    Znów świetna robota, Paweł. 😜👍🏼
    Naprawa zderzaka jest rewelacyjna. Nie widać już żadnych uszkodzeń (jakby nigdy ich nie było 😃).
    Dzięki za udostępnienie, Paweł, 🙏🏼 zdecydowanie kciuki ode mnie za to 👍🏼
    Miłego weekendu dla ciebie i twojej rodziny i pozostań bezpieczny i zdrowy. Trzymaj się dobrej roboty mój przyjacielu.
    Pozdrowienia z DCcoB nad jesiennym deszczowym Morzem Północnym.

    Well done again, Paul. 😜👍🏼
    The repair of the bumper is sensational. There's no damage to be seen anymore (as if it never existed 😃).
    Thanks so much for sharing, Paul, 🙏🏼 definitely a thumbs up from me for this 👍🏼
    Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work, mate.
    Greetings from the DCcoB on the autumn rainy North Sea.

    Wiedermal eine tolle Arbeit, Paul. 😜👍🏼
    Die Reparatur der Stoßstange ist sensationell. Eine Beschädigung ist nicht mehr zu erkennen (als hätte es sie nie gegeben 😃)
    Vielen Dank fürs teilen, Paul, 🙏🏼 von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼
    Dir und Deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so, mein Freund.
    Gruß vom DCcoB an der herbstlich verregneten Nordsee.

    Paul the miracle worker! What a piece of junk and now the bumpers repaired and even the windows look fantastic.
    I noticed you examining the engine insert. Yes, the intake trumpets cant inwards like that -- it's the natural angle of the intake ports on the small-block V-8 without an intake manifold.
    That would have been an expensive car in real life -- it's an original 1963 C2 Corvette Sting Ray coupe, with the split rear window.
    Bravo!

    Very interesting model , I didn’t know much about Mettoy because Corgi is so famous. Mettoy (= metal toys ) was founded in Britain in 34 by 2 germans Ullmann and Katz fleeing the
    regime . In 54 they founded a factory in Wales to produce their Corgi toys range . They picked up the name Corgi some say because it was the local breed of dogs but another version says its because Corgis were the favorite dogs of the Queen. Their 56 models were the first with rubber tyres and plastic windows.
    The Mettoy range was close to the early Meccano’s and their models ( planes , cars , airports, bikes ) are amaizing for these times

      It´s a good tip, but you have to see which lacquer you are going to apply. Some lacquers may "eat" the decals away.

    Than is a 63 Corvette. I’m sure you mean the model was made in 67. The only year Chevrolet manufactured the Corvette with the split-window is 1963. The designer loved it. The safety industry... not so much... it blocked the already limited view of the rear.
