The models are suited on grounds of her construction method (bases are plugged and not mostly riveted) rather well for restoring or doing alterations. However, therefore are also far opened manipulations door and gate.

For my rebuildings or restorations I take of course only the models which had her best time already far behind themselves. Also some which had broken pillars were already present.

The axes from 0.5 mm of feather wire can be relatively simply directed. Hubcaps and tyres become from partial donators "recycles". I produce the warning beacons to me of old disposable lighters myself. The decals are wet sliding pictures from well sorted model construction shop or even made ones.

First the car bodies are released very completely from the coats of paint and colour leftovers (thinner) and degreases (acetone) to varnish them then with an simple airbrush gun anew. Mostly I use in addition "Revell" varnish, these, however, mixed.
