This is my first 'Major Pack' restoration. I struggled to find some accurate source material to confirm it's original colour. I therefore had to wing it some what as I was convinced that the orange colour on this model was not original! - I guess it turned out that it was the original colour and that the previous owner had only painted the upper parts of the model in gloss black! - I think my decision was swayed by a previous unboxing video where 75% of the models had been painted orange! - I must apologise about the thumbnail and opening scene. I had somehow deleted the spinning carousel shot of the unrestored model. I don't know how but I guess as I am forever running out of storage space on my hard drive ( These video files during editing are huge!! Sometimes 3 hours edited to 25 minutes! ), I must have deleted it by mistake! I hope that it does not spoil your enjoyment of this video!

Marty, I don't do restorations or collect Matchbox models. However, I enjoy your videos, and I use them to put me to sleep. I retired last July, after 40 years as an educator, and I have had trouble going to sleep at night since then. I find watching your project videos to be soothing and helpful in getting me to fall asleep. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the trip down NY Post Memory Lane. That's the NYC I arrived to in the 80's for Graduate school. It's a very different NYC today, But I remember the headline and bust out laughing when I saw it in the video! Crime is down more than 1200% in the city since those days. I am a tour guide in the city today, and tourism has tripled since those days. The tour at my company is on me if you vacation this way! Love the truck! Thanks for "lorrying" me into watching another one!

@LymanPhillips 5 лет назад

Marty, first of all - your wife is a saint. Secondly - WOW! That paint job came out beautifully. And the shiny look after the brass wool was freakin' gorgeous. But I agree, I think that bowl is going to cost you dinner for 2 and some flowers. Bravo Marty!

@Sam-ed8kk 5 лет назад

Neatness counts. Nice recovery with the 'pop rivet' repair. That's dried black paint making the wheels and axles tight. I've seen caustic soda used in other videos, using old mayonnaise jars and warm water, apparently, with similar good results. Oh yeah, I'm on smoko, so leave me alone!

@TisBestinDiecast66 5 лет назад

Love it, Love it, Love it. One of my favourite castings in the Major Pack series and you have totally nailed it Marty. It also comes in a second livery with silver cab and dark red/maroon trailer and LEP International Transport decals. Just as a suggestion when using caustic soda as a stripping agent I use a Cook ware metal meat dish/bowls with a Teflon coating. It will eventually strip the Teflon coating possibly but at least you have no risk of the container exploding. Also as a precaution wear rubber gloves and goggles in a well ventilated area, it takes no prisoners like skin and eyes and has a harmful odour that can damage lungs. That said ' Top Job Fella'

@edwardsadler7515 5 лет назад

What you said in spades TBID, both in the quality of the work and the hazards of paint stripping. I once saw a supposedly qualified chemist drop 50kg of caustic soda pellets in 50kg of water - fortunately, we managed to run out of the room before it exploded! Concentrated caustic will remove fingerprints from skin and leave burns if repeatedly exposed. Nitrile gloves will provide better protection than pvc.
