This looks like an actual, played with toy car. Not like the fake, highly distressed and dirtied diecasts that garner millions of views. Good for you. I appreciate the authentic honesty.
Top Drives Pack Openings I feel some of those are brand new things they just stuffed in the mud five minutes before they took a picture for the thumbnail.
This is what I love about this channel - the fact that you'll do straight-up restorations like this one (brilliant, btw) and then you'll also do cutomisations and dioramas. The variety is what keeps me coming back time after time.
I would love a nice Ferrari Matchbox casting from back then. This one in particular just looks great and that's before your done. After you finished, WOW. AWESOME JOB AGAIN SIR.
the windshield looks even better when its in the car...overall the car looks great, think it need slightly bigger wheels. but you really saved it, its looking great
Love the video! Always a treat to see people restoring things. Small tip from my experience using retrobright on old lego. I see many youtubers using bags but found it easier to use small cups that used to hold toppings you can smear on your bread. The reason I prefer this latter process is because you can more easily submerge the part you want to brighten. And you can take it out, inspect the result, with or without a quick rinse, and if you're unhappy easily cover it entirely again. I also feel that this treatment increases the temperature within the cup when exposed to sunlight (on the windowsill), which speeds up the process.
Another awesome restoration! The windscreen looks great. I have seen some people use headlight restorer to revive yellowed model windscreens, but your method worked great! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The end result, a stunning looking F40 Danny. A fantastic job done on it. Yes, it has to be bright red! I can't believe the windows came out looking so good. Cheers.
It looks incredible! I am very impressed with how well the windshield cleaned up andI was surprised to see you were able to remove the yellowing. I have never heard of the paste you used but it really worked well. Simply an outstanding job.
That poor Ferrari in the beginning was pretty rough, little did it now it's found its way right into some good hands. I never knew you could do that with the windshields, is a slick thing that you did have to keep that in mind. She turned out beautiful my friend, the red could not be more perfect.
Great job with your Restoring of The Matchbox F40 Ferrari . Amazing job with the painting and details . and you can now see the windscreen was not broken but it was the windshield wiper. It would have left it Black would have been like the car on Fast & Load.
By far one of the most beautiful and best restoration work i have seen maybe because i love this model danny the wheels..... wonderful even if you say they are not the best option for this particular car, love it, congrats.
Mad props for painting the taillights.🙌🏼 and even the interior. Such a minor detail...but it makes a huge difference. Love watching this kind of videos. 👍🏼
I totally agree with you about red being the only Ferrari colour, but I've seen this model in white, and it still looks badass as hell. The only thing I would do more in this project, is letting the windscreen in the sun for quite some more. 3-4 days perhaps. I think the sun's UV rays would have more time to work and the plastic would be even more crystal. Good job!
Gorgeous job Danny. Particularly liked the detail work you did on the engine. Very nice indeed. The little details, like the size accurate badge, make all the difference.
Excellent transformation! The wheels would be better with the Ferrari 5 spokes like the real car had, but no doubt this looks superb Sir. I know its been said about it having possibly bigger wheels, but that is the same with the real car - the wheels look slightly undersized - so i think you got it spot on there. The paint finish is definitely top drawer! Peace and respect, Ben
Insoo Farri made a nice car still popular today i was in paris IN 89 SEEN HIS SHOP AND HE HAD THE FRIST ROAD AND RACECAR ON DISPLAY. THEY SHINE LIKE A DIAMOND. danny that turn realy nice
You have a very nice job. The F40 is my favorite car! I just started making videos. I'm still a beginner. The inspirational things you do! Thanks for the videos!
First I would like to say you did an amazing job on this one. I for sure thought that windshield was a goner. Second I about died laughing at 0:32 when you said 1987 to 1982 lol. Keep up the great work.
Wow! That came out great. The recessed side body work looks as though it is a slightly darker red. Beautiful. The wheels and tires always make the restoration pop. While the interior was being painted I thought for a second you had hired Hellboy. Lol. See ya next time.
I have the Testarossa from the same series. It also has the massive Ferrari logo in the front. I'm happy to see what you did to this piece of matchbox history.
Great resto Danny i have one of these to restore I hope mine comes out as good as yours , the f40 is one of my dream cars amongst other Ferrari's, brilliant job done mate 👍👏
My favourite car of all time and the greatest Ferrari built. A track legal road car and the last car overseen by Enzo Ferrari. Saying that, the FXX comes close.
This looks like an actual, played with toy car.

Good for you. I appreciate the authentic honesty.
Blame MrRescue lmao
I'm glad someone actually addressed that
Yeah I don’t get those, I don’t watch them, only real restorations
Top Drives Pack Openings I feel some of those are brand new things they just stuffed in the mud five minutes before they took a picture for the thumbnail.
yup, looks like my old Matchbox when I was a kid :D
I think his fingers need some restoration.
pait remover should work ... ;-)
😂😂😂😂😂
Thers a thumbnail joke there somewhere but lifes short etc
Thanks Jake, I needed that!
In other words, a manicure

I believe this is 90s matchbox Ferrari f40.
Used to have it. Nice to see someone has a passion to restore old toys.
Great job Danny! You saved that supercar from total disaster. Beautiful paint, sweet wheels.

You just hit a homerun that car looks awesome I love the special details that you put into your work.
As always, fantastic restoration of the F-40. Your resto looks better than new. Thanks Danny for another video to show your talents.
Great work... The F-40 definitely got a second life as a Matchbox car
The end result, a stunning looking F40 Danny. A fantastic job done on it. Yes, it has to be bright red! I can't believe the windows came out looking so good. Cheers.

Congrats Danny awesome job! Superb detailing
Wow! The 🤩 you really brought that thing back from the grave! Great work! 🔥🔥🔥

Awesome save, glass turned out great, the interior detailing and wheels are definitely a nice touch, nice job on the paint too!
Easily in my top three favorite Ferraris, and you did a smashing job of bringing it back to life!
Danny you brought it back to life its cherry now job well done
It turned out awesome and the wheels look fine. Great job on getting that windshield looking good.👍👍😊

These wheels are a HUGE improvement over what was on this!!
I think you did a good job on bringing the glass back. The car looks really nice.

A superb restoration of one of the best Ferraris of the 1980's. It even overshadowed the 288 GTO which it was the starting point of it's development.
The details look great on this one... Well worth the extra time you had to put in it...
That's superb! It looks like a high end model now, rather than a simple toy. Nice one.
Absolutely fantastic job on the window. As for the rest... one of the best ones you've done mate...
Great job! So much better, especially the windscreen. 🏁
Nice job Danny on a simply superb restoration.
Possibly the best restoration+ ive seen
Great job, good restauration. Congrats from Portugal. Cheers
Much respect for the one and only Supercar, best ever built
Really great restoration. You have very steady hands!
Insoo Farri made a nice car still popular today i was in paris IN 89 SEEN HIS SHOP AND HE HAD THE FRIST ROAD AND RACECAR ON DISPLAY. THEY SHINE LIKE A DIAMOND. danny that turn realy nice
Excellent job! I love everything you did!
Looks great. The red hue also looks correct for a Ferrari. Well done.
From garbage/thrash, to private collection/museum.
Although I hate this brand, I watched your video, for the quality of restoration.
Respect, Danny.
Very beautiful restoration. The car looks awesome. Nothing more to say about..
Wow I've actually got one of these, when I saw this in my recommended I was really taken aback.
Great restoration on this matchbox Ferrari f40 sharp looking car👍👍👍😊😊😊
You have a very nice job. The F40 is my favorite car! I just started making videos. I'm still a beginner. The inspirational things you do! Thanks for the videos!
Beautiful restoration! Excellent job!.
Amazing how good the casting look after the paint is removed.
Can’t believe what I just witnessed
Bravo
Lovely job! There’s a white one of these at the local op shop. It’s pretty beat up and I have been thinking of doing a resto on it. Hmmmmm.
Not a Ferrari Man but you really did this model some justice.
That looks Really Great now. Even with those wheels on it. You did an outstanding job of restoring it.
Looks better than it did on the production line, fantastic restoration buddy
Beautiful looking Ferrari. You sure are busy this week!
Nice, windscreen came out great👍
I found the exact same model in our big chest full of old toy cars from when we where kids. Gonna restore it aswell :)
Absolutely awesome restoration Danny!
You're like Marty's matchbox makeovers' NZ cousin who fixes up more modern/later MB cars
Bloody brilliant work btw
This is so cool I couldn't stop watching great job restoring!!!
Gorgeous! The resto is perfect. Though the wheels look a little too small and recessed to me.
Nice resto! Came out awesome. Man, you sure do pump 'em out...
First I would like to say you did an amazing job on this one. I for sure thought that windshield was a goner. Second I about died laughing at 0:32 when you said 1987 to 1982 lol. Keep up the great work.
Yes meant to say '92
Danny's Diecast Disasters yeah I figured it was just really funny.
Brilliant. That job you done on the screen was ace. One of my favourite cars too.👍💯
You just keep getting better and better at your art wow!
Awesome restoration.
Great job on the windscreen Danny, you'd never know what a state it was in. These wheels are a huge improvement too.
A nicely detailed casting...
Wow! That came out great. The recessed side body work looks as though it is a slightly darker red. Beautiful. The wheels and tires always make the restoration pop. While the interior was being painted I thought for a second you had hired Hellboy. Lol. See ya next time.
Great resto mate!
Possibly my favourite ever car 😍 You done a great job mate 😎👍🏼💪🏼
I have the Testarossa from the same series. It also has the massive Ferrari logo in the front. I'm happy to see what you did to this piece of matchbox history.
A very nice result. It looks great .
I have a 1/43 scale 80s Burago I've been wanting to to! Thx for some motivation dude!
Came out beautiful. Can't wait for the next one. Have a great day.
Thats the Ferrari i enjoy the most, from matchbox, glad someone did it....and perfectly
very well done Danny
Beautiful job sir.
Stunning turnaround mate! I'm not sold on the wheels but hey, that's subjective. Awesome job
Very clean restored state! I can play around with different wheels on it 😆
Beautiful car but it really needs 5 spoke wheels with black wall tires. With that it would be amazing. Awesome job. Keep up the great work.
Damn Danny !! That looks fantastic now. One of my favorites so far!
Excellent work as usual. Thank you.
Great restoration!
Great resto Danny i have one of these to restore I hope mine comes out as good as yours , the f40 is one of my dream cars amongst other Ferrari's, brilliant job done mate 👍👏
Nice work. What a fun little video. Thanks!
Amazing transformation Danny, looks brilliant.
My favourite car of all time and the greatest Ferrari built. A track legal road car and the last car overseen by Enzo Ferrari. Saying that, the FXX comes close.
That horse can run. Very Nice restoration
I agree it looks just great!!.. Looks like this Ferrari is ready to hit the track... Another super job!!
