Honeymoon car??
I was so excited to find this Vintage 70's-80's Barbie Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible for £1.50 in one of my Charity Shop haunts! Made in Hong Kong by Zima it is marked 'Classic Convertible Custom made' on the trunk. It is basically all there - even the cardboard dashboard indicators that you can't see in these pics and the hood ornament (often broken or missing) The trunk lifts up for storing luggage! All it required was a bit of TLC:
I used nail varnish to remove what looked like sticker or glue residue on the hood, super glue gel to fix the windshield down and re-attach one side of the back bumper. I also laminated the dashboard card to keep it safe from damage and put the whole car through the car wash (using some oxi-action in-wash stain remover). I'm super happy with this find as it will be the perfect car for my Wedding Couple to drive off to their first night together as a married couple!
