MATCHBOX Restoration No 19d Lotus 1966 & No 52b BRM 1958 racing cars
Рет қаралды 108,514
Күн бұрынThought I would do up a couple of Matchbox Lesney racing cars. They turned out pretty nice. I could not do one without the other as they were bought as a pair and have probably been together for the last 50 years or so!

Excellent video, I love reading the newspaper headlines in the spray box. Particularly the "Chimp's head out on a human" which when blocked by a paint pot becomes "MP's head out on human" A Marty classic. Another terrific Matchbox renewal as well !

They’re racing hard in “Martinsville!” Great job, Marty. The colors are beautiful. I may have sanded down the sharp edges of the new front “tires” (made from those washers) to get them to look like original Matchbox rubber, but other than that minor detail, another spectacular pair of restored cars saved from the race car graveyard. Great craftsmanship...

Couldn't sleep last night so went from watching many Megabatti bat rescuer videos to Marty's Restorations. Both of you are terrific. Great rescues & restorations in Australia. One to save the past, on to ensure the future. But after all this video binging I'm heading off to buy some lettuce seeds & Qtips.

Hi Marty! I'm a Matchbox fan since the early '60s, living in New Holland, Pa. You have a great restoration video channel! I build mainly 1/25 scale plastic car and truck kits now, and have also restored or reworked Matchbox and Hot Wheels vehicles. One detail I always do to my models is to black wash grilles and openings, and add flat black to some areas. Since you add some silver to the grilles and other areas, a slight flat black wash would really make them pop. I love your work, and having a supportive wife is awesome! Thank you!

My God, Marty....I am constantly amazed at some of your solutions to restoration challenges....in this video, the broken exhaust. When watching these, and you initially identify a “challenge”, I try to think “how would I address that?”. An inflating needle would never have crossed my mind! Outstanding, amigo! Incidentally, I have all of my Matchbox cars (200+) from my and my brother’s childhood in storage. These Formula racers were some of my favorite....planting an interest that has lasted all of my 64 years. If memory serves, I also had a red Ferrari....complete with the “prancing pony” emblem. I am going to have to open the sealed boxes where my cars are stored to investigate....and visit the idea of restoring them. (The three of them would look nice displayed on a stained walnut base!) Another well-deserved “Bravo-Zulu” for an especially enjoyable video!

I have a Matchbox Raceway set that I recieved as a lad years ago. It uses regular house current ( here in the states it's 110v) with a small transformer. Two small motor houses drive a long spring that gets put in the track when you put it together. A pin tapes to the bottom of the cars to drive them around the course. I had two of the green cars and spent hours running them.
