    Came out great! They sure don't make modern toy cars with that level of detail. Thanks for leaving all the bloopers in the video. It makes it more realistic. Things don't always go as smooth as some make you believe!!

      Thank you. I always try to show it as it is, it discourages people from getting into the hobby if you paint a false picture of no problem smooth sailing always going right, I think so anyway.

    A beautiful classic die-cast model. 3D printing technology helps take care of the details. Congratulations 👍💪

      It is a lovely shape, and this really was the perfect small job for 3D printing. Thank you very much.

    That's a pretty classy resto, PB. It looks really nice with grey tyres. Good paint combo too. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

    Nice job, Pete - looks very elegant. I think the 'horns' on the bumper were actually fog-lamps rather than horns: the model is probably based on the Mulliner car of 1958, so the horns would have been inboard, behind the small intakes flanking the main grille. An anorak point, no doubt, but I don't get out enough, as I may have said before! Great idea with the tea strainer thing in the ultrasonic - I am forever losing stuff! Your chrome came up a treat.

    • @PBsRetroRestorations
      @PBsRetroRestorations  Před 2 měsíci

      Thank you and you're absolutely right about them being spotlights, I don't know why I ever thought they'd be horns. And it's not an anorak point to me. I wish I could claim the tea strainer idea, but that was actually supplied with the machine! I did think it was just a tea strainer though.

      I think my feeble mind was lumping you all in together which is like saying Australia and New Zealand are the same too, my apologies. I bet the pound shops in Scotland are better than the British ones, we'll see how many of them noticed I said that and wait to be cancelled 😉🤣 Thank you for watching!

    Don’t be so hard on yourself…
    I watch your channel on an 80” huge screen TV….
    I could see that you were having trouble with the front wheels,
    I was laughing a little, just a little…cause I could see the problem you were having…upside down…
    Awesome recreation, love the paint job as well.

      Thank you Lindsay. I spent a lifetime of being too hard on myself, I'm trying to get better at that. I am now freaking out that you can probably see every tiny hair and blemish on your jumbo telly lol. I'm truly glad you got a laugh out of it for whatever reason, I think that's my favourite kind of feedback.
