  • This is a unique double makeover! - It includes two king sized matchbox vehicles a truck and trailer. This video took 4 days to record and then a final 9 hours to edit the visuals and then record and edit the voice over! I hope that you understand that I do not always have the time available to add the lights and bells to my videos. This video was a day late as a result of my limited free time and the fact that my printer ran out of ink and the one I replaced it with created an ink bleed in the decals. I had to redo the decals and then do the voice over late at night, which might make me sound a bit flat. I hope that you still enjoy this video and can appreciate the effort that went in to it even though it is later than usual.
    All the best, Marty.

    this was my favorite Matchbox vehicle of all time. I found one online about 10 years ago that was brand new in the original box. It has a special place on my desk. Simple things make me happy.

    I really loved this makeover Marty! I also love your bloopers as it reminds us all that behind every pristine model build is a heap of blood sweat tears and cursing, even from the best modellers.

    The engineering and design of the original model is amazing, for a pocket money priced toy.

    I've come over all nostalgic as I used to have one of these, and you are right, it was the favourite of all my toy cars. I used to be in the garden down in the mud loading up the truck with aggregate. Fantastic make over and a brilliant end result.

  • @chrisarmour6634
    @chrisarmour6634 3 года назад +1

    I had one of those as a child. I didn't repaint it, but like most kids, I removed all the tyres... Now I'm older & more mature, I'll look for another one to restore 😁

    I loved the king size models so hard when I was a child. They were more expensive and more difficult to get as gifts (my folks were not wealthy and I had 5 siblings to compete with). This restoration was a pure joy to watch Marty! My next door neighbour, Wayne had this combination set and some others. Together with mine we practically wore the paint off them every summer playing in the dirt in the early 1970's. I especially enjoyed the models with imitation hydraulic cylinders as I was fascinated with electrical/mechanical machines as a small child. Oddly, when I entered my early teens, I did not pick up a miniature hobby and I still recall the emptiness I felt inside when I would think back to those days in the dirt when I was a small child. I started building speaker cabinets and sound equipment in my teens and things expanded from there but I always remember(d) my fondness for small scale trains, cars etc.

    This one brings back memories. As soon as I saw the image, I knew that this was the one that I got sometime in the 1960s as a boy of maybe 8 or 9 years old. It certainly was a favourite, and I do think that I still have it in a box of old toys stored in the roof. The colours look great. There was another similar model of a dark red prime mover with two silver hopper trailers that opened to dump the load out of the bottoms. Excellent restoration.

  • @josephinehogg3629
    @josephinehogg3629 5 лет назад

    Being 10 years older than my youngest brother, who was born in 1962, he had this truck and trailer. I loved to play with him and his Matchbox toys, but being a girl, I was never given any as a gift and it was frowned upon for me to actually play with them unless he was there too :( I got my own back in later years when I had 4 sons of my own! LOL I got them all sorts of little cars - including 'VINTAGE' Matchbox cars! LOL Love your make-overs Marty. This was a particularly great one to watch. thank you

    A big salute & thank you to the donors of the subject & materials used to help Marty make this edition. Ken choked me up also with the generous supply package he sent. Everyone should watch that unpack aging video. Very awesome. The kid could have been influenced by a local company when he painted it. The new ultrasonic cleaner is a beaut .Bummer about that windscreen Again it is morning & I have my coffee. Very therapeutic Thanks Marty..

    There's one of these in a box in the attic, bought by my Dad nearly half-a century ago. Paint's not too bad and it's not missing too many tires. Your video made me appreciate the thought, engineering and design that went into this toy/model. The only way this video could have been better is if my Dad had been watching it with me.

    Plus Marty. You are almost a genius with these self making solution. The plastic "self made" windshield looks pitch perfect for that model. No one would ever suspect that windshield would be a "foe one". That's one of the most perfect "phony parts" that i ever have came across, watching or doing any sort of restauration; not just matchbox cars.

K16 s are my favorite .... my child hood k16 was even more gummed up with paint jobs than marty ;s refurb .... removing each layer provided a childhood memory .... Thanks Marty ...
