Latest Restoration in Progress: Dinky France 575 - Tracteur Panhard SCNF
Previous RestorationAll Restorations

Light Blue which means a probable repaint, home made canopy in same color, open both ends, broken tow hook, and hardened tires. Restore to this will bring it back to original colors and logos. After strip down further damage was revealed to the mudguards on the tractor, these may be more difficult to restore....... So I fabricated a wire form and drilled a small hole on the chassis to located it and bonded it in place with JB Weld, once it had set I wrapped it with aluminum foil coated in JB Weld. It will take a bit of filing and reshaping before it is ready for a respray. Next a 3D printed canopy and decals.

noimage noimage Remember those toys cars from your childhood, or perhaps your fathers or grandfathers toys. They are very collectable now even in poor condition. I have been restoring them to give them a new lease of life using basic tools. I am sharing some of my best tips and showing some of the restorations to help you do the same. The collections includes Dinky, Corgi and rare makes such as Toby Toys, Gilco, Gaity, Kemlow, Londontoy etc. Browse the Collection, view the catalogues, see the box and decal templates box reproductions Compare models in the extensive catalogue research page.
