MATCHBOX Restoration 27c Cadillac Sixty Special 1960

Doing a makeover on a model which requires a two tone paint scheme, has a painted windscreen, a broken tow hitch and is showing the years of neglect is one thing, but doing two in one makeover is....errrr....two things?!
These two vehicles were quite the challenge and I had to try my best to overcome each hurdle that was presented to me. One of those hurdles was near to the end when I had to strip both models back to the metal due to failed paint jobs! - Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I always remember the joy of finally finishing a model and realising that I have won another battle.
Some of you may notice a subtle change, I have a new camera. I recorded everything in 4K vision but it was going to take so long to render and upload the massive files that they would not have been out before midnight here in Australia. That is my deadline and , as always, I was panicked towards the end thinking that I would not make it. I hope you all can appreciate how stressful this hobby can be but that the rewards are well worth it.

    We never stop learning. My dad died last year 2 months short of his 84th birthday. I moved the small town where he was living to help him out a few years before. He was an avid cook, as am I. Anyway my point is. I made a couple dishes he had never even heard of before, and loved them.

    Marty, you say you’re not a professional and I would have to disagree. Your videos and the work you do on these models are some of the best original restorations that I have come across. I’ve seen most of the videos that you’ve posted and watched several other people try to restore matchbox and hot wheels cars, and I think that the work you do is some of the best I’ve seen if not the best. I would be honored to have one of the models that you have restored. If I had a vintage Leslie I would definitely send it to you to restore. Don’t underestimate yourself and keep on restoring these vintage models for future generations to enjoy.

    Hi Marty, those two were really a challenge. What with the globs of paint everywhere, the manufacturing of the two new tow bars, and working with custom blended metallic paints, you did, as always, a magnificent job. And you are so nice, using items and suggestions from viewers, that more than once have been very disastrous. You're a good man, Marty. Thanks for another entertaining video. Sorry you are under the weather. Hot toddy time. See ya next time.
