Peugeot 404 Sedan. Dinky Toys No. 536. Full restoration. Made in France. Die-cast model.

The Peugeot 404 model was manufactured in France by the Dinky company. Production of the model began in 1960. First it was a Sedan. In 1962, this model was modified by adding an opening sunroof. The model also had a roof rack with skis and a one-wheeled trailer. Later, Dinky introduced the variant model in various versions. My packaging comes from the 533 model and was adapted for the 536 model. I also repaired the missing tires and sunroof. I had nowhere to borrow a roof rack to copy, so I made my version from PLA and ABS plastic. Thank you for watching the video, I publish car repair videos on Tuesdays and Saturdays. You can turn on subtitles in your language with commentary on the activity in the video.

„Bonjour Monsieur”... 😃
Świetny model i doskonała renowacja. Moja osobista atrakcja: naprawa szyberdachu i wykonanie bagażnika dachowego.
Brawo, jestem zachwycony 🤩
Oczywiście, dwa kciuki w górę 👍🏼 👍🏼
Dziękuję za udostępnienie 🙏🏼 i tak trzymaj przyjacielu 😉
Życzę miłego tygodnia Tobie i Twojej rodzinie, bądźcie zdrowi i pogodni.

Hi Paul, It is amazing how much that car looks like a British Morris Oxford saloon from the 60/70s. Another triumph in restoration.

Vielen Dank

[@teebodk3917]

Another superb restoration!
I've never seen this model before, which is surprising, considering that it's one of the most iconic French cars of the 60s and made by Dinky France, so one would expect them to be very common. I do, however, have one of the Break versions from Atlas.
The roof-rack, skis, sunroof and trailer are so typical for models of this era, when Dinky and Corgi were constantly competing on new inventions to attract the attention of their young customers. Other models came with golf sets, suitcases, picnic tables and figures... and of course these small parts always got lost after 5 minutes, so I'm not all surprised you were unable to borrow these parts for your model... demonstrating how important it is that you always look for such extras at fleamarkets, where the sellers often have no idea what they are.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@256087]

Good job. I got one 55 years ago and I still have it. The model with the skis rack went with a small monowheel trailer and a set of luggages. The narrow bars alongside the car was paint in chrome.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

I normally love your restorations, but this one just does not do it for me. I am sure that it is historically correct, but my childhood memories of these says that it needs deep cherry seats and a beige stripe down either side.

Liar! The Peugeot 404 model was a real car and not made by Dinky. I should know. My dad drove us all over Europe in Peugeot 404's. To the the south of France, up snowy passes in Austria, to Lake Garda in Italy. If this was a real model, I would be on the back seat.
