Volkwagen Breakdown Truck from 1967. Restoration of Corgi model no. 490.

The presented Volkswagen Breakdown Truck No. 490 was produced by Corgi in 1967. Like all cars, it had interesting functions and was very popular among buyers. I managed to buy the model at a flea market. It was incomplete. The previous owner had already opened this model, so the glass and cockpit were missing. I managed to copy the missing parts based on borrowed ones from another collector. I brought this car back to show condition. As usual, I also made copies of the box in which this model was packed in the video. Thank you for watching the video, I publish car repair videos on Tuesdays and Saturdays. You can turn on subtitles in your language with commentary on the activity in the video.

Another great restoration and quite comprehensive too. At first glance, the original model may have looked in reasonable condition, but in reality, most of the model was missing, and you did that extremely well.

Thank you very much

Restauro eccellente, Paul. Condizioni iniziali disastrose, ma l'hai salvato. Complimenti per l'accuratezza dei dettagli. La cassetta degli attrezzi è fantastica ed è stata incredibile la tua tecnica per ricostruirla da zero ! ! Ancora una volta ribadisco: questo è il migliore canale di restauri di automodelli ! Complimenti !

Czy to jeszcze renowacja, czy już nowy budynek? 🤔 Poza ciałem właściwie nie zostało nic. A więc moja osobista atrakcja: Nowa produkcja wyposażenia wnętrz, narzędzi, opon i części szklanych... 🤩👍🏼 Laweta VW zawsze była jednym z moich ulubionych modeli Corgi (Niestety zbyt drogie jak na ówczesny budżet "małego Paula"...) Paweł, jestem zachwycony, zdecydowanie trzymam kciuki 👍🏼 👍🏼 Dziękuję za udostępnienie 🙏🏼 i tak trzymaj przyjacielu 😉 Życzę miłego weekendu Tobie i Twojej rodzinie, bądźcie zdrowi i zdrowi. Pozdrowienia ze słonecznego końca Łaby, czyli latarni morskiej. 😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 Is this still a resto or is it already a new build? 🤔 Apart from the body, there was actually nothing left. So, my personal highlight: The new production of interior, tools, tires and glass parts... 🤩👍🏼 The VW tow truck has always been one of my favorite Corgi models (Unfortunately too expensive for "little Paul's" budget at the time...) Paul, I'm thrilled, definitely both thumbs up for it 👍🏼 👍🏼 Thanks so much for sharing 🙏🏼 and keep it up, mate 😉 Have a nice weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Greetings from the sunny lighthouse end of the Elbe river. 😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 Ist das noch eine Restaurierung, oder schon ein Neubau? 🤔 Außer der Karosserie war eigentlich nichts mehr vorhanden. Also, mein persönliches Highlight: Die Neufertigung von Interieur, Werkzeug, Reifen und Glasteilen... 🤩👍🏼 Der VW Abschleppwagen war immer eins meiner Lieblingsmodelle von Corgi (Damals leider zu teuer für das Budget des "kleinen Paul"...) Paul, ich bin begeistert, ganz klar beide Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼 👍🏼 Vielen Dank fürs teilen 🙏🏼 und mach weiter so, mein Freund 😉 Dir und Deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Gruß vom sonnigen Leuchtturmende der Elbe. 😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠

[@PaulRestorer]

Vielen Dank Paul

[@joramamodellbau3987]

Die Ausgangsposition des Abschleppwagens von VW sah bemitleidenswert aus. Das Ergebnis der Restaurierung ist ein Highlight. Tolles Modell an dem wieder alles vorhanden ist inklusive der Autoscheiben. Toll lackiert. Exzellent! Gruß, Joachim Pozycja wyjściowa lawety VW wyglądała żałośnie. Wynik renowacji jest atrakcją. Świetny model, który ma wszystko, łącznie z szybami samochodu. Pięknie pomalowane. Doskonały! Pozdrawiam, Joachim

I envy you the silicon work - it is really brilliant. Those replacement parts were sweet! Quite a bit of clean-up, but well worth it. I have never seen a real one of these - I wonder if it would actually work as a breakdown truck, with so little counterweight over the front axle..?

Brilliant as always. I have one in exactly the same condition which is on the 'To do' list. I also have a white one in very good condition with the trailer and a Maserati F1 racing car. Do you have a Corgi Race Car trailer? They only came in Gift Sets, never sold separately and can be hard to find . Finally, what paint did you use? It was a good finish.
