I always get a kick out of reading the Weekly World News headlines in the paint booth. Bonus entertainment!

In this crazy world I am so glad to have MMM. Love bestowed to you all.

We Are All Happy About That, Another FANTASTIC Restoration. We Missed You Marty !!!

MIDWEEK MARTY! What a treat for lunchtime!

An uplifting end to a trying day. Always a delight to get an unexpected MMM notification. Perfect as usual. 😀👍👍

Yeah Marty! As soon as I saw the notification, I stopped what I was doing and hit play

I was driving past the site that the Lesney factory occupied,about a week ago. And MMM popped into my head. And here you are.😀

Great To have you back with more makeovers, I hope that you find time to do another one soon!

Love what you do. Best to you and Julie.

Yay, Marty's back!!!! You have been missed!!!

Always love watching your videos Marty. God Bless you and your family and crew.

Another excellent makeover! I too have one of these!!! Thanks for posting Marty! Cheers Doc

Sumdge is a beautiful cat!

My late Mother was a great fan of Kevin, and we watched all your vids together. This is the first of your vids I have watched without her, so I'm watching this in her memory. Thanks for many happy memories, and many laughs.

Nice build, details and paint job 👌 👍

Great job, Marty! The BP livery does indeed look great on that Ford. As a matter of fact I did the same last year on my channel. I switched the livery of the Dodge and the Ford around. The rear utility floors of the Ford and the Dodge actually have exactly the same dimensions and the decals are interchangeable without any problems. I did however have to keep my head focused and be careful not to accidentally paint them in the right colours. 😀

Interesting idea to restore that tow truck into a BP rig. Great video

Such a sweet kitty! Welcome, Smudge! Hope we see more of you soon. A very well-done model. I guess Esso paid more than BP to have their branding on a model. As a custom, it looks right at home with its stable mates. Missed you and hope all is going well with Julie and of course Kevin too. Thank you for an entertaining video. Cheers from Canada.

Thank you for the absolutely amazing restoration! I wanted to make sure I updated after your whole restoration!! 👍👌

The BP vehicles are my favorite Lesneys! Glad to see you posting again, Marty! Can't wait for your next installment video!

Awesome job Marty it looks fantastic 🌴👍👍😎🌴

Thanks, Marty, I did enjoyed the video! Nice BP collection and very sweet cat)

That's a really cool result. Putting both wreckers next to each other, both in the BP theme, you can appreciate how different the models are.

Love the custom jobs Marty, hope there will be many more to come

Video up for 12 hours. Over 6 thousand view and 0 dislikes. Love to see it! (Edit 10K views now and still at 0. You sir, are loved!)

Nice collection with the company name BP. I hope to see the Kintoy Volkswagen in the restoration.

Nice to have you back, Marty!

Marty, you may never see this but I just had to say thank you. I found your channel a couple of years ago and watching the love you have for your hobby really reignited a long lost passion I had for miniature painting. So after a 20 year hiatus, I’ve been painting again and love every minute of it. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the content you have provided us over the years.

Outstanding! Love your videos and how you narrate as you go. Thank you for showing your display case at the end.

Thanks 👍 love it looks very sweet ☺️ love the cat to Lee

Looks sharp. Great idea.

Absolutely WONDERFUL. So great to have you back, Marty!

Ah a new video. Perfect for my lunch break here in Germany

Great to see you Sir!!!

Great job Marty.......👍

That model looks superb in the BP colours - great job!

Good to see you again! Brilliant model!

Care with the hands Marty.. I had the same problem decades ago when working around solvents.. SO glad to have you back with a really fun makeover. It looks great in BP, totally right! By the way, after seeing your success with Mr Color and Tamyia acrylics, I am now transitioning my model railroad airbrushing to them... and getting great results. Many thanks for that!

I have 3 of the No 61s. I enjoy them 1 needs a restoration the other 2 just need cleaned up. This channel is great and miss the videos but I understand we all have normal life's then creating videos all the time. It's relaxing just restoring and bringing stuff back to life.

Great to see you again Marty!

Beautiful!!

I love what you did to the original truck to turn it into a BP

Lovely work Marty. Takes me back 50+ years. Cheers.

Great models

Thanks!

Beautiful job. Looks like what Matchbox should have made. Glad to see you do another one. Been a while your last one. Hope you and Julie are doing well. And Kevin.

Turned out great and looks good with the rest. I did a No 12 Land Rover to match the Stalwart. Possibly Esso and BP where willing to have a licensing agreement with Matchbox but didn't wish to share any vehicles.

Another lovely video Marty. You have real working man's hands...which is something to be proud of.

The green windshield looks great with the body and decal colors!

Glad to see you back!

Beautiful restoration Marty looks amazing well done 👍.

Missed you Marty... Great restore as always :)

Love Smudge, what a beauty!

Glad to see you back, Marty!

BEAUTIFUL ‼️👍👍

Woke up and found a new MMM vid waiting on me. So far, so good! Well done as always, Marty.

Moin and G'day from Cuxhaven 👋🏼 Well... This is an episode that pleases everyone 😃 A great conversion of an excellent model, a new housemate (greetings to Smudge 👍🏼😺) And... The legendary headlines on the newspaper in the paint booth 😂👍🏼👍🏼 After all, I do model conversions myself and all I can say is: Good onya mate 👍🏼🤩 So here we have a "Marty Conversion" 😆 (My mates downunder 🇦🇺 and the good ol' U.S. of A. 🇺🇸 call my specials "Sparky Conversion" 😂) A terrific idea to paint the Ford wrecker in a BP version. Not only is it the only one in the world.... It also looks downright stunning and fits perfectly with the other BP models. 🤩👍🏼 Thanks so much for sharing, Marty 🙏🏼 from me, definitely a thumbs up for this 👍🏼 Stay safe and sound and keep up the good work, mate 😁 Greetings from the lighthouse end of the Elbe River from the DCcoB (Die-Cast crazy old Bloke) 😎👍🏼🇦🇺✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 (P.S. Greetings to Australia's most koalafied ambassador, KEVIN 🐨)

Excellent job Marty

Looks great Marty! Nothing wrong with a little bit of custom work!

Marty!!!!!!!! We miss you!!!!!!! Great work as usual.

Hello from a dull UK.That's a super code 3,Marty.All you need now,is the 8 wheel ergo cab tanker to complete your line up.

As always another fantastic job.

Wonderful build!! It fits perfectly in the BP family of rigs you refurbished. I like the idea of customs that retain that Lesney feel to them. That gives you a ton of freedom to keep moving forward

Great to see you back Marty. Matchboxes and childhood memories restored. Keep up the good work.

When I was little I would have done anything for that model... I still recall that childish feeling of desire, even today

Glad to see you creating and restoring my favorite toys from my childhood. I had many examples of Matchbox vehicles. I totally agree, the old ones are the best work they did. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful shine on that paint job, well done Marty!

Nice knuckle scrape there! The new kitty was warming your chair for you! Happy you're back.

So glad your back. Missed your great videos.

Fantastic, would love to see you do an Anglia in dark blue and white

You are absolutely right, Matchbox should have done it. It's brilliant!! 👏

Welcome back - really enjoyed this video. Wonderful work!

Hooray! He's back!!!!

Great results on the custom heavy wreck truck cheers Michael

Excellent as always!

Great custom job, one of a kind mighty fine!!!David in Texas USA

I think Kevin has competition with Smudge. It's great to see you back.

I had the Ford wrecker when I was a kid. I got it as a premium from Quaker Life cereal. Eat the cereal, save the boxtops, send a couple in with some change (or maybe just boxtops) and you get the truck. Pop ate Life cereal every day, so I wound up with 2 of these. I don't know, though, that "heavy wrecker" was Matchbox's designation, or Ford's. @4:33 That was the nickname of a kid on our street-"Hey, Mushroom Head!" @9:18 Yeah, I winced when you took those pliers to the piece. I thought to myself, "Put some tape on those jaws! Or a scrap of cloth!" Beautiful finish, Marty! I look forward to your next project!

Enjoyed the video. I appreciate well conceived customs, and would encourage you to imagine more in the future. Smudge is super cute.

Marty that was a great idea. I wish I had one painted up like that. That is too cool.

Great vid!! Glad to see you back!! Truck looks awesome! Would you ever do a video on your collection? That would be sweet!

Great work Marty!

Glad you are back.

Glad you are back Marty. Nice job as always.

Fond memories with that one ! 😍

Your version looks better than the original. Great work, Marty ! 👨‍🚒🔥🇦🇺

That turned out really nice! Always a great day when I find a new MMM video available! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Your farmer hands are awfully beat up, mate!😂

At last you are back

Excellent work Sir Marty.
