bringing a Prime back from the dead

[VERT]

Thought I would restore an one of my junker Primes. This is what I started with.


then after I replaced alot of parts and painted the Dicast and re chromed his bits he ended up as a G2 Prime. Think he looks alot better.


sorry about the quality of the photos. What do you think? Still need to find some real hands for him.

Impressive! The blue looks a tad light, but maybe it's the lighting in the photo. Should be a navy blue though (but quite as "almost purply" as the reissues). I really like how you managed to restore the windows, smokestacks and chrome. Nice! Heh... you're a regular Quintesson now.

Thanks The blue is light cause its from a G2 Prime.

that a great job man ..... how did you found all the wheel and other parts ! must of taken a lot of searching for junk parts...

[VERT]

No it was easy. Over the years I have collected a ton of Prime Junkers for parts. Did all that just yesterday.

That is an absolutely superb effort Vert , you've truly breathed a new lease on life into a figure that had very clearly seen better days! - Bloody well done man.
