MATCHBOX Restoration No 72b Jeep 1966

Рет қаралды 240,194

5 жыл бұрын

I aquired this Jeep after buying a box of ten cars from a market in Geelong, Victoria, for $25 AUD. Every vehicle in the box had had its tyres removed, including this one! - This car had really bad paint, a corroded baseplate and a missing window frame. This project was ideally suited to a 3D print fix as the window frame was not available anywhere. I also printed a set of tyres for the first time in black plastic. Once again this little model was pulled from the brink and given a second chance to bring pleasure to children (and adults) of the future.

Hey Marty, longtime viewer. I’m a mechanic across the pond in the states and wanted to tell you about two products I use that might work for your restorations. Pb blaster in my opinion works a lot better than wd-40, but I’m not sure about the availability of it in Australia. Silicon spray can be used to revitalize rubber parts like wheels. Just spray it on and soak them for a bit and the will be supple and malleable again!

Marty, With the ultrasonic cleaner, lose the baskets - they only soak up energy. Instead of tap water, use demineralised water (like you use in a steam iron) bought from Coles or Woolworths in 4 litre bottles for a couple of dollars. The two or three drops of detergent may reduce surface tension but the physics of an ultra-sonic cleaner are worth reading about; ie 40K degrees C at the molecular level. And where two different metals are touching while in the ultrasonic cleaner, VERY WOW. Another great video.

you usually take such care to ensure pin holes and rough edges are cleaned up but on the finish window screens you could see the rough edges and you would have filled the cracks in the wheel hubs to give the jeep the best finish possible, it just seemed rushed. You didn't even colour match, you just used a paint as it was close enough. I love your videos so that why it was so strange to watch without your usual exceptional attention to details

@MartysMatchboxMakeovers 5 жыл бұрын

Actually I did paint this vehicle twice. the first time I recorded it the second I did not. If you compare before and after shots you will see that the later paint is a much better match. As for the hubs, they were split and irreparable. I was torn between waiting another 2 weeks to release the vid or go with what I had. I decided that I would go with the original wheels and hopefully gain ground with the overall finish of the end product. Once again, I was caught out by the camera. The split hubs are barely noticeable when viewed with the naked eye, but under the magnified scrutiny of the all seeing Samsung Galaxy 8 camera they look much worse. I am definitely going to go the whole hog in all future vids to minimise any negative feedback received! - Thanks DHCraft for compelling me to be more conscientious in the future. i feel that I could of and should of done better. Never mind, moving forward, we shall prevail!

@dhcraft9472 5 жыл бұрын

@@MartysMatchboxMakeovers I wasn't trying to be negative just that it must be a lot of pressure to restore, film and edit a weekly video and since you had to print parts as well . As you do go above and beyond in your restorations and videos it was so unlike you that it was noticeable. A few posters who do time consuming content like yourself and post at a regular time give themselves a break by either showing a technique or maybe try new products within their niche, like a video showing how to make your MM method nail/axel end rounder or showing the way you make decal to encourage people that it isn't as hard as they think. Just ideas to give yourself a chance to make a buffer so if the worst does happen and Mrs M figures out about all of her stuff you've been using you can have some videos already to go that you can send from the hospital. Have you thought about decanting the paint stripper into a squeezy bottle for more control and to save some cash, of course if it can be stored in plastic without melting it that is.

WD-40 is an OXYGEN DISPLACEMENT compound. It should NOT EVER be confused with either lubricant, penetrating oil or preservative oil!!! If you use it, it will first displace the layer of oxygen on the steel or iron. Then, the bare iron atoms will reoxidize as the bare metal comes in contact with the oxygen in the air, creating a new thicker layer of rust! If you have two surfaces that are both iron bearing metal stick together, the results of using WD40 will be two surfaces that are more stuck together than when you started; I learned the hard way removing fuel tank bolts on a 5 ton truck, I eventually had to use a hacksaw to cut the bolts altogether. Use a REAL penetrating oil! STOP using WD40!!!

@Aaron_Cantrell 5 жыл бұрын

WHAT? WD-40 is a penetrating oil and water-displacing spray. WD-40 helps remove rust by breaking down the bonds between metal and rust. Spray the rusted surface with WD-40, enough to thoroughly soak the area. ... Spray another application of WD-40 on the surface and let it sit for five to 10 minutes. Use sandpaper to remove any remaining rust.

@fraidykat No idea where you buy your WD40, but the one I buy displaces water and is essentially a thin oil, so exactly the opposite of the BS you are spouting - Rusted nuts and bolts are essentially penetrating oil proof - many tests have proven that nothing can get in those threads - your fuel tank bolts were already rusted solid, WD40 wouldn't have helped, but also wouldn't have made it worse. I use WD40 for it's main purpose - squeaky hinges, household door lock mechanisms, and best of all, removing sticker residue :-)

@fraidykat 5 жыл бұрын

@@Aaron_Cantrell YES!!! WHAT IS WATER MADE OF????? And HOW DOES IT DISPLACE THE WATER??? THINK!!!! THE SAME WAY IT DISPLACES THE OXYGEN IN IRON OR STEEL! The easiest way to spot an uneducated backyard mechanic is if they have a well used can of WD-40 on hand. The easiest way to spot an ignorant hick is if they continue using WD-40 after they have been told why they should not be using it as a Lubricating compound because it IS NOT A LUBRICATING COMPOUND!!! Once it evaporates, it leaves behind a layer of raw material that instantly oxides, replacing your good metal with metal and a fresh layer of rust. Every time you spray on WD-40, you remove another layer of oxygen which is a vital part of Steel or Iron, leaving behind a fresh layer of Fe2O4(rust) on your metal. Magnetite and Steel naturally contain oxygen within them, Iron as a metal has a coating of iron on it unless it has been treated with another chemical. I have a BS in Geology with a firm foundation in chemistry and one of the compounds we studied in depth was WD-40, how it works, and why you should not every use it as a lubricant, preservative, or anywhere near ANYTHING you want to keep around long term. Use a light penetrating oil instead. This following link may be more at your level. lifehacker.com/5891936/when-should-i-not-use-wd-40

This Jeep and I were born the same year. It looks better before the restoration than I do.

Marty's Matchbox Makeovers is like Mighty Car Mods on a smaller scale. I love these videos for the workmanship, the attention to detail, and the great deadpan humor. So good.
