MATCHBOX Restoration No 38b Vauxhall Victor 1963
This station wagon was a favourite choice for large families. With its spacious boot and powerful engine, this car became England's most exported vehicle of its time!
These cars were often seen in summer heading off towards the coast towing caravans, boats or camper trailers.
It became the annual holiday vehicle of choice for the cash strapped families of the 60s.

Imagine my surprise to discover a makeover that I had missed! A delightful find on a Sunday afternoon!
My weekend isn't complete without Marty's Matchbox Makeovers...
Hello, very good Marty restoration, the fame of elvis has no borders, but on Mars its popularity comes.
Nice restore. Great job.
Your humor really adds to the enjoyment of your videos!
Loved presentation. Such micro precision. I also loved BLOOPERS at the end.
Another beautiful restoration, and entertaining viedo. Thanks for sharing to us.
I use these videos as a form of meditation. The Marty Method is so relaxing!
Another saved model, well done Marty ! The light yellow color is very fresh !
A great pair of restorations Marty, but us lucky viewers are the Victors too.
Look, an unboxing video within a restoration video! Brilliant!!!
You made Vauxhall great again 👍👍👍👍👍 !
Another great video, kudos too you for improvising.
My Grandfather had a Victor saloon in sky blue with the front bench seat. Fun fact about him is that he learnt to drive BEFORE there was a driving test and he had driven a steam lorry! During WW2 he once had the job as a home guard of guarding a big hole caused by a V1.
Another fantastic restoration!
Marty, the master of matchbox innovation.
I like that you lose little sleep that it's not 100% original... beautiful work.
Amazing restoration 👍🏽😎
Another fantastic restoration! Another model I had as a child. I was fully expecting you to scream “Kevin” when you were digging through the vacuum!
As always great to watch you work
Fantastic restoration
Elvis must have stopped on the way home to Alpha Centauri and put a statue of himself for us to find on Mars. Nice straight on restoration by the "king" of matchbox restorers!🤴🏻
A superb restoration
Another impeccable restore, Marty!
I'm always impressed with your ingenuity
Always enjoy these match box mania vids....
BEAUTIFUL JOB MARTY
Very nice work. Love the green interior. More Kevin.👍
You really brighten up my day Marty. My Dad used to have a Vauxhall Victor saloon which was sadly smashed into many pieces by a Lorry while parked outside our house. Greetings from South Wales, U.K.
Thanks, Marty. I swear man, these are therapeutic for me.
Love your paper in your pant booth
Great video and restoration.
Really nice job on the hitch mod...cool restoration.
Great restoration
Great job! Well done on that tow hitch.
Cut the icecreamsticks Down the middle. 😉 And with an Electric toothbrush you get the work done even faster and can make even more videoes. That Julie is a GEM!
Really nice job on the tow hitch.
I’m always enjoying your videos. Thank you for the work you put into the models and video.
Superb work!!! Very well done.
Fantastic work.
I fix commercial kitchen equipment for a living... I find myself saying, "I'm happy with that" all the time now 😅
Excellent work sir. Fascinating video.
I came for restorations and stayed for the little gags, today’s was hilarious!
Another piece of art!!
I love watching you restore old Matchbox cars. They always look beautiful when your done

Another job well done Marty.
I watch a lot of Matchbox restoration videos, but lately, I fast forward through most of them, except for your videos. The comedy element sets yours apart from the others. Great work, Marty. You're the best.
Gotta luv the dragon kits with all there extra spare bits
Well done sir, looks super.
Wow Marty, that wagon turned out beautiful. Nice job on the trailer hitch.
Marty only uploads when he finds a new news heading
Go easy on her, mate. Everyone deserves a break. No harm, no foul.
That yellow came out great! nice work.
Nice job. Unusual for a drill bit to bend like that, must be very soft. When I put that statue on Mars I thought it wouldn't be found for a hundred years or so...
The green one looks best imho. Well done.
Very entertaining. The model came out very nice.
Really well done, Marty.
Awesome work
As always great job Thanks
I look forward to your videos every week!
Came for the Matchbox cars. Stayed for the tabloid headlines.

My dad had one those Vauxhall’s back in the day Marty …the real motor …I think it was two colours a Green & beige …cheers !
Statue of Elvis found on Mars😵 Jajaja Gracias Marty por tu humor y tus videos
Nice recovery of that model Martin..
😜Well done with the word play, Marty😜 The Jet is waaaaaaay better now. 👍🏼⚡️
Great job Marty. You wouldn’t believe the items I’ve pulled from our vacuum over the years. My kids did not believe in picking things up first. Ha
Marty thanks for bringing this hobby to light. I took it up shortly after seeing one of your videos. Now I enjoy your videos and enjoy hunting for old matchbox cars and attempting to restore them in my own hobby room.

I have many matchbox cars that need to be restored. You can see them on E-Bay soon. MHK201
Fantastic work!
Fantabulous!
I like the red interior better with the yellow, the mint one would go real nice with that white you were thinking of keeping. Great job!
Great Job Marty👍👍👍
Fantastic video thank you Marty!
EXCELENTE!!!
Great job Marty!
The action of the vacuum cleaner (finding that amount of Matchbox) and the statue of Elvis found on Mars, are worthy of an Oscar. Your mood is of a beauty, very chic. Viva Marty.!!
Don't change a thing! I am happy with that! Wow Marty, a DUK for your tactical combat force! Cool!
Excellent as usual cobber very cool tow hitch idea
Great job! I like the color match and thr repair in the hitch. Thanks
nice one,again,Marty.
Always love the gags you put in your show, every show is great.

I owned this car in Canada in the 1960’s. The refurbished model looks great. Well done. Alan
Great job!
I love how you take the old Matchbox toys and make them alive again. And you do such a great job with skill and humor. Looks like Elvis has left the planet!
That's a cool yellow.
I'm happy with that!
Vauxhalls are not common in the US, but as a teen a buddy had two of them. The 1965 looked like somebody washed a 55 Chevy and it shrunk, the 67 was same deal but looked like a shrunken 57 Chevy. Cool little cars. Funny how he liked little cars... he was a huge guy.
Should make a roof rack and surfboard for one of them!
We need “I’m Happy With That” shirts with the Triple-M logo on it!!
