Dinky restoration of Daimler Ambulance No. 253. Toy model cast.

The Daimler Ambulance model was produced by the Dinky company in the years 1954 - 1964. The first units were painted in cream color and had no windshield. On the other hand, the copies from the 1960s had a plastic glass and were painted in white. To display subtitles in your language at the bottom of the movie, please press C on the computer or the three dots on the mobile phone in the movie. The first models also had smooth tires, so the possible replacement of hardened rubber is very simple, as normal O-rings can be used. However, these later models had tires with a tread. In today's movie, I show the renovation of two copies. One from the 1950s and the other from the 1960s. I make new windows for both, as well as full painting and tire replacement. I also made the graphics of the box consistent with the original and printed the packaging in a digital printing house. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on KZbin on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

Kolejna super robota, Paul. Zawsze fascynuje mnie sposób, w jaki odbudowujesz brakujące (lub zepsute) części. W każdym razie, te dwie karetki są teraz absolutnymi przyciągaczami wzroku w gablocie 👍🏼😎 Dzięki wielkie za udostępnienie, przyjacielu, zdecydowane kciuki w górę ode mnie 👍🏼. Bądźcie bezpieczni i zdrowi i kontynuujcie dobrą robotę. Pozdrowienia z Morza Północnego, Paul 😎🚑🚑👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 Another super job, Paul. I'm always fascinated by the way you rebuild missing (or broken) parts. In any case, these two ambulances are now absolute eye-catchers in the display case 👍🏼😎 Thanks for sharing, Mate, a definite thumbs up from me 👍🏼. Stay safe and sound and keep up the good work. Greetings from the North Sea, Paul 😎🚑🚑👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 Wieder eine Superarbeit, Paul. Ich bin immer fasziniert davon, wie du fehlende (oder kaputte) Teile neufertigst. Auf jeden Fall sind diese beiden Ambulanzen nun absolute Hingucker in der Vitrine.👍🏼😎 Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund, von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼. Bleib gesund und munter und mach weiter so. Gruß von der Nordsee, Paul 😎🚑🚑👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠

Thank you for another excellent video Paul. It is so difficult to prevent red paint especially from creeping under masking tape, and you have done a good job.

Superb!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much Leslie

[@frasermartin6728]

I would have been SO tempted to finish them both in the same colour since they both now have glass, and Code3 some ambulance stickers and some identity numbers... and maybe knocked up the back wall of an Emergency Entrance for a hospital, for them to sit on, together! Nice castings though.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

[@quinho4166]

Duas preciosidades...! Parabéns 😊👍😍

[@PaulRestorer]

Muito obrigado

[@carmium]

Gawd, how many of those did we get from relatives back in the day?! They were cheap, homely, and the paint flaked like it was from a water color kit! One comment, though: some of your crosses were a bit of a mess, Paul!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

Next time if you have to make the glass windshield, use a mold release and it will help the pieces slide right out.
