    I can only say that if I did that job I'd be very happy and proud to have restored a half century old toy to show room condition. Thank you Danny from Buffalo,NY for the joy your video brings.

    It would be great if you were able to see who gives the thumbs down and block them. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this restoration. You did an amazing job and took me back to my childhood with this.

    Boy Danny You Did Well Here With The Dodge Truck Just Like The Day it was Made!!!

Your Photos Showed It Just As Was And My Memories Of It Came Running To My Mind!!!

    I always loved that model - the actual vehicle was rare here in the UK, and I only ever saw them at a couple of local US Air Force bases, where of course, they were in a drab green colour, which actually looked superb. Nevertheless, my young brother and I went through several models in the sandpit. The non 'Superfast' wheels always, always looked better on them. I think that the model would make a rather cool 'Mad Max' type vehicle. It has a mean, no nonsense air about it. Even if you had a model that had lost its Buck, (the tipping part), you could fabricate something for the rear.
    Lovely restoration job! Nice one.

    @mopar_dude9227 Před 4 lety

    Nice job Danny, a super clean restoration. I just purchased a couple of these online, one is missing the dump bed so I figure I will make it into a stake bed. Starting to get more into some of the older Matchbox castings. Just finished up the Dodge Wrecker and have one unrestored. As always, thanks for sharing and take care.

    @railtrolley Před 4 lety

    Superb. Didn't realise this was your first resto. Great result. I have one waiting for its turn in the paint booth, and the 3rd axle is also bent. Strange coincidence. I must have an earlier production variant. Base is full length with 3 rivets. It does not have the towing guide under the front bumper. Does not have the Hydrosleeve (the black plastic unit the middle arm of the tipper bed drops into) How many Matchbox could be collected with the slight variations of each model produced?

  • @richardunicorn7879
    @richardunicorn7879 Před 4 lety

    Wow!! That red is exactly like the original color. Did you have to mix up this color or is it straight from the jar? As always, excellent job, I like the all original restoration.
