Restore Your Vintage Car
Restoration of any kind is an exceptionally difficult and time consuming job. It certainly does have benefits though. The restoration of a vintage car demands plenty of commitment and perseverance. It is a long task that could take years to complete so you certainly must have a lot of staying power. This is the type of job that is perfect for a small group or a pair of friends to do together. Having more hands could help the job significantly as it will achieve more in far less time. There is a lot involved in the restoration of vintage cars but it is not without rewards.
When it comes to replacing or repairing parts for your vintage car, seek out a place that stores old cars or the parts from them. There are many places like this that specialize in the collection of cars when they are disposed of. This is always a good place to get started in your search for parts or components related to the type of car you are trying to restore. Do a Google search for those that are located in your area. Call around and ask if they have anything that matches the make, year and model of your old car. In many cases you will be able to have items shipped if they are outside of your local area.
If you are very new to car restoration then perhaps you would be interested in having a professional restoration company do it for you or help you out with certain tasks or repairs. This type of service can become quite costly so shop around for the best price possible. Some of them will only agree if they are taking on the whole job, not just part of it, so keep this in mind.
Do not make the mistake of cutting corners when restoring a vintage car. Doing everything the cheapest way may not be the best idea. Not only do you want the car to look great when it’s finished, you also want it to work properly. Use quality parts that are designed for use in that type of vehicle. It could save you a lot of trouble and repair costs later. It also does not hurt to look up some helpful tips online for dealing with things like rust removal. You can discover plenty of ways to save time while working faster with an online search.
Try to keep everything as original as possible. There may be some parts used on the car that are not as old as the car is but when it comes to most things, paint being one of them, you need to match the era. If you use new paint only found on models from this decade, it will greatly rob your vintage car of the effect you wish to have. Check out restoration magazines and websites during this process. They will assist you greatly as you go. When restoring your vintage car it is essential that you do it correctly in order to retain the value and the significance of the vehicle.

Does anyone know where i can get one of these a vintage roudabout ???
it was probably made around the 1950's, it has 2 seats and you use the handles and push them forward and then pull yourself around with them. Its only small and can be put anywhere, it just lifts and moves etc. Made of lightweight metal - the one i saw was painted in thick red and white stripes! I cant find one anywhere online, nothing even similar. Someone MUST know what im talking about, and now im desperate to get my hands on one!!!!!! Thanks x
I think this site has pictures of what you mean.

I've also just taken a look at a collector's group for these toys, and a 'restorable' example of this item is apparently worth at least £500! ($1000)

If you still want one, the item is known as either a MOBO Carousel, or a MOBO Merry Go Round.
All the best with your search..
