Dinky France-22A-Maserati
See All Restorations
Ideal for restoration. Typical broken windscreen and chrome plated hubs rusted. It did have a driver and was an easy restoration complete with box. There is a rare model with painted seats, but no this one. A new windscreen was fabricated from an orange juice jug but the hubs were cleaned and left unfinished as I may try to get them replated at some time

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.
