Wow Jason, total transformation, another very fine job. I love seeing what you do with all of them but seeing stuff that was rough when I sent it to you, looking brand new is fantastic.

Well done, Jason. I made a UV chamber out of an old peanut can. It is foil lined inside and it reflects the UV light better. I give my windscreens at least two coats of floor polish. ven more if there are deep scratches that won't sand out.

This is a BEAUTIFUL restoration, Jason! That red is like magic!

That was quite the transformation and the method used on the yellowing plastic worked like a dream, much faster than the sunlight method. Another awesome job Jason.👏

The UV method really did a nice job on the clear parts and roof! Thanks for sharing this.

Great restoration Jason!!! Roof cleaned up nicely, I like the new uv trick. Red paint and rechromed interior came out very well. Another casting from my childhood, saved in your more than capable hands.

great red, looks better than the original. unless that one has bleached out on well-played models... quite possible. the first generation of this casting is somehow rare on german flea markets, the most you find here has side pipes and is either red, or yellow with fantasy sponsor prints. but I think the last version was resurrected for the Matchbox jubilee series a while ago for a short run.

Great results and useful info about restoring the white hood section. I have the later wide body one in my collection which is a real beast!

Very cool. I had the blue one as a kid. And the yellow re-tooled one as a teen. 🙌

Nice wirk, my man! Thanks for sharing. Watching from Florida.
I have a love hate relationship with this model. It looks nothing like the original car it is based on, which drives me mad. But it reminds me of my childhood, which I like. I don’t know if you have seen my convertible version with modified arches?
