- Today we restore the badly rusted Pet 4032 to it's former glory. My desire is to bring it back to the condition it was in when it was being used in the schools.

RavenWolf Retro Tech brings you new vintage tech videos regularly. We currently have about half a dozen videos in various states of completion, including Amiga 2000 and 4000 restorations, A Pet-4032 in desperate need of a full restoration, an SX-64, and much more!
At RavenWolf Retro Tech we restore and explore vintage technology from Back in the Day! Now that we are moved into the new shop, the frequency of videos is increasing. I’ll keep putting out videos as I can, but I promise to focus on higher quality videos that don’t waste your time over frequent, low effort projects.

Enjoying this series - thank you! I took delivery of one of these (German made European model) today! Thankfully it looks in better shape but will still need work.
That's quite a transformation, looks so much better now. I think you should leave the scratch, as it would show if it was patched and some patina on these old machines gives them a bit of character.
Thanks, I agree.
Came for the thing, stayed for the stuff.
Really great job! I would leave the scratches. It gives the PET character!
I appreciate that Frank. I think that is what I will do!
@@RavenWolfRetroTech was just thinking, perhaps just a touch of clear nail polish to protect the metal.
I have painted or touched everything that is metal. The cover and top cover are plastic. It almost looks like a plastic layer with a fiberglass interior but I am not certain.
Another great restoration video, thanks :-) I look forward to the next episode of your PET4032. And BTW great job..
Thanks so much Simon!
I think you should leave the little scratch on the cover gives it character rather than looking brand new
Thanks Kevin! I think that is exactly what I am going to do. Rather than "Like New" it will be "Like it was" when it was part of the Alameda school system.
Awesome work and video!! I'm looking forward towards your next video! Thanks for sharing
Thanks Rudy! I am dying to get it running now!
Looks great!
Thank you!
If you happen to know anyone who has a spare left shift button for his Commodore Pet I know a guy who's looking for one...
Lol yeah. There is supposed to be one coming but it keeps getting hung up. I did get the label recently though so the shift key may turn up soon.
@@RavenWolfRetroTech I might have to rehab my pet like this. Looks amazing. Well done!
West Coast Customs What a legend you are!
Yeah Stefan, it can be crazy. Canada packages are even worse. Happily the CRTC chips came yesterday instead. Originally they were tracking as the 5th, then the 3rd and they came on the 1st so better than I feared.
