  • I purchased this toy 1930s Marx Wyandotte Sedan on eBay July of 2020. It was in great restore-able shape for its age being almost 90 years old. The headlights were busted, wheels shot, lots of corrosion and had the original battery. I replicated a battery label to put on a modern battery in order to keep it as original looking as possible. I The color did not come out quite how I wanted but I was still very happy with it. Thanks for watching!

      @@Frankowillo yeah, maybe use a vibrating plate to ensure all the pigment is completely mixed together after hand mixing. Although you'd probably have to do a few test pieces to see exactly how the colour would come out as it'll look different after curing, but if it works, you can just keep a note of your ratios for next time. You could even have little containers with premixed custom colours if you think you'd need them again soon

I do to furniture essentially what you do to metal keepsakes. It's very inspiring, thanks loads for recording your excellent & intriguing work.

    I just love what you, and all the Toys you restore, and the Tools that you have to do it! If we were neighbors, I'd be pestering you to let me help all the time! LOL

    Thank's for keeping it green. The tire process fascinated me!. But a little petroleum jelly on the shaft might help with the tires in the future. I like how you smooth the metal edges. Back in the thirties they did not think about safety as much as they do now.
