MATCHBOX Restoration 50A Commer Pickup 1958
Рет қаралды 69,376
4 жыл бұрынThis seemed a simple model, but with its two tone colour scheme it proved to be quite a handful. After multiple failures I got there in the end and this little model is now a welcome addition to my matchbox original series collection.
Was a busy week so this video came out a day later than normal, apologies to all my regular viewers, I hope you can understand.

The early Matchbox cars and trucks had a charm of their own and I still think they are the best ones. The restoration was just perfect and the model looks brand new. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this tutorial. It was great!

That's a good looking pick-up. Thanks for making these videos, my daughter and I watch them before she goes to bed and she always looks forward to them.

Well worth the wait even if a day late. I too love the original models. Plain and simple and with no "gimmicks" of the later models. This gives them a charm all to themselves and really, to their young owners, did it matter if it had no interior? No, it was loved just the same. Marty, you did a splendid job on the restoration. It looks factory new and now has a special place in your collection.

Just been looking at some of your older videos and really wanted to thank you for the tip on preventing bleeding of paint on two tones. What a great and simple little trick that produces great results. This was a really nice restoration and the time you spent mixing the right grey colour was well spent as it looks spot on. Excellent job all round, thanks for the video.

@chrissharp5073 4 жыл бұрын
Have always loved your explanations in your restorations,straight to the point and a great tutorial guide. Also you may wish to consider heating rusty axles with metal wheels with your mini blow torch thus avoiding collateral damage to wheels. It should help ease off the jammed wheels.

Hello Marty, first off, before I forget, congratulations on the successful auction of the “pink” bus. You raised a very substantial sum. You’re are a good man, Marty. Also thanks to all the You Tubers who participated in the challenge. Well done, all involved. In regards today’s makeover. I love the original Matchbox vehicles. You did a great job on this two tone truck. Thanks for all your efforts. See ya mid week for another unboxing. Bye.

As "simple" as this model looks, Marty still finds a way to work in a miraculous repair. It wouldn't be a Marty's Makeover without one! Marty, thanks for including more info about the tools, screws, and products you use. I'm looking to expand my techniques and appreciate it! Funny thing is I have one of those torches here somewhere, but have yet to make any creme brulee so it may need to be repurposed! 😄

Got a bit worried when we didn't see a video Saturday morning so very glad to find all is well and there another fantastic restoration to enjoy. As an aside, my nickname when I was young was Diggers, not because I liked mineral spirits, but because I liked to dig. My parents granted me my own plot next to the rhubarb to indulge this past time. I know for a fact that if anyone was to do an archeological expedition in the back garden of my childhood home they would find a few relics of this type to restore.

Really nice work. Great effort getting the seized wheels off the axles. The axles really weren't salvageable. A very attractive model in 2 tone. The 'before' was a mess. I wondered why the front end was sagged - until I saw the split in the base was the cause. The brace on the rivet post pushed the broken base metal out. Must have been stepped on. I keep an engineers straight edge 300mm long to check base plates. Many I've found are bent.

That little two tone ute/pickup truck looks fantastic and the silver sets it all off perfek. Love it Marty, another winner. I think you're right about the classics, they just make you want to pick them up and admire them. Edit. Just hadda qwik Squizzy Taylor at another two guys that did the same vehicle, I must say Marty the two tone Red and Grey really sets this model off, makes the Bahama Beige look very ordinary, they were nice too, don't get me wrong, but just that little difference sets them poles apart. Wish I could give more likes.

Nice work, Marty! Often it's the things that seems like they're going to be the easiest that end up being the most labor intensive. I don't know why that is sometimes, but I run into it in restoring action figures, drawing and illustrating, and just about everything constructive or creative. What's great though, is that you always feel great when you've final accomplished something that offered up a struggle. Great video as always!

But have since bought the yellow ford news truck, the silver foood diner (no 74) and starting to spend more money on some soon 😂 Keep at it Marty, you’re entertaining as HECK too 🔥
