      I was lucky enough to grow up in the mid-80s when people were selling their Gerry Anderson toys from this era in steam fairs & car boot sales. I could always spot a Gerry Anderson design, even from shows I hadn't seen (the jet air car from Joe 90,for example)! Loved this design.

    Never realized how much I could truly enjoy watching a box be made. Great restoration!
    I am an only child who grew up in a rural area and my parents and I moved about 80 miles away in 1971 when I was six. I vaguely remembered watching a couple of episodes of Captain Scarlet, but no one in my new area had ever heard of the show (different TV stations and programs). Parents were no help, so I actually thought I had imagined the show until the 1990's when the internet became a thing.

      No you never imagined it. Watched all the Gerry Anderson series as a kid from Thunderbirds to UFO and Space 1999. Even had a single with the theme to Fireball XL5 and many of the annuals. Kids don't know what they are missing these days! I am about the same age and we moved about a lot at the time so sadly a lot of my old Dinky toys went missing (went to about 4 different schools one year) . Worth a fortune now so wish we had stayed put.

    Great stuff. Wish I'd kept all my Dinky toys. They did a load of the vehicles of sci fi tv stuff of the late 60's and 70's. Of course, they weren't cheap because of the quality and because unusually for toys, were made to last. Thanks for uploading... very therapeutic!!

    Great restoration, as always. I still have my original from Christmas, 1968. My Grandmother got it for me. Mum and Dad got me the SPV and MSV. I was obsessed with the Captain Scarlet TV show. I was five and a bit at the time. I could never understand, though, why this model had a mechanism to make a 'jet engine' noise, when in the show, the SPC (Spectrum Patrol Car) just sounded like a normal vehicle.

    I was bought that model brand new as something like a 7 year old. That was more than 50 years ago now. I loved it for the rich autumnal metallic red. It was one of my favourite toys but I wouldn't have a clue what my mother did to become of it? Maybe I'll now ask her? Now there's a blessing :) I've often thought about it since and how I wished I could reimagine it. Thanks to this video then now we can. It's an excellent work of art to restore the model to what appears as pristine condition. It also lays to rest my curiosity against once again wishing to own an example. For me I'd stick to a modern day slot car referencing the advances in material science and precision engineering on any day of the week. That's just me, mind. This model certainly did once have a strong place in my heart.

      Yes from what I remember the only other one was Straker's car from UFO which my cousin owned. I owned the UFO interceptor but always wanted the UFO mobile. Managed to buy a diecast model of one about 10 years ago made by "Product Enterprises". Far better detail than Dinky, then again you get 21st century production techniques and quality. Hard to find now without paying a fortune on Ebay. They make many different models from Gerry Anderson series if anyone is interested.

    Po raz kolejny model, którego nie znałem.
    Tam, gdzie mieszkałam jako dziecko, modele DINKY były raczej nieznane.
    Bardzo dobra renowacja, mój drogi Pawle. Muszę pamiętać o "procesie spawania na zimno", osiąga on bajeczne rezultaty. Jasne kciuki w górę ode mnie za to 👍🏼.
    Dziękuję za podzielenie się, mój przyjacielu.
    Życzę Tobie i Twojej rodzinie wspaniałego weekendu i pozostańcie bezpieczni i zdrowi. Kontynuujcie dobrą pracę.
    Pozdrowienia z Cuxhaven, Paul

    You always surprise me...👁️👁️😁
    Once again a model that I didn't know.
    Where I lived as a child, DINKY models were rather unknown.
    Very good restoration my dear Paul. I must remember the "cold welding process", it achieves fabulous results. Clearly a thumbs up from me 👍🏼.
    Thanks a lot for sharing mate.
    Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound. Keep up the good work.
    Greetings from Cuxhaven, Paul

    Wiedermal ein Modell daß ich nicht kannte.
    Wo ich als Kind wohnte, waren DINKY- Modelle eher unbekannt.
    Sehr gute Restaurierung mein lieber Paul. Das "Kaltschweißverfahren" muss ich mir merken, es erzielt sagenhafte Ergebnisse. Von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼
    Vielen Dank fürs teilen mein Freund.
    Dir und deiner Familie noch ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter. Mach weiter so.

    I never had a Matchbox/Dinky/Hotwheels car that had a "motor". I was aware that they existed as a friend of mine had one, but they were very uncommon.
    Eventually, around 1979, my Grandmother bought me a Tonka "clutch popper" for Christmas (same basic idea, much larger size), and that was the best gift that year!

    Definitely my favourite of all Gerry Anderson's great series. Captain Black scared me more than any monster off Doctor Who that's for sure. Used to watch as a kid back in the late '60's on Saturday mornings. Did not own this model but I had the SPV for Christmas 1973 which was my favourite Dinky toy that I owned. Only problem was the rocket and trying not to lose it. These models are very rare these days and worth a fortune if they are mint and boxed. Also used to have the Dinky UFO interceptor, just wish I still had it along with the SPV.

    So much fun putting the cogs together etc.
    Health and safety means children today just get a lump of plastic not even a car to build without the power unit.
    So sad!

    A useful trick from plastic modelers. Hunt down some old school “Fewture” floor polish. These days known as “Pledge with Fewture Shine”. The stuff is actually liquid Acrylic. It is the best thing ever for restoring old canopies and clear pieces. Just dip the piece in it. Set it aside to let it fully dry overnight. Come back the next day and lightly polish it. You will be amazed. Your old plastic looks like new glass. It’s also sprayable straight out of the bottle as a clear coat.
