Today I am renewing two London taxis. The main character of the film is Dinky's Austin taxi produced in 1973. For comparison, I also show the restoration of a taxi of the same model from the Corgi company produced in 1977. Both models are black, classic for this type of taxi. The Corgi model is on a scale of 1 to 36 and is slightly larger than the Dinky model. The Dinky model door had broken upper hinge pins. I made new ones from 1.6 mm thick steel wire. Both cars needed thorough cleaning and painting. In the Dinky taxi, I also replaced the glass, which was cracked, with a glass made by vacuum thermoforming. To make both models more attractive, I also made decals related to The Beatles. Corgi released a whole batch of cars with various decals related to this team. I also show what the original boxes for these taxis looked like. My boxes are made of 250 gram cardboard and printed in a digital printing house. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on Tuesdays and Saturdays. You can turn on and off the subtitles in your language in the video.
