Corgi Volkswagen T1 Custom project "Occasional bus". Toy model cast.

I bought a Volkswagen T 1 for spare parts. However, I decided to save this valuable 1960 model. It was originally sold as a service vehicle for racing cars. It also formed a gift set with a trailer and a racer. Many parts of this Volkswagen were quickly lost and a rebuild in the original was impossible. I created my design based on the iconic Volkswagen. I also made a box based on the Corgi. I thank you for watching the video, I publish car repair videos 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.

Great idea, just needs a vintage beer logo on the sides now 😎

[@kyriakos7179]

Thinking the same,like a Löwenbräu with the rampant lion.Matches the blue colours of Bavaria as well.Bravo Paul!💙

[@steventopping106]

@@kyriakos7179 Yep!

[@birdie399]

It took me a long time to realise what the vehicle was for. You have restored a model that was ready for the trash can. A fantastic beer van. Thanks for the video.

Były dwa modele Corgi, które "mały Paul" chciał mieć w tamtych czasach, VW laweta i Landrover.
Nigdy ich nie dostał...
Dziś "mały Paul" jest już starszym mężczyzną...
I jest szczęśliwy, gdy znów widzi te perełki 🤩
Pomysł z "piwną ciężarówką" jest genialny 👍🏼🤩 Dla mnie to jeden z najwspanialszych projektów, jakie kiedykolwiek miałeś na stole warsztatowym. Ale wisienką na torcie jest "oryginalne" opakowanie Corgi (niestandardowe). Powiedziałbym... JOU, dobra robota 😃
Najwyraźniej oba kciuki w górę ode mnie za to 👍🏼👍🏼 Dzięki za udostępnienie 🙏🏼
Miłego weekendu i błogosławionych Zielonych Świąt dla Ciebie i Twojej rodziny. Bądź bezpieczny i zdrowy i kontynuuj dobrą pracę, mój przyjacielu 😉
Pozdrowienia z latarni morskiej na końcu Łaby.

There were two Corgi models that "little Paul" wanted back then, the V-dub tow truck and the Landrover.
He never got them...
Today, "little Paul" is an old man...
And is happy when he sees these gems again 🤩
The idea with the "beer truck" is brilliant 👍🏼🤩 For me, it's one of the greatest projects you've ever had on the workbench. The icing on the cake though is the "original" Corgi (custom) packaging. Would say... JOU, well done 😃
Clearly both thumbs up from me for this 👍🏼👍🏼 Thanks so much for sharing 🙏🏼
Have a lovely weekend and a blessed Pentecost to you and your family. Stay safe and sound and keep up the good work, mate 😉
Greetings from the lighthouse end of the Elbe River.

Es gab zwei Corgi Modelle, die der "kleine Paul" damals haben wollte, den VW Abschleppwagen und den Landrover.
Er hat sie nie bekommen...
Heute ist der "kleine Paul" ein alter Mann...
Und freut sich, wenn er diese Schmuckstücke wiedersieht 🤩
Die Idee mit dem "Biertruck" ist brillant 👍🏼🤩 Für mich, ist es eines der tollsten Projekte die du je auf der Werkbank hattest. Das Tüpfelchen auf dem I ist jedoch die "originale" Corgi (custom) Verpackung. Würde sagen... JOU, gut gemacht 😃
Von mir ganz klar beide Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼👍🏼 Vielen Dank fürs teilen 🙏🏼
Dir und Deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und ein gesegnetes Pfingstfest. Bleib gesund und munter und mach weiter so, mein Freund 😉
Gruß vom Leuchtturmende der Elbe.

Cześć Paul. Bardzo miło, jeśli wykonałeś tę renowację. Ale chyba została mi jeszcze taśma szerokości 5 cm, również spryskana na niebiesko. Wytnij kształt dachu, ramy drzwi oraz wsporniki tylnego dachu. I przykleiłem go do szklanego dachu. Ale to nie jest mój projekt. Na szczęście każdy robi to tak, jak lubi najbardziej. To jest najlepsze w naszym hobby. Wesołych Świąt Wielkanocnych Pawle. Pozdrowienia Jan

This is so cool! Here in Canada, Volkswagen trucks are _very_ rare. I have been paying attention to such things since about the mid-1980s, and I have only ever seen one on the road. That vehicle was being used by a local dealership, and so it may not have been sold, rather just a special import for advertising and promotional purposes.

[@ArmouryTerrain]

You always do a great job, although with this one I feel that the barrels are too shiny and plastic looking. Perhaps a silver or steel paint job would have helped? Also the clear plastic cover just seems poorly designed. Adding supports and a roll bar behind the cab would make it look like the front doors could open, also some sort of thing to designate a door or hatch for loading the barrels.
Regardless of this, it is still a fantastic looking job.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@trevorchambers1812]

Superb job! Nice to see your conventional restorations but this is beyond that - an imaginative re-working. Dismiss any criticism of the details - you have created a "toy" that may have come straight out of the drawing board at Corgi or indeed the kind of model the French Dinky factory may have created. I would have craved this aged 8!
