  • The Corgi De Tomaso Mangusta Ghia model was produced by Meetoy only in 1969. It seems to me that the complexity of production and the number of details meant that this model was withdrawn. To display subtitles in your language at the bottom of the movie, please press C on the computer or the three dots on the mobile phone in the movie. This is an amazing 1:43 scale car that comes with a fold-out chassis for the first time. It was sold in a special package which showed the entire chassis with the engine arranged separately on the shelf below. Now the Corgi subsidiary in China has produced a replica of this famous car following the model from 1969. My model was very dilapidated, but as it is very rare, I decided to restore it to its greatness. It was missing four tires, two rims, had a torn antenna, broken suspension, and it was completely damaged. I did all the restoration work. I also added the box as it was sold in 1969. Unfortunately, I was not able to make the inner drawpiece, because it was made of plastic. That's why I simulated a similar inner box made of cardboard. The raw footage lasted for hours, I tried to shorten the film as much as I could, in the end I'm presenting the best 38 minutes. The amount of work that has been done on this car has been so great that get ready to watch the wonderful restoration for a long time. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on TH-cam on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

    A superb complex restoration. You show that it is not always possible to make extremely damaged parts, like the front light unit, look absolutely perfect, but that, with care and improvisation, very acceptable results can be achieved and a rare model brought back to life. Thank you Paul.

    Hi Paul,
    You’ve done an excellent job on this! This is my very favourite Corgi model. They’re probably rare because I have over 20 of them! I have very early castings exactly the same as the one you have restored and some of the later ones. You can tell them apart from the Ghia badge on the underside. Only the very early ones have that. Corgi used the Ghia badge without permission, and had to blank it out on the later models. I also have quite a few examples of the metallic green Mangusta that Corgi made with Wizzwheels.
    A few points to note. The front wheels are actually smaller than the rear wheels, and the original tyres were different on the front than the ones on the rear. All the original tyres said ‘Corgi Toys’ on the sidewalls. The original box has a vacuum-formed yellow insert that the body and chassis sit in. I have a few mint and boxed examples of both the blue/white model and the metallic green model. I also have a few rough ones that need restoration. You should sell those decals, because I would definitely buy some from you.
    Once again, you’ve done an excellent job on this one. Definitely my favourite one.

    Very interesting effort and the only video I can find on restoring this model. I'm particularly interested in the job you did attaching the makeshift antenna. Why did you use sanitary silicone instead of cyanoacrylate glue to attach the aerial? Also, what is the white powder you sprinkled on the join after it was affixed?

    • @PaulRestorer
      @PaulRestorer  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you very much . silicone and is always easily removable and does not damage the varnish. while the antenna must have some kind of flexibility, that's why I didn't use cyanoacrylate glue. the powder that is added to the cyanoacrylate glue is baking soda. She have. accelerating and reinforcing properties of the adhesive reaction.

    To remove paint from plastic, and metal, it's easy to use brake fluid for the car. And it will not damage the plastic.
    'Paint' the fluid on, and let it sit for some minutes. The paint bubbles up, and you can wipe it off with some paper towel.
    P.S. don't get it on, something you have painted.
