DINKY AND CORGI and other model car restorations

Dinky

J163 Austin Atlantic

106

This model was badly over painted and windscreen frame bent. Once the paint had been stripped there was some chipping to the bodywork and casting marks. However the rest was quite sound and worthy of a restoration. The original colors were light blue, red trim and cream hubs. The one thing that I found interesting was the dashboard that was quite detailed and resembled the original model very well. My shaky hands show quite well on the detail work but a satisfactory result. PS Base plate to be finished with clear coat
