MATCHBOX Restoration No.K7 Refuse Truck 1967
Рет қаралды 104,836
4 жыл бұрынI managed to take two broken refuse trucks and make one that works. The other bits left over have been put away as spare parts. Today I learnt that the metals used by Matchbox seem to have varying tolerance to heat. Attempting to weld a repair, something which I have done before, resulted in the metal turning liquid and basically dissapearing! I had to learn a new method involving the use of solder with a lower melting point. I will have to showcase this new method in another video as I ended up not filming it because I was not sure that it would work.
A short documentary on the real thing:

This matchbox model represents the Shelvoke & Drewry T series Pakamatic refuse collector from the 1960's. The crew cab actually seats 7, 3 in the front and 4 in the rear which is a full width bench seat. I build & cutomise waste Industry equipment models. I've restored a few of these models and modified a couple with the high cab roof that most of these variants had (to allow crew to stand up in the cab) The low roof version didn't actually have the two vent grills either side of the radiator shown on the model but the design was obviously taken from the other prototype. Nice restoration Marty, Love the improvised tool for peening the body pivot, keep them coming! Oh yeah and the rear portion is the Hopper/tailgate assembly, and the round dome above the radiator grill in the centre of the windscreen is where you filled the coolant. On the real vehicles these were Chrome. The roundel in the centre of the radiator bears the letters SD, these were white on a red background. the spar down the centre of the radiator was body coloured. (Obviously matchbox simply did the easiest paintjob to apply)

If you havent tried baking soda for blasting your parts, I highly recommend you do so. It wont remove details, but it will remove paint and leave a nice surface for painting. We use it at work for removing epoxy from delicate printing parts when they get worn out.

G'day from Germany. I had this model as a child, too and it's nice to see it again in brandnew condition. That's another first-class job, mate, a lot of effort but worth it in the end. Clearly, a thumbs-up for that. 👍🏼 And besides, I see the trash collectors in Australia work the same way they do here. 😂😂😂 (Just a joke 😁😜) Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Cuxhaven to You, Julie, the team behind the scenes and of course the most "koalafied" garbage truck driver in Australia, KEVIN 🐨 😁👍🏼🇦🇺👋🏼🇩🇪👍🏼😁

Hi Marty, very nice piece of work on the Shelvoke & Drewery refuse lorry, l loved the redesign on the rear tipping mechanism what a good idea ! Loved the video at the end, l thought when you put those last bags in the bin for Kevin to collect if it had been here they wouldn’t take, and l was right ha ha ! Conclusion is ALL bin men are trained to the same standards ha ha . Looking forward to the next video. Regards Tony Hawkridge.

Marty, the next time you need to use the Muggy Weld and torch, try using an small alligator clamp on the part, so it acts as a heat sink to draw away the heat, in the hopes that it won't melt your part. You'll still have sufficient heat to melt the Muggy Weld and join the two parts. I use alligator clamps, when I'm soldering capacitors to potentiometers on my guitars and it works beautifully, preventing the capacitors from being damaged.

Rick, Do you ever use ebay? There are a lot of older toys that could be restored there and many of them are inexpensive. Or garage sales or flea markets, I've seen a whole box of old toys that are beat up for a few dollars. Keep working on whatever you've got and remember it doesn't need to be perfect, if you like it and enjoy the process that's all that matters.

Great video Marty - aha, Tamiya Mica Red, wondered which paint to use for my upcoming restoration. Quite agree with the somewhat loose fixing method Matchbox originally used on the back collector back in the day. Will drill out the left hand pin like you did and then opt for easy axles 2 or 3mm tube running through the inside and secure on the outside. Not original I know but it will look good and work just fine. All the best Marty
