@@nedinnis6752 awesome job bud, thanks for establishing that pins are worthless. Makes me so happy to know that you're enjoying and being a part of this worthless post. Way to go champ! 😉😉😉

Beautiful resto as always!! I love old matchbox castings. Something about the wheels always makes me smile. They're some of my favorite of any older die cast. They just look so real compared to todays plastic nightmares!!

Not sure why I get so much enjoyment watching these restoration videos, but I do.

Very good restoration. I wish I had a hobby like this instead of spending my time in bed all day feeling sorry for myself

I really appreciate how you let the finished product spin around a few times there at the end. I always have to press the pause/play button like a mad-man to enjoy the finer details... Please keep this

I love these videos so much, they are just so relaxing even though I don't take part in the hobby myself. The way you explain things is just very calming and informative without putting too much information out at once.

Yes!!! Love his voice

How can I ever forget this one. Legendary green colour and dual axle at front. Happy to see it again.

I watch enough of these videos I may start collecting Matchbox cars and restoring them. Great job.

While I have really gotten into watching these die-cast restoration, occasionally one comes along that kinda brings a lump to my throat as I recognise and old Matchbox that I remember having as a kid. This is one of those. Marvellous work and a very enjoyable video, thanks.

It is a real pleasure watching someone works with so much patience !!!Thanks for sharing !!!

Very cool and now that people have seen how to replace the axles someone needs to come up with a way for people without a machine lathe to be able to do this as well. Bravo!

great restore & tutorial about replacing the axles on an old matchbox. it's amazing the amount detail in the castings back then, such as the crane and the cab of the truck..

Love this guy. He's the Bob Ross of toy cars! Just put a happy little bush right there!

You sir are a genius! I dont have the time nor the patience to restore but I do love watching your videos!!

At work we call that truck a (mobile) boom winch, because the boom telescopes out, and the hook is attached to a winch. It only has left-right swing, and up-down lift. If it had its own tracks in the ground, with the ability to traverse back-forth, it would then be a gantry crane.

This show is so relaxing to watch, this piece came out amazing. The brass and the metal on the crane look great!

Again you are a master at what you do. Thank you for bringing these toys back with new life.

Yes! I was JUST watching your vids and hoping you'd upload a new one. Thanks man~ Love your content~

Is such a pleasure to hear you and watch you work.

Such a great restoration. That paint is flawless!

That looks fantastic, I cant believe the level of attention you give your restorations, absolutely awesome

You really have a nice Lesney collection. Trucks were my favorite as a kid, but really hard to come by without being broken. I always thought Matchbox made a truer to life scale model than Hot wheels, but certain ones won over. They can be called a "truck crane" without fear of reprisal, lol. a modern term is "boom truck", but "mobile crane" is what my father called it.

Thank you. I recently picked up a couple of cars that has the exact same type of axels, that I will try to restore. New to this type of the game. Your guide couldn't have come at better time!

The arm of the crane is called a boom. Excellent work as always!

One of my favorite castings! Thanks. It is so much meticulous work! And I love the way it turned out! I have 100's of cars that need this treatment! LOVE THE VIDEO!

What a superb result! Nice tip on using brass as an alternative to the original mild steel! Glad you are adding to the great Matchbox models in your collection. I have quite a few of these to restore. I may consider going Code 3 on some of them. I have recently discovered Marty’s Matchbox Motors and he also made a tool similar to yours (using two nails) for mushrooming the ends of the axles.

This technique is pretty dang nifty! Great video

Beautiful restoration! I had more Matchbox cars then I ever did Hot Wheels so I would like to see more of the good ole Matchbox vehicles restored. Thanks for sharing this great tutorial.

Great restoration. The vintage 1-75 are my favorites as well. Great tip on the axels.

Beautiful work, especially that new color choice. I'm also in awe that you managed to preserve as much of the raised details.

Finally a new video, been waiting for it sooo long ....

I just discovered this channel recently and find your restoration and customization videos very entertaining and fascinating, found your channel via KZread recommendations and so far it's been one of the best channels that KZread has recommended me so far!

Wow thanks!!

I enjoyed the detail and realism of these as a child also.

though i was born in 1992 i have a love and respect for vintage toys, vehicles and household display pieces and furniture

you do a great job in explaining the steps involved in restoration ...

Thank you for this amazing tutorial!! This No.30 is very special to me because this is my very first matchbox toy that I’ve ever owned. My dad bought it for me when I was between 5-8 years old. Secondly, I was born in 1965 so is this No.30. As usual I lost the original one decades ago but I can still remember how much of a good time I had with it. Luckily I managed to found a nos with a box from eBay a few years ago. When I received it the second time around, I had tears running down my face when I had this no.30 in my hand... looking forward to see more of your videos. Best regards!

Really loving the brass axles, gives the matchbox a vintage look. Like a tarnished chrome

Is it a coincidence that I only had access to European car models? I live in Ireland and built my matchbox collection as a kid in the 80’s. I had so much fun with these cars I even got a 3 story garage from Santa 😀. It was great to be a kid in a good home.

Awesome, thank you from us Matchbox collectors.

OK. That was very detailed. The result speaks for itself. Well done

Thanks for another great video. I especially liked getting a glimpse of a portion of your collection. Great work!

Thanks for sharing another great restoration, this one of one my favorite Lesney Matchbox vehicles!

Nice. I had that crane, cement truck and tow truck from matchbox. Great memories. I wish I still had my older matchbox and hot wheels as I know they are worth some money now

I have the same calipers!! I’ve been using them for over 11 years and I love them

this one was my favorite video so far. THat was one of my favorites when I was a kid.

Great job on the reassembly of the wheels and axle! I too have tons of vintage matchbox and several of these 8 wheeled cranes. Looks good in red and the silver.

One of my favorite channels, thank you sir!

I really love these old Matchbox cars, I would really like to restore one of these. Great job.

This is a really nice restoration and I like the fact you decided to have a change of color scheme, it makes the model and process more interesting ☺

Cool restoration on the matchbox

That Turnd out nice I've been trying to get into restoring and have watched all your videos and now I'm one step closer thanks

Gotta say, I can really tell the effort you put into editing this video and I fully appreciate that! Thanks for the great videos, can't wait to see more!

That colour scheme looks fantastic.

Going with silver on the crane section really set this one off.....in fact, I thought it even made it look less like a “toy”. I received my first Matchbox in 1964: still have it, along with 200 others in official Matchbox carrying cases. Have to dig those out one day and see just what kind of condition they are in. Keep up with these zen-like videos....better than meditation!

Love your vids You are the Bob Ross of 1:64 art Thanks for sharing

Nice work. I probably had more Matchbox than Hotwheels when I was a kid.

Yes!! Thank you Baremetal!! I’ve been patiently waiting for a video on how to make these type of axles!! I have 2 restorations I’ve been holding off on because I didn’t know how to go about the axles! Thank you thank you thank you! Now I can proceed! Must go get supplies first lol I’ll give you a shout out when I upload that video 👍🏽

I hope to see more Matchbox restorations. They were my favorites when I was a little boy.

Great video man, keep up the good work. Your attention to detail when you narrate your videos really make learning the process easy.

Great job, man. I'm getting back into scale modelling, and will be using some of the techniques I've learned from you to color in small details such as the chrome pen, using a sharpie for red lights, and turtle wax for polishing. Most importantly, I'm going into it with the same easygoing mindset you exemplified in this video of painting the toy in colors you wanted to see instead of rigidly adhering to historical accuracy. Thanks for the inspiration :)

I havent restored a mtchbox for this reason , now i know how to do that, thanks máster

This is great -- can't wait for more Matchbox videos!

You are artisan on this bussines, you inspire me a lot.

Nice. I just watched a guy the other day called Marty's Matchbox Makeovers who has a nice process for removing and reusing the original axles. He only has a few videos but they are all informative.

I love this build, the brass axles look amazing. Theres another guy on KZread named Marty's matchbox makeovers. He has a great way to remove the axles without cutting them. That way they could be reused if you wanted to. As always great video and I cant wait for the next one.

This is so fascinating. Thank you for the amazing content!

Great video I love your work and the thought put into each one can’t wait to see your next video already .

Отличный результат!

Wow looks nice, lots of crafting skills here!

AWESOME, I TOTALLY AGREE, ON THE LESNEY AERA. THANKS FOR YOUR TIPS. 🏁

Wow. It's beautiful! Darn I wish I had the money and the space to have all the tools that are needed to do things like the tool you did to make the end of the axle of those.

Another great video, you have inspired me to give restoring diecast toy cars a go, have a look at nail set punch to dome the axles.

Excellent job as usual! Man I just love your videos

Looks great! The axles have always kept me from doing one of these.👍🏼👍🏼

Very nice 😃 cherished toys deserve love

oh boy, it's amazing seeing all my old toys on KZread! I actually broke the crane on this one :(

Looking really good! It kind of reminds me of a firetruck now. :)

Again.. simply amazing
