I'm 41 and I like seeing these later Matchbox toys being restored as they look familiar to me from what I played with as a child. The 1950's/60's models are only interesting to me from a historical point of view, whereas these later ones create a lot of nostalgia! Great video!

Got mega high, somehow ended up here. Was not disappointed 👏🏽

@lloid6619 4 года назад

I've never seen a Matchbox car renovation before, and yet I found myself watching the whole video, well done sir.

@paulorth2251 5 лет назад

Got admit, you took a sow's ear and made a silk purse. A flat black rally engine hood would have been a nice touch, the spot lights were sweet.

I can’t believe I just watch a guy restore a matchbox car. I’m not disappointed

@mitbener6805 5 лет назад

My 5yo son and I watched this together and we both thought you did an awesome job! And now I’m expected to fix all his broken toys!

@hestheMaster 5 лет назад

Egads what a transformation. That car looked almost hopeless. Can't believe what a difference the details and time it took to make it race worthy!

Smoked a good cigar and drank a good beer while watching these two videos back to back. It was highly enjoyable and relaxing. Thanks :)

@MatchboxGarage 5 лет назад

The many layers of paint to start was so thick! It was a huge job just to get it down to the metal!

@DannysDiecastDisasters 5 лет назад

Haha yeah i don't know what scenario went on to get all that paint everywhere inside and out of the car ...

@lajoyalobos2009 5 лет назад

Given enough time I think I would have submerged the whole thing in brake fluid for a while. Turned out great by the way!

@raymondmartucci2049 4 года назад

I would have to admit at first the car wasn't going to be saved, but after watching the whole video you did a nice job on redoing the car. Great job

@lordpurchase9189 Год назад

I like that y'all had those in Australia. These fords are one of my favorites. I find that these casings don't look too much like the actual model but your finished model looks more like a rally Escort. I'm always on the look out for old fords. I told my local charity shop not to throw any away no matter how beat they are because there is always something that can be done with them. I love the escorts and sierra's the most.

Cool to find out you're close to the same age as my wife and I...we were born in 1975! That being said, both of your builds turned out really nice...thank you for sharing!

@Felix24148 4 года назад

I saw the other car and I like this one better. The other guy did more paint detail with a clear coat. But you not only made a great rollcage, but completely redid the back seat and added custom spot lights and exhaust. This car has my vote

@frankknoll2064 4 года назад

Nice job! I was watching with the sound off so I didn't know what you were planning, when you started cutting the back seat out I was surprised. I thought it was just going to be a restoration but I was really intrigued to see how it was going to turn out and I was impressed! I hope you keep doing this because I love seeing the work you are doing! Again Nice Job!

How cool is this! Matchbox Superfast no9, from 1978. I have a mint one, untouched, exactly the same as this. White, with yellow/light blue/dark blue decals from Shell/Dunlop/Cibie, and a huge Ford oval on the bonnet with RS2000 in red letters also on the bonnet. Or hood, lol. And the towbar is there. And, yeah, no 9 is also a huge number in red, on the doors. D@mn, i have had it in 41 years! :) And btw, you did a fantastic job with your restoring, cheers, and thumbs up!
