What a cute model, can't wait to see it on the shelf looking new again! - The only things that I can see that it needs are a new crew, a repaired drawbar, a couple of horses and a repaint. HOW WRONG WAS I !!?
See how things don't always work out and feel my embarrassment as I realise that I have bitten off more than I can chew and don't have the time or the means to fix it!! :(

Beautiful child in elderly man... Beautiful craftsmanship😊.

@jebsails2837 Год назад

About 1908,my two very young uncles, were playing with matches. Wanted by their mother they, shoved their implements into the dresser which also contained Christmas gifts. Now outside they soon heard the clang at the local fire house, and rushed to follow the horse drawn fire wagon back to their house and into their mothers clutches. Thanks for this memory.

99% wouldn't even mention the missing piece or call this a fail. Marty is one fair and too humble guy. Thanks Marty! A pleasure as always!

@paulgertsch7105 Год назад

Turned out awesome.

@t0n51 Год назад

Just realized halfway there was no background music and I thought "no wonder it seemed off" lol. Excellent video Marty.

@blueboyhotwheelsandmore869 Год назад

26:52 that stuff is so small it makes my hands shake just watching , at the end of the video we get the blooper reel lol good touch, you not only put a lot of effort in to the models but just to make these videos, people do appreciate it Marty

@BulletNoseBetty Год назад

I appreciate your frustration over the missing part, but you still did an amazing job.

@swmarb5236 Год назад

MARTY....dont beat yourself up. You did a beautiful job....

@jamestaylor5143 Год назад

Marty, I have about 18 cars of yesteryear that were a Christmas present in 1961 or 62. Most of them need work and some are missing pieces. Thank you for posting your videos. You have inspired me to restore them.

@brianmicky7596 Год назад

Hi Marty, in all it turned out well. Good to see the old one's back, All the best Brian 😃

You knocked out of the park there Marty! Nice job!

@glynstimpson Год назад

Hello Marty great restoration nice to have you back

@alext8828 Год назад

Under high magnification, the paint finish on this model seems to be one of your best. Excellent job and video. I always like that background music. Never change it. I should edit in that I don't see this as a failure at all. It's one the best ever and the added parts will be the icing. Thank you for your hard work and interest in a very enjoyable hobby.

@PabloDiablo682 Год назад

It's always attention to detail Marty, you've got that right. And it shows in your makeovers.

@PatGilliland Год назад

We have a Ziggy too! She's a rescue from the Caribbean

@AlexBabcock-hw9iz Год назад

Such a great looking casting. I wouldn't have been able to not paint details on the firemen horses and on that brass pump. Came out looking good Marty nice to see you back with such an interesting makeover.

@jasonstarnes3838 Год назад

Its great to see you back to a weekly schedule. Always enjoy your vids and projects. Keep them coming!!!

@pauly7218 Год назад

WOW. Immediately my favorite! Not just because of the obvious connection but you did such a great job. I really think I need to get and restore one for myself now! Thanks.

@MartysMatchboxMakeovers Год назад

Wow, thank you! Paul

@MartysMatchboxMakeovers Год назад

Hey Paul thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the video and that it resonated with you as a retired fireman. It means a lot coming from someone with firsthand experience in the field. I'm glad you appreciated the restoration work on the small matchbox model of the horse-drawn fire engine from England. It was a labor of love, and I'm delighted that the effort and attention to detail came through in the final result. If the video has inspired you to consider getting and restoring a similar model for yourself, that's fantastic! It can be a rewarding and enjoyable hobby, allowing you to appreciate the craftsmanship and history behind these miniature vehicles. Should you decide to embark on your own restoration journey, I'd be more than happy to offer any advice or assistance you may need along the way. Feel free to reach out anytime, and once again, thank you for your wonderful feedback.

@mikeholt5118 Год назад

Memory's just flood back watching your channel Marty , one Christmas my aunty bought me this I thought it was the best present in the world I played so much with it , it ended up in same condition, thanks so much for the youthful memory's 👍🇳🇿

@ghostbustersquickresponseu5159 Год назад

This is hardly a failure. Looks great and when the missing piece comes it'll only make it better.

@tadream4561 Год назад

My apologies. I recently read your description of how you repair and paint one model at a time. I had a collection of vintage Matchboxes, some without boxes that i was going to send to you. The firetruck you are repairing i have this one but in excellent condition. Its really amazing how much patience you have bringing these little gems back to life. Im really thankful i discovered your channel Keep up the good work!

@MrNickyDalenz Год назад

Another great video Marty! Looks like this one gave you just a bit of trouble. You handled it beautifully. Thank you!

@garychatfield6709 Год назад

Excellent Marty! Another great makeover mate.

@paul-sparky-sparr4160 Год назад

Moin from Cuxhaven 👋🏻 Don't be so hard on yourself... The restoration is an incredible feat. Restoring all these filigree individual parts to their original condition is magnificent craftsmanship 🤩👍🏼 It's not your fault that the "pump" (?) was missing. I'm looking forward now to seeing the "finished" model when the replacement part has been delivered.... 😃 BTW... I know someone in Sydney who will love this episode. (G'day Jim, this one's right up your alley, isn't it? 👨🏻‍🚒🇦🇺👍🏼 😉) Marty, I'm absolutely thrilled, definitely a thumbs up for this from me. 👍🏼 Many a thanks for sharing 🙏🏼 Stay safe and sound and keep up the good work, mate 😃 Have a bonza weekend to you, Julie and all the team behind the scene. Greetings from the DCcoB on the sunny North Sea shore 🌊🏄🏽‍♀⛱️ 😎👍🏼🇦🇺🍻🇩🇪👍🏼🤠 (P.S. I hope KEVIN 🐨 is doing well after his "accident" with the Sentinel Steam wagon.... 😄)

Yes Sparky, it sure was. I found it quite enthralling. 👨‍🚒🇦🇺🍻

@MCML50 Год назад

Hi Marty, It. is always fun to se the good work you do with the little models, and also the newspaper you have as protektion when you paint, this kind of stuff about the UFOS are only in some of the minor newspapers I think, and I like it.😃👍.

@DigbyCCeasar Год назад

You can call this a fail because it was a struggle, but the results speak for themselves... that turned out gorgeous

@Tim-57 Год назад

Hey Marty Great outcome 😊 Take care

@josephcherrett3304 Год назад

'Fail' maybe, but it looks amazing and worth the effort + interest.

@rpfs2691 Год назад

It looks lovely. But if I look with the eyes of my eight year old self, I'd be very disappointed that I couldn't take the horses off and put them in the stables. And then sound the alarm and put the horses beach on in a hurry again to goo and pour out the fire. Yes, I see it makes sense in the display cabinet to use the glue. But, over fifty years on, there still are traces of that eight year old in me.

@jeffcrawford8201 Год назад

Great job as usual. I think it would look really cool if you touched the firemen’s buttons with gold also. Just a thought. Keep up the good work

@travelersdiecastcustoms1511 Год назад

Well done Marty👍👍👍

@richardkeen5828 Год назад

Good one Marty! I'd count the decal as a win.

@donmoore7785 Год назад

The spring punch is an AWESOME addition to your toolset. I haven't seen you use it before. Gorgeous model, beautiful restoration.

@MatSpeedle Год назад

Cracking job Marty, that was one tricky model to work on

@malcolmmacdonald3992 Год назад

Fantastic work! What a lot of details! Congratulations on a job well done! Makes me so happy that you are back Marty!

@RaoulStankovitch Год назад

When dealing with tiny decals I add a bit of extra decal to be soaked AND slice the decal film where Marty does (but through the paper backing). The extra paper, with the slice, allows a firm tweaser grip on the paper but allows the water slide to be smoothly slid off.

@markreetz1001 Год назад

What a bear of a subject. Too many things to go wrong that went wrong. Nice recovery though. Always a pleasure to watch you work thru the problems!

@fredflint5645 Год назад

Another outstanding restoration.

@darrylhilbig6459 Год назад

Here I was expecting some kind of disaster and it all ending in flames and tears. You teased me on this one. There was no failure. Just problems overcome. You've been watching 'Heartbreak Ridge'.

@pauljohansson288 Год назад

I'm glad you're back.

@lotharrenz4621 Год назад

aww. but what can one do being unfamiliar with a model? as a kid I used to have the Side Hut Truck, and didn't find out until recently there ought to be a plastic hut going onto the bed. XD you're refreshingly honest about it. it's also a little lesson, too. some parts always seem to break off first. ^^ love the result, looks as new, with fresh horses and dedicated firemen. :)

@norooron333 Год назад

Nice one! MARTY.

@NitrousDiecast Год назад

Despite the missing piece, the model looks really good!

@zach123101 Год назад

No mistakes just happy accidents, it changed the path of the restoration but it wasn't a failure, still looks great

@KLOSTER777 Год назад

Very nice , that’s an amaizing model I had never seen before.

@anthonyellis987 Год назад

I'm sure that it will amazing once the final part is put on it.

@fritziepisarski8681 Год назад

Always a happy surprise to see something new . I enjoy watching so much. Have you ever repaired a motorcycle or with side car. I don’t recall ever seeing one. As i ride, it would be most interesting. Regards from New York 🇺🇸

@jerrybailey5797 Год назад

Great restoration Marty , l think we can forgive you for tye missing part (make sure Kevin hasnt hid it somewhere 😉 😂) looks fantastic though 👍

@miroslavzahariev4679 Год назад

Very cool model!

@Seele2015au Год назад

Hi Marty, glad to see you working on one of these, and a great job it was too. You made me fished out my example: bought new and in very fine condition with black horses and all-black figures. The boiler is gold but the pump behind it is silver, and the driver has his feet touching the footboard, so it seems the dimensions of the replica figures are a little bit off.

What a cute little model. It turned out beautiful. A real "Eyecatcher" in your collection.

@warnerjanveldhuis341 Год назад

I watch Marty's videos twice. Once for the toy makeover, and the second time for things like the "Best way to dispose of a body" browser tab and the weird newspaper in the spraybooth. 😂

@drealean Год назад

Surprised to see a New episode so soon. It made me happy. A New model to me, lovely, would like to see the picture of it when its complete. So, no harm done, no fail😉 For us watchers some thing extra to watch out for👍👍👍! Thanks Marty, again a lovely model👍🥰

@paulgee4336 Год назад

You need to make a "Wheel Protector" that slides down over the wheel and protects it from the grinder. Probably out of thin metal sheet. (aluminum? tin?) Maybe get fancy and have it be two halves that slide together around the wheel for 100% protection, with a hole for the shaft, maybe even attach that to some Needle Nose Pliers.

@skodakatie7341 Год назад

That was a testing restoration, but, as ever, expertly done, the finished model looks beautiful ❤

You did nice Job restoring that Mason Fire Wagon! In the beginning it looked like the Headless Horseman had his own Fire Department but was missing the horses, And I hope you get that part you ordered so you can complete it and make an update video about it.

@animestein Год назад

Another wonderful MMM, thanks for the entertainment! This one actually looks really neat, I like the detail on all the parts. Don't sweat the missing piece, what proper Firemen hasn't left something behind when a call comes in? One time a fire crew close to where I live, left a pot on the stove when responding to a call. Needless to say the firehouse was as well done as their dinner. Lol thanks again and have a great day.
