    Great Job Rob, love the changes you have done. Colour is great and the tyres are just right for it. I have a couple of these without the roof so I now have some idea of what is possible to do with them.

    Cool Fieldcar You build Rob! Great colour you mixed. That paint reminds me on my Datsun Stanza I bought in 1982. The wheel change was also a brilliant idea. Cannot wait for Your next project! 👍👍👍

    A favourite model of mine. I think that it's based on the 'International Scout' vehicle. That's what it looks like to me. Great custom, as always. Nice one.
    P. S. - Bog standard 'Halfords' (#notspon) Acrylic primer is superb. I've used it for years. You can get it in Black, White, Grey and Red. Bloody great cans, last for ages. As used on TV shows like 'Thunderbirds', and movies like 'Alien', too.

    • @MatchboxGarage

      Thanks mate but does it not fill in too much of the detail on these little castings 🤔

    • @brianartillery
      @brianartillery 3 года назад

      @@MatchboxGarage- I've never found it to be problematic. It's just a good, basic primer. If Poundland didn't keep selling out of their own primer, I'd use that all the time.

    Would I have recognised this as a Matchbox Field Car? Not too sure but I think I would. It looks so different though. That colour works well Rob, very classy - "Metallic Morning Dew", or something similar.😁 It suits the soft-top look too, lovely job.👍👌😁

  • @judih.8754
    @judih.8754 3 года назад

    Being a topless car now, the light interior is cooler than a black one would be (in real life). Nice job on the top chop!
    I like the colour on the car but in the mixing pot it looked like baby poop! Nice job overall Rob! It looks like it's ready to drive to the club for a round of golf and drinks!

  • @R1chardB1ngham

    The most rare 1/24th die cast metal RV model; you can/will ever find is, the 6 wheel Winnebago. Very well that's what; the 'Transformers' Autobot Commander, Rodimus Prime comes in the form of. It's what we fellow Americans; didn't construct/assemble during the mid 60s, such as like in 1965.
