Marty - BEAUTIFULLY DONE! This model is one year younger than I am! Absolutely love it! Great finishes, very well done! Thank you so much for this project, very entertaining!

This restoration was made possible by viewers like you. Thank you. 🚛🐨

the restoration jobs keep turning out better and better!

It is hard to believe it is a toy over 70 years old. Once again you have taken a piece of toy history and restored it to how it originally looked. The model looks fantastic and the tailgate looked straight as an arrow That was a good idea to add a drop of oil to the screw as it will help in keeping the rust off. Thanks for making and sharing this tutorial.

You're a wonder! I might be an old girl but I love toy cars and trucks. I enjoy watching you bring them back to life and beauty.

A sweet little truck, and for its time a joy for any kid to play with.

Great job Marty, paint job looks wonderful. Back to new.👍👍👍

Colours look spot-on! Beautiful job.

I like that you're branching out into brands other than matchbox for restorations.

*Sandblasting for little die-cast vehicles, Marty would you ever think one day you would use that kind of tools? Bravo for the restoration! 👍👏👏👏*

Awesome restoration of an beautiful, but well played and warn down little Tipper Truck. Now it looks better than factory fresh..

My absolute favorite....stay healthy and best wishes!

Brilliant work

Good video Marty, glad to see something from the last century and not from the 19th century! It looks really nice, not like a miniature truck/lorry but clearly a durable toy for children.

Imagine the joy this would have bought to a kid that’s just been through the hardships of WWII

In a book Savage Continent by Keith Lowe, there were stories about orphan children in Germany having a blast after WWII. It was horrible most of the time, but sometimes kids would play games others would dream about. For example, they were trying their luck avoiding mines in minefields, playing with leftover military equipment or even put an unexploded bomb into fire once. I wonder how they lived to tell a story, but some people have fond memories of after war (non)childish games.

A FANTASTIC restoration job!!... Looks better than it did when it left the Dinky Factory!!... Keep up the great work Bud!!

What a finish Marty good things come in little glass bottles and tins. 👍like the sand blaster no more rushing to the tap.

A beautiful Dinky, a little before my time, but the fact remains that not many of us ripped models apart and stuck the corkscrew in our eyeballs.

I always get a laugh out of the headlines in your paint booth.

Beautiful truck design. Great restoration

A beautiful restoration, Marty.. The tipping system of this Dinky truck, which you have so carefully cleaned and lubricated, is simpel and at the same time an ingenious system, beautiful.

Eccezionale restauro!👍👍

what a beautiful back garden!

That tipper is one your best, Marty! Beautiful, original detail only made better by your makeover skills. Love the sand-blaster. Thanks and hope you and your family have a great week.👍🏼🤘🏼😎

That sand blaster is perfect for stripping paint. Awesome looking toy truck Marty!

Beautiful restoration work.

That's an awesome restoration 🤩

Utterly fantastic, 10/10 yet again!

simply gorgeous!!! Thumbs UP!!

You do amazing work! Best resto/makeover channel I've seen. I like that you show mistakes,

Great work and I hope things are going well down under

Nice paint job , so neat and tidy👍

So happy you bought a sandblaster :-)

Brilliant makeover Marty, and a cool model. Keep up the good work

Absolutely Fantastic.

I like the silver paint on the grill. Your videos are always great, Marty!

Nicely done. Be well, Marty!

Nice restoration and paint job!

Lovely garden!

Much respect from South-Africa.

Beautiful Restoration Marty.

Nice resto, Marty.I like the winding mechanism.

22:13 That "plonk" made my day.

Super. A vary attractive model in blue and yellow. Might be oldest model you have restored.

Awesome restoration, Marty !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good job thanks for your make over

looks better than new great job

Outstanding!!! 🚚 As for your sandblaster plastic panel being pitted & cloudy, you can use furniture/plastic polish to fill the gaps & make it last longer. Used to do that to the shields on the lathe at the dental office where I worked.

Nice shiny paint job...

Super makeover again! - "you should be happy with that"

My late grandfather worked at the Meccano/Dinky factory in Liverpool. During the war the factory switched over munitions and war supplies (he had a heart condition and could join up) so this could be one of the first batches made after the war. He used to tell many stories, one of which was that from the time where Dinky was winding up, he was sent by Frank Hornby to Corgi to show them how 'do dicast properly' as he put it. Not sure how true this story was, but it could explain why the Corgi tyres fit the Dinky wheels so well.

Total respect this is amazing

Great video Marty. Glad to see your successful use of a sandblasting cabinet. Rather enjoy sandblasting videos! Cheers!!

Very nice

Beautiful as ever. Keep up the good work

BEAUTIFUL JOB MARTY

Wonderful job Marty!

Damn you! Lemon, great source of Vitamin C. I bring about 10 lemons a week from my parents house tree, extract the juice and freeze one part, the rest, I use it to cook. Meats, fish, drop three tablespoons of lemon in them while cooking, not only tastes great but protects you from colds. Haven't had one in 5 years!

Yay! 'Nother restoration video from MMM!!! I'm happy with that.

Beatiful job, Marty!!

Another amazing restoration! Very nice! 👍

great job marty, lovely one mate.jpj

Your videos are both soothing and satisfying.

Hi Marty all ways like reading the head lines on the news papers. In the spray booth lol

Marty! What a beauty of a Restoration! That truck predates even me. ;o) Great modification of your existing techniques. Always a better way. Stay safe, Folks!

Nice job on the small fine details...

Great job Marty... love the colours

You got a sandblaster! Recommendation: Watching sandblasting is incredibly satisfying. That's a good zen moment to simply say nothing and let everyone watch the process in full.

Nice job, again. Keep up this good work. I love it.

Great job. Thank you for the content.

You do wonder who put these little toys together in the first place. Soldiers and service men back from the war? If so, it's an honour to consider that you are restoring something that had been so produced.

Nice work on the Dinky Truck! And the sandblasting machine was a good investment it'll help you cut back on paint stripper a bit and I seen people use them to restore older toys in their videos and Nick's Toy Garage has one and he does some good work with it.

Amazing work.

Wonderful work!

Beautiful job!

Wonderful job!

I know this is an old video. But, I'm just now finding it. From one toy restorer to another. I like mine bigger. Tonka, Buddy L and Nylint from the 40's through the early '70s. Whoever told you to mix lemon and baking soda, told you wrong. Putting baking soda in the lemon juice will kill the acid of the lemon. It's the acid that eats away at the rust. I never use a sandblaster. I have no use for it. I use white vinegar to remove old paint and rust off of steel toys. It takes about a week soaking in white vinegar to remove all the rust and old paint. I've used this method to get old paint and rust off of steel toys for 35 years. It always works. But just as a side note, never drop a Matchbox car in the vinegar. It will eat cast aluminum up. In a week, the steel parts will be clean and rust-free. But the cast aluminum will be gone. Getting rust off of small steel parts using vinegar can take as little as an hour soaking, And as much as 4 hrs soaking. It depends on how rusty the parts are and how big they are.

A great restoration

Very nicely done ✅!!!

😎 Dolly Parton quote!!.. A lot of truth to that too!!

Beathfoul , very good job. Marty

A master at work

Nice restoration, thanks.

A superb restoration Marty, you returned a piece of trash to it's former glory. Stay safe!

Wow i love it the way you make them look new again lol great job

Fantastic job Marty. I don’t have many Dinky models but am inspired may be to restore the ones I do have.

You have done it again Marty.

Fantastic job Marty

Mr Hobby is the company. Mr Color is the product.

Loved this video. Great work.

Quote of the day if want the rainbow you've gotta put up with the rain.

Regardless of which brand has the vehicle you decide to restore, the result will always be absolutely exceptional! You're number one Marty

Magnificent job😁

Hello Marty great restoration looks fantastic

Very nice work Marty.

HOWDY Marty! Thanks for posting all the great resto videos. Matchbox or Dinky, who cares. I like watching all. Keep up the great work.

Cleaning Vinegar will do the trick as well. Takes a couple of hours, depending on how heavy the rust is, but it works a treat. No agitation necessary, but it always is worth a try.
