Good Luck with the restoration. Antico Mondo had a reserve of
2500 Euro on the same complete model in 2018, and it did not
sell, six month later the Pook sells similar for 18K, crazy
world

Last Dec's Pook & Pook auction was nuts.

Speaking of the December Auction Scott, do you have that
beautiful Doll Whip ride working? Would love to see a video.

Good memory, Charlie.
Actually that Whip Around is in pieces wait on my restoration
skills to improve :o
Mine is nowhere near as nice as some we've seen recently.

With the JB Weld set, time to mix up some paint.
One coat on, we'll see if it really needs any more.

Making up a flag pole extension.
Turned up a M3 x 0.5 brass with a 2.2 mm socket for the flag
itself.
Also needed one additional canopy support. Originals are right
at 1/8" in diameter.
Painted all pieces with Humbrol Brass Metallic 54.
