I can imagine this was a lot of work, but it certainly paid off.
I just can't stop staring at the pictures ; I always find some new details.
Some pictures, especially the engine, look so real...- 1

A modest every day car...
But personally, I find this less boring than just another Ferrari, Corvette, Lambo etc...
Like this build ! -
Strange car, but I like that very much !!!
Especially the story behind it : scratchbuild, the upcycling of waste plastic to create such a nice model...
Conngratulations, I couldn't do it. -
Very nice. A quiet simply base, but it finishes the whole thing !

Haha, you take pictures of a real car and make us believe it's a model...?
No seriously ; this is masterclass !!!
Congrats, you can be very proud about this job.
Respect for your skills !๐๐๐- 1

Something completely different. I like such vintage stuff !

Maybe less quantity, but surely quality. Especially the Landy looks great to me.

I like your workshop !

Craftmanship ! The conversion and upgrading of a rather basic plastic kit to a unique detailed masterpiece.

Strange thing... But very nice !!!

And another model that looks like reality !
How do they do it ? Wizards !!! -
So real !!! Almost creepyย ๐
And that background... -
And driven by a Belgian racer !๐ย Seriously, a VERY nice build !!!

Solved !!! The wire was slightly bend, causing loss of tension on the doors. The wire should be perfectly right. It took some time, and care not to cause metal fatigue, but finally it gives the right tension to keep the doors closed, or to get them opened easily. British precision in the seventies...
Thanks for the reactions !

30 minutes ago, stitchdup said:
have you tried the base on it? it might hold the bottom of the doors so they feel tighter. the wear on the right side hinge looks like it could be that way when you zoom in to it
Yes, I know what you mean. I did try, no difference...

I'm restoring a diecast Corgi car.
I stripped and removed the paint. But when reinstalling the doors, they are hanging loose, they don't keep opened or closed. It must have something to do with that coil spring, shaped as an iron wire. But I can't figure it out...
Someone ๐?

Still on my to-do list. Did it include the Coke-can beverage machine ?
-
Masterclass ! This is a contest winner.

For a moment I thought this was a real workshop picture...

I've never seen that van in de tv-series, something I seem to have missed.
Cool van I must admit, worked out well.
Apart from this, I have a question. Does anyone know the type of the helicopter?
I' m looking to build one to combine with the Ferrari.

Thank you all for the reactions.
I already thought it should be a diesel engine. And these have a quiet complicated fuel system.ย
I can move on with that.
