Honestly, it looked like an old field found or barn found clunker before - like, it even wore like you might expect it to, and after, it looked like you'd spent a year lovingly restoring it to take it out on the town. I don't know if it's the detail of the car or what, but it's great and I liked it both ways, but I feel like you really did this restoration a special brand of justice here. Well done!

I love these OG Matchbox restos the most. When I was a kid in the late '70s, one of my uncles gave me a bunch of his '60s Matchbox cars, and it was obvious even then that the newer ones weren't as well-made. (My favorite was the Mercedes-Benz ambulance.) I wonder where they ended up. I should have a look around--I had a collector case for them, so if they didn't get thrown out or yard-saled somewhere along the way, they should all be together, somewhere in the family's closet ecosystem. :) Also, you may be interested to know that the Willys-Kaiser brochure name for that color appears to be "Indian Ceramic No. 2".

I don't know how your fingertips aren't full of steel wool bits & brass. I used a slow speed dremel...even to buff out scratches in plastic. And as for detailing - nail polishes come in many metallic shades & have tiny brushes too. Makes for a more glassy appearance on headlights & a more plastic one on taillights. And chrome too can be found. Nice restoration though. Love seeing all these cars from my childhood!

Have you ever tried using the same liquid that auto windshield repair companies use to fill or “hide” the “spider” cracks? Or another idea is to find out what sort of solvent will soften the plastic windshields and using a very fine hypodermic needle, try to get a microscopic “drop” of it to run or flow into the fissure. Wait for it to completely dry, then sand and polish...

Hello, I think your work is amazing. Watching your videos makes me wish I still had my 1960's Matchbox Collection. I would like to make one ( well intended ) comment...NOT a complaint. Your finished paintwork is always awesome. However, I've noticed it often looks very "thick". Thereby, reducing the definition of some fine details. Such as seams, door handles, marker lights, fuel caps, body badges, etc. For example, on this Gladiator...the thickness of the paint is very noticeable on the tailgate. "JEEP" is very muted ...as compared to the original paint & when compared to the other Gladiator on the turntable shown at the conclusion. The casting looked "crisp" before & after the paint was removed. Are you using a "fine-coat" type of metal primer? Respectfully, Ben

I've got the non metal spring version of this and there really isn't a plastic spring inside the tabs that hold the doors in place are longer that line up with the dash. they are a bit more floppy than the metal spring but they don't go flying open if you shake it. would be interesting to to know which is older the metal spring or with out spring.
@ukmatchbox1-753
5 жыл бұрын
without a spring is older, early to mid 60's ish, the upgraded metal tension spring design stayed through from about '66 into the 1980's. One is just a much better fully engineered version of the other because it includes the spring steel spring. The flat plate spring principle also later went into the base plate for suspension.
