  • DECALS..... www.sk75works.co.uk/ Quality made waterslide decals for 1/64th scale diecast cars by myself.
    It’s a two for one special in this episode as I take a 1983 Matchbox Kenworth Cabover and marry it with a 1970 Matchbox Beach Buggy to make my own twist on a team transporter. I was never particularly fond of either as a kid so this needs a little bit more magic than usual.

    Very impressive work. I have purchased hundreds of Hot Wheels and Matchbox in the 1960s and 1970s for my kids, in the early 2000s for a grandson and now have 2 twin great grandsons I have started purchasing for. I enjoy watching the work you people do on these toys

    awesome. :) now we have a Rad Bull team! ^.^ this is the first buggy I've ever seen with the headlights on, and you just shaved them off. XD well, they do look out of place.
    great work on the truck, too. love those wheels, they are just the right size, too. :) and now the truck looks like it could follow the buggy down the baja. :)
    awesome decals, too. ^^
    I think matchbox' convoy trucks were meant to go with H0/00 scale, which is why they never fit into any other matchbox series. majorette did a similar series for a while, and those were stated to be 1:87 scale, but they sat way too high on their too-small wheels in favour of a suspension, and I think they were more a 1:72 scale.

      Many thanks Lothar.... Its an odd scale, I'm just glad the more modern Hot Wheels Transporter sets look better fitting and compliment each other😁👍🏎🚙🚕🚓🚗
