Classic cars forum & vehicle restoration.

[3xpendable]

I've decided I want a model of every classic I own. I already have an Anglia and an MGB GT (though this is 1:18 scale and i'd like them all the same) so while looking for an Imp model of a suitable colour I came across one on eBay that needed restoration (a repaint basically) which I am hoping to win and then paint up.

Firstly, I was suprised at the market for diecast models that are very tatty. Is it because they are rare or is there a lot of people who actually enjoy restoring model classic vehicles?

Secondly, I think if I win this one and it goes well, I might get some more as I think it would be very motivational to see a shiny bright restored model, especially for my actual car restorations.

Anyone else into fixing up model cars?
