As always, a masterpiece of restoration 👍👍

Personally, I wish you would make a video showing us just how you "aged" your models before miraculously "restoring" them. Now that, would be more interesting

Just throw it in oven cleaner or fairy power spray, also bleach + water mix will mess up the acrylic / chrome paint

Nice job on replacing the missing door 👍

Bit of advice for the future, plastic and white diecast alloy (the alloy that most of these toy cars are made of, which is aluminium and zinc), does not rust.

@@jimmccormick6091I apologize in advanced, for this lengthy post but I think it’s important to know. first off, the only things that should show rust is the screws keeping this thing together, but even that is doubtful, because the area the screws were found was still an untouched pretty red paint. Is it any wonder he didn’t display the screws in the disassembly assortment? The material the actual body of the car wouldn’t and couldn’t rust because it’s made of a pot metal called zamac which an alloy of soft metals mixed with zinc and magnesium, etc. Soft metals don’t rust they patina, and this zamac, although will show signs of pitting, again, will not rust. It oxidizes. Showing stubborn hard powdering that’s virtually hard to get rid of without sanding, scouring and plating, even then pitting is still obvious before body filler and paint. But a restore such as this alleged one, need to be plated with zinc, copper, or chrome to help stop further oxidation and cover any further pits. Also, this isn’t an old car nor is it a collectible, per se. This is what’s called a “manufactured collectible”. Where the only thing making this a collectible is the words on the package, though no where near worth more than what it originally paid for. No matter the age. For example: if you bought this particular collectible for $20 its price, at best, will either stay the same or go up between $1 to $5, depending on how old it’d be. That’s a big “IF”, too. Because this car would have to be 100 years old to get any where near the $1 to $5 profit range. Because items that say “Collectible” on them aren’t rare. Hence the name, “Manufactured collectible”. That’s why you’d see such a low profit increase in them after a century because they may not be as common, but they wouldn’t be rare. Real collectibles never have this word on them or their packaging.

@@jimmccormick6091 Correction... at 10 dollars each,

Clearly the 'finished' car is a different model - the inside of the right hand door is obviously original and not the replacement made in the video! Nice try but ultimately disappointing

@josemariaferriazorin9930

I'm afraid you are wrong about the inside of the right hand door. I could agree other arguments, but the inside of the right hand door is exactly as it was reconstructed

I'll run you through the process... 1. Buy a mint diecast scale model 2. Use model paints to artificially age the model 3. Film your self cleaning all the crap you just put on the model 4. Publish vid on KZread and pretend your really good at mending things

Siempre me pregunto, como hacen para conseguir tantos carros así de dañados? Osea no es común ver tantos así de dañados en la basura. Tiene gente que se los consigue? Todos tienen que ser así de dañados? Será a propósito que los dañan?

Excellent Work ! Bravo !

So exactly how does plastic and zinc become rusty? I forget.

Have you not thought about using heat fusion on the small parts i.E using a battery the same principle as they use on vehicles panels spot welding

Some old models, box in mint conditions and never used nor opened, actually may be worth 250-400€ (300-470$). SURELY no-one will worth more than that unless it's signed by Senna, Schumacher, Ferrari himself, or other big champions, preferably dead.

What a brilliant job, it beats me how you have the patience for doing this, i noticed the shut lines on the bonnet anc boot very perfect before the restoration, the other thing I noticed was the top of the can of your paint stripper needs the same attension, great job and great video.

Why did you only paint the body ? The rest (engine, interior, chassis...) should have been painted too. It would be much more realistic. It's something you can do, as for the wheels with spoked rims, they need to be changed. According to me, it would have been a real masterpiece and not just a good restoration.

so still waiting to see the 2000 dollar car 🤣

so much trouble for a model you can buy new at the toy store for 18€

Who bought for that price? Lol

Your title is misleading and inaccurate. That model was never worth $900, even new. Other than the paint job on the body, there wasn't much else done. Don't mistake my criticism for being negative. You did an excellent job!!! The fab work was great, too. I just think the title of your video was misleading. Keep up the excellent work though!

A really beautiful restoration. I noticed the red paint had a bit of a orange peal to it. I know you could have given it a smoother high gloss, but I suspect you did it this way to match the toy manufacturers paint look?

2000 are you having a laugh more like 50 max

You have little idea about painting.

I have this same Burago model ca. 1985. $2000??? 😂

I was amused by the painting the car with the red paint with the tiny spray gun. Such drama! Question, does your mom know what you're doing when you say you're at work?

The real skill is getting them into that crappy 'state' in the first place. As for $2000... I think not. That's about two too many zeros...
