Thank you John very much appreciated 👍

Thank you Fraser , not a lot else you can do with it apart from get the wrong colour. Thanks for your support as always 👍👏

Thank you Ian. This is the before I started backing the boxes with normal A4. I’m glad I took the effort to get a few videos ahead for my holiday. I didn’t want to let subscribers down . Thanks for watching and commenting as always 👍👏

Thank you Thomas. A really satisfying one to do this one. 👍👏

Thanks 👍 Joe very much appreciated your support is. 👏👏

Thank you Mick.👍 much appreciated

Thank you. I know some of the models I restore are probably not that popular. For instance I don’t expect this to be high on everyone’s list. They all need doing though. Having said that overall I’m getting more subscribers than I normally do at the moment. Thanks for watching, commenting and of course subscribing 👍👏👏

Thank you . Another simple but satisfying one to do. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍👏

Thanks mate. It is a great blue to use. Your support is much appreciated 👍👏

Many thanks Luke glad you enjoyed it. 👍👏

Very true Buster. I’ve often started in an easy one to release a quick video and it’s done a U turn on me. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍👏

Thanks , that is a really nice blue I found there and it goes on well. Pity they can’t all be blue 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting 👍👏

I put the model in a plastic bowl outside due to fumes. I then add boiling water to cover it and then pour the caustic soda power over the top. I don’t measure it but I would guess two big table spoons heaped. I then let it fizz for a few minutes. In that time I will lift the model out with pliers to see how it’s doing. I may scrape some paint off. Don’t leave it in longer than required. Hope that helps, it is shown in some of my earlier videos. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Thank you Ian. Me friend was very happy with it. Thanks for watching and commenting, very much appreciated 👍

That’s a funny one Graham 😂😂😂

@@andysgaragediecastrestorations she was young and didn't know it was joke the mechanic told her. She was telling customers.

Thank you David for your comment. I never thought of this as a potential ramp. The rear of the trailer is littered with doors for storage when you get a close look. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Thanks for that tip Ian. I do keep trying various ways. 👍

Good idea Ian. I do have a few tyres that are beyond useable in the parts box. I have been looking at making my own too. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Yeah I think I recovered an obvious previous restoration and had to rake it at face value. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

​@@andysgaragediecastrestorationsThe vac form interior on mine that I didn't notice was brittle, broken & beyond repair

Thank you Paul. I’ve a few simple ones coming up since I’m on holiday and had to get ahead 👍 Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Thank you very much 👍

Pleasure John. Thank you for watching and commenting 👍👏

I wondered it he did. They are so fiddly since I did watch others do these and decided to go my own way. Thanks for watching and commenting Ian

@@andysgaragediecastrestorations your way worked out just as well

I think it’s 50/50 on wether viewers like it or not. If I get another one I will do the roof like I did the Fiat X19

Thank you for watching and your comment 👍 very much appreciated

Yeah they give it a lift. I don’t generally like doing long thin stripes but these went on ok. The other way would have been mask and paint by hand or spray. I didn’t have time for that. I don’t think a white marker pen would have worked on this dark red either. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Thank you Richard very much appreciated 👍

Thank you Andrew for watching and your comment 👍

Thank you, it really is a nice red from the Colour It range. Definitely better than the Auto Extreme red gloss I also use at times. Thanks for watching and commenting

It’s always very satisfying 👍

Thank you Mark 👍

@@andysgaragediecastrestorations you're welcome 😊

Thank you for watching and commenting 👍

Fraser mentioned backing the inner box with paper and it certainly stiffens it up considerably, especially now I’m on medium sized boxes. When I get back I’ve a video to do on box making for the Budgie AA truck. And the ERF platform truck I did. I need to upgrade windows software and print on A3 for that to work as a video 👍 thanks for watching

Thank you very much Joe. A few simple ones coming up as I’m on holiday 👍

Cheers Luke that crimson red goes on nicely 👍

Thank you Fraser. These are really satisfying to do. It could only be Esso once I knew the original colour. Before I knew that it was going to be a code 3 Andy’s Garage van.

If that's all the excuse you need, I'd ask if it's done yet? And if not, bloody get on with it! I think I have some 'Martin Road & Racing' custom decals spare from my Aston Martin DB4 Equipe-build a few years back, a Trojan (of which I have a spare!) might be a good idea!

I will get around to it 👍

Thank you Ian. We are enjoying our time in Texas 👍

Hi Paul. It did cross my mind to do the mud guards in black at one point. I was short on time though. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Thank you Mick 👍

Cheers Mike very much appreciated. Thanks for watching 👍

That’s a good idea if I can get enough of them. 👍 Thanks for watching

No problem. Just a simple one since I had to get 3 videos ahead. So a few simple ones to come then try and get some more complicated ones back in the que. thanks for watching and commenting

Thank you Buster. Very much appreciated comment. Thanks for watching 👍

That’s interesting to know. I could have done a decal and cut it to shape. Easier to use a pen though. That’s great it’s in that good a condition 👍 thanks for watching and commenting

Thank you Mark it was a lovely one to do. 👍

@@andysgaragediecastrestorations you're welcome 😊

Thank you, it’s great when they come out as expected. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Yeah an excellent one to do and that Simniz AA yellow paint goes n easy compared to others I’ve used. Cheers Luke.
