    That's a very nice resto. You should have put the Ghia badge on the front as that seems to be the version you have. It was withdrawn early one due to a licensing issue. I've done a couple of different colour versions, plain white, red underbody and blue too. Thanks for doing these, I think your castings are most excellent.

    A superb complex restoration. You show that it is not always possible to make extremely damaged parts, like the front light unit, look absolutely perfect, but that, with care and improvisation, very acceptable results can be achieved and a rare model brought back to life. Thank you Paul.

    Cóż, co mogę powiedzieć...
    Odbudowa? To prawie nowy budynek. Nigdy wcześniej nie widziałem, żeby zawieszenie modelu samochodu było naprawiane 👁️👁️👍🏼.
    Świetna robota Paul, jestem zachwycony. Zdecydowanie kciuki w górę ode mnie za to. 👍🏼
    Bardzo dziękuję za podzielenie się. Miłego weekendu i szczęśliwego sezonu adwentowego dla Ciebie i Twojej rodziny 🕯️

    Well, what can I say...
    Restoration? That's almost a new build. I've never seen a suspension repaired on a model car before.👁️👁️👍🏼
    Great work Paul, I'm thrilled. Definitely a thumbs up from me for this. 👍🏼
    Thank you so much for sharing. Have a nice weekend and a reflective Advent season to you and your family.🕯️

    Restaurierung? Das ist ja schon fast ein Neubau. Ich hab noch nie gesehen wie bei einem Modellauto eine Radaufhängung repariert wird.👁️👁️👍🏼
    Tolle Arbeit, Paul, ich bin begeistert. Von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür. 👍🏼

    Hi Paul,
    You’ve done an excellent job on this! This is my very favourite Corgi model. They’re probably rare because I have over 20 of them! I have very early castings exactly the same as the one you have restored and some of the later ones. You can tell them apart from the Ghia badge on the underside. Only the very early ones have that. Corgi used the Ghia badge without permission, and had to blank it out on the later models. I also have quite a few examples of the metallic green Mangusta that Corgi made with Wizzwheels.
    A few points to note. The front wheels are actually smaller than the rear wheels, and the original tyres were different on the front than the ones on the rear. All the original tyres said ‘Corgi Toys’ on the sidewalls. The original box has a vacuum-formed yellow insert that the body and chassis sit in. I have a few mint and boxed examples of both the blue/white model and the metallic green model. I also have a few rough ones that need restoration. You should sell those decals, because I would definitely buy some from you.
    Once again, you’ve done an excellent job on this one. Definitely my favourite one.

    First rate work, enjoyed the making up of the wheels. I wonder if a simple fabricated flat floor with wheels and axles, so the backbone chassis, engine and suspension ending in disc brakes could be displayed on axle stands next to the car. However, I realise away from restoration, so thats not the point. Thank you for the excellent work, always look forward to watching.
