used to take a very small battery that was housed under a plastic cover at the rear of the fuselage.

      As a child I had the same model, I think I remember a wheel behind the cockpit that, when rotated, imitated the sounds of the machine guns. Those wheels never did stay up though.

    • @colindytor9248
      @colindytor9248 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@BoyneShark yes the wheel behind the cockpit is like a ratchet and imitates the guns. Mine still works. I think I pulled the wheels off as they just hung low and never stayed up

    Said it before, will say it again, '' Wouldn't believe these restorations if I hadn't seen them with my own eyes''.
    I always try to watch one of these when I get 'internet time'. One day......I will have to have a go, though I am under no illusions, this must take vast amounts of knowledge of how materials behave and which to use, for what, and when, how, why ?

    I used to work opposite meccano, dinky in binns Road Liverpool and used to get the models at low prices from the shop. Still got them in their boxes....Happy days...sad when they closed. They were more models than toys really because of the quality of them.

      @PaulRestorer  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @skullcompco
      @skullcompco 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Paul Restorer I did indeed ......the sad thing was when dinky closed down the people were told by the bosses and they literally just walked out and left everything....for example if someone was eating their lunch in the canteen ..they just upped and left halfway through a sandwich. It was a sad end to a great company......I also knew the press officer for meccano, he told me that when Frank hornbybstarted the business ..and they wrote instruction books for the meccano kits, they would put mistakes in the instructions so that people would have to work out what thebprobl2m was and build it properly.....in hornbys words...it made engineers of the future......we have lost alot when dinky and meccano as was closed. Happy days thank you for the work you do on these. This stuff should not be forgotten.....

    This plane never had a motor. It had a thumb wheel on the top. When it was turned it clicked and was supposed to simulate a machine gun sound. It was sold as a kit. I built it and I used the paint supplied, but it was never really suitable for handling as the paint never really dried hard so it had a lot of fingerprints. The spitfire and Messerschmitt had motors. The stuka had no motor but it had a cap bomb.

    Great memories. Used to have a Spitfire version of this with a motorized propeller. If I remember correctly you started the propeller by flicking it. Wish I’d looked after it better. Is is still possible to still buy these or would it have to be a restoration?

      Way back in the 70s dad did 3 spitfires for myself and 2 brothers with the battery propeller we still have all 3 and with the rego he had I think the last letter as our initial P, A and I. We also have 3 seaking helicopters with battery main rotor

    What a great restoration! I am speechless! I can truly picture myself playing & running with this plane (also making plane noises with my mouth hehe!). Best wishes as always!

    Really beautiful, I noticed when you were fitting the canopy that there were exhaust port on, did you decide it wasn’t the right look? And it incredible that you were even able the fix the box to replicate.

    All of the parts for these Dinky aircraft can be purchased on eBay. There are quite a few people selling all the bits and pieces including cockpit canopies, exhaust stubs, props, the rachet gear for the rear of the canopy and everything else. From the look of the untouched stubs that hold the oleo leg springs It looks like this may have been one of the rarer kit releases of this Hurricane rather than the finished product. Very nice finished model.
