Here They Come...Driving Down The Street...
Monkeemobile Reborn!
Here's a Corgi Monkeemobile I restored this weekend. The car, new tires and new stickers were all sourced on eBay. Krylon White primer and Cherry Red gloss paint. Engine resprayed with Rustoleum American Accents metallic silver.
To be done: minor touchups, coat of gloss to protect the paint and stickers, source a Micky figure (who, I assume, is inside the Clarksville station at the moment waiting for the Last Train...)
Enjoy! ^.^

I dunno... I like the version with the band figures in it, because it looks more "Alive" and fun. It must be "Mickey" who's leaning out the back seat, waving to the miniature crowds, as he was such a Showman.
I must confess I was such a goofy kid in 1967, I ran out to the front yard of the house and sat on the fence waiting for the Monkeemobile to come charging up Landis street. It was the last line in the song, "We may be comin' to your town" that got me all excited.
The never showed up, naturally.

So did you touch up the roof with Liquid Paper?
Very boss. The Monkees was probably my favorite show on UHF TV when I was a lad of tender years.

I have one that looks as bad if not worse than the before picture. The one I have for tires are melted on the bottom I didn't know they could be removed and replaced. I've had that car similar to the condition in the before picture. Sent so I was about 85 years old. I'm not sure if it's in with my hot wheels take these or upstairs on a shelf with some G.I. Joe stop. I sold a lot of Corgi Toys on eBay a few years ago, but it was one of the ones I didn't bother listing because of the condition. Plus, it's one of the first little toy cars. I had that I remember. If there's other old toys, he or she were looking for, you might want to make me a list in case I've got some of them.
