Whip Creamer Clean-Up

 I treated myself to a nice redline Whip Creamer from 1969.

Not complete but dandy nonetheless for a tenner.

What a car! 


I made a new engine rotor, a little window blister and gave the whole thing a going-over with a pink Sharpie.

Whipped into shape, see what you think.

    1. Thanks. It's part of the blister from the super glue pack I get!

    Another excellent restoration from the Die-cast Master.

  5. Great job on the paintwork, almost Spectraflame! You really should buy a reissue model and whip the canopy off it. The final test is whether the rotor spins when you blow in the slot at the rear! Eh? Eh? Bill

    1. Thanks! You really are never happy! My rotor is glued down! I may just cream whip a canopy off a new version, yep.
