  • The Corgi company, following the success of the 1968 film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, released a model of the car that featured prominently in the film. This flying car was very much welcomed by children and the company sold a very large number of copies of this model. It was recently re-released due to the 50th anniversary of the film's entry into cinemas. My model was very damaged. It was missing many parts. Because its construction is very complicated, I could not show in the film all the things I add to the model. I concentrated on doing the work that I don't do very often. I also made the box in which this model went on sale in 1969. I thank you for watching the video, I publish videos of car repairs on Tuesdays and Saturdays. In the video you can include subtitles in your language with commentary on the action - press the letter C on your keyboard or three dots on your mobile phone.

    One of my abandoned projects was this car. I made a large scale version out of wood. I took a screen shot of the design from the dvd extras and re created the blueprint. The carving was a lot harder to do and so awkward it wore me down but I know the car from fenders to picnic basket.
    I see the model corgi was similarly difficult. Well done!

    Teraz jest skończony. Ogrom pracy, ale było warto.
    Wspaniale jest widzieć "Chitti chitti bang bang" z powrotem do dawnej świetności. 🤩
    Świetna robota, nie mogę powiedzieć tego inaczej. Paul, jestem podekscytowany, wyraźnie oba kciuki w górę za to 👍🏼 👍🏼

    Corgi... Technology that inspires, then as now. I remember the show when you got the model. I was really looking forward to this restoration 😃
    Now it's done. An immense amount of work but it was worth it.
    It's great to see "Chitti chitti bang bang" back to its former glory. 🤩
    Excellent work, I can't say it any other way. Paul, I'm thrilled, clearly both thumbs up for this 👍🏼 👍🏼

    This was an unusually finicky, multiple part process. Maestro, your patience level in successfully undertaking this project is like Job. I confess the movie, "Citty Chitty Bang Bang" never was a favorite of mine. That said, your final finished project is wonderful. The box you created is a work of art!! Congrats on a job well done!!❤❤

    I still have my corgy chitty chitty bang bang from a child. It's in good condition but not perfect. It doesn't have any missing parts, it's not dented, however some of the orange paint has come off the wings, a small amount of chipping in the paint & the engine cover, has patchy crome work. No box as well. I also have my original corgy batmobile in reasonable condition, considering how much I played with it as a kid, just slightly cracked windshield & a paint job warn out by hitting other cars.
    Excellent restoration, I am enjoying watching your videos very much.

    THIS WAS ESPECIALLY CLOSE TO MY HEART! ONE CHRSTMAS WHEN I WAS A KID, THERE IS A PICTURE OF ME HOLDING THE ORIGINAL BOX IT CAME IN. NOW FOR SOME REASON I LIKE TO WRECK CARS, AND I STOMPED THE ORIGINAL FLAT. AFTER MY DAD FOUND THE PIECES, WELL LETS JUST SAY HE KNEW HOW TO SWING A BELT, AND I CERTAINLY DESERVED IT! YEARS LATER DUE TO GUILT AND MISSING WHAT MY DAD HAD GOTTEN FOR ME, I BOUGHT THE ANNIVERSARY EDTION WHICH I HANDLE WITH KID GLOVES! THANK YOU FOR THIS RESTO!

    Absolutely brilliant. A very complex model and has to be one of the best 'toy cars' ever produced. That was an amazing restoration, particularly the bonnet repair.
    I did get the original model for Christmas back in 69/70? It did survive until my brother gave it away to his mates . I do keep coming across broken examples but I have left them alone because they are such a complex model to restore. Next time I find one it might be on its way to Poland.😅
