Restoration Abandoned Shelby Cobra

www.crazyrestoration.com/
In this video, Katka asked me to restore a Shelby Cobra 50cc Replica for Natalka. after disassembling the car, I found out that it is not in as bad a condition as I thought, the renovation took a long time, but the result is worth it, watch the video ;)
Thank you:

Its amazing how good everything looks where you didn't apply mud.

Everything looks brand new on it...from the wires, mechanical parts....even the mud looks new. This is not a restoration, it's just cleaning procedure. Congrats for the painter and for being able to put apart and reinstall all the parts on this fancy kart.

it's like you put "liquid mud" in the paint sprayer, and coated the thing and put it in a backyard shed. if i was five i wouldn’t notice, but i'm older than that. a couple ounces of respect for all the work you put in.

[@peterk2455]

Fantastic, that mud was so well sprayed on and it looked so much like it had been sitting in a perfectly formed mud pit. Was that mud specially bought or a home brew?
