MATCHBOX Restoration No.73b Ferrari race car 1962

- This resto did NOT go to plan! - The paint took forever to harden ( Prob my fault ) and the decals started to split and come off during re-assembly. The end result is not really worthy of posting. The thing is, that I had invested so many man hours into this video that I could not just write it off and move on.
I had one video for the week and had to run with it. Hopefully, the early content is of interest to those of you who wish to try out new things and see some new techniques.
I will be the first to admit that the end results are less than perfect but, I promise that I shall revisit these two models and show you how they eventually turned out in a future video. I hope you can wait!
In the meantime, please enjoy the video for what it is and stay to the end to watch the race between me and 'Kevin the Koala' around the iconic Melbourne, Albert Park Lake, Grand Prix circuit!

Good little makeover, even with the problems.
Cute race scene! Kevin is in fine form.
Nice tip the shrinking tube to mark the depth of the drill .... Great job on both even if you don't think so. All the best Marty
Come for the resto. Stay for the theatre. 😊👍👍
Great race scene Marty, keep up the good work. You’ll get Kevin someday.
Hi Marty,
Well done - always appreciate guys sharing things going not the planned ways. Nothing better to learn from. So - thanks a lot for this one!
And as always : seeing Kevin again with his evil mind is a nice laughter.
Thanks from the other side of our world, all the best to you, Tom
Once again, another awesome video Marty. To bad you lost it on that corner. Have a shot, I think you need it🥃. Can't wait for the next video. Stay safe.
A FABULOUS restoration job!!... They both look better than they did when they left the Lesney Factory!!.. Keep up the great work Bud!!.
Aside from the wonderful restoration work you do, I think the well paced editing is the most engaging aspect of your videos. I would be remiss however if I didn't also give credit to your entertaining script and narration. Such a joy to watch. Thanks again Marty and crew!
Awesome, thank you!
I agree. Your set-ups, lighting and editing are some of the best out there. Your videos have become the standard that others are judged against.
@@johnf.kennedy5454 Thankyou for saying John I really and honestly appreciate your feed back!
Hi Marty I was wondering how many people help you with your videos? Is it just you and Kevin?
I agree that the color was as close to Ferrari red as possible, both cars look great, save for the decal problem. And that Kevin is such a scoundrel. Stay safe!
*Kevin is the winner! Can we believe it?! Incredible (and the restoration too!)😃👍👍*
Really nice models. I love that style race car from when I was a kid. Takes me back to watching races on TV. The models came out nice considering using paint you weren't familiar with. Enjoyed the racing at the end. Great photography and choreography. Thanks Marty.
Awesome restoration, Marty !!!!!!!!!! Absolutely loved this episode !!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
loved the race and bloopers. both casting looks great
Well done my friend, she is beautiful once again. That heat shrink idea is brilliant.
That photo of the park and lake is beautiful, great shot.👍
Super gluing the wires will not work because the super glue wicks between the wires out to the ends and glues all the wires together.
Here is an idea for you.
When using the a wire wheel/cup to clean up a casting.
Get a large storage bin/tub of clear plastic or cut a viewing window in it and cover with plexiglass, cut access holes for your hands and tool cords etc kinda like a sanding booth and polish the casting under that bin/tub so the wires are trapped under it when they come off, get a neodymium magnet to collect up the loose ones.
That little casting came out amazing
Kevin is a little stinker greasing up the track like that.
Thanks for sharing

Great restoration Marty the race was a good one that Kevan bested you again !!
Beautiful home, clear picture, editing, narration, newspapers, format, Kevin skits, serious, yet light tone, history of Matchbox and passion for what you do. You are truly a golden standard in this Matchbox restoration field on UA-cam.
Wow, thank you!
Agreed! It's all why I'm a Patreon supporter!
Great custom work, and great race! I think the other guy had the advantage, he looked a little short, more aerodynamic, LOL! FUN!!! 👍
The heat shrink is genius!
The restoration may not have gone to plan but the end race seqence was a riot! Love your work.
Looks really good Marty. Your humility and humble manner makes a very good video indeed. Keep them coming! Stay safe regards Andrew
They both turned out fantastic. That Kevin is a dastardly little devil 👍👍😊
I’m soooo glad you have fun with your cars Marty 🇨🇦
I laughed all thru the race, Marty. You guys did a great job!
I almost ended up with burned spaghetti sauce because of it. XD Excellent outro! lol
Mate, your videos could NEVER be a "complete loss". Not when the videos are as informative and entertaining as they are. Thanks for another great episode!
Thanks George, I honestly really appreciate your feedback, I dropped the ball on this one but tried to make it entertaining none the less!
Great job Marty! Really Boss to see Kevin and you at it again even though Kevin seems to always get he best of you..... looking forward to your future builds. 🐨
G'day Marty, a very clever video race with Kevin. The restoration was well done as well. Regards, Tom USA
Love the hammer sound.
And the race was some of your best special effects. 😃
Nice restoration and paint job 👌
I thought for sure there'd be a gag involving the cat, but Kevin showed up! Great job on the car, I love the red.
😁 Excellent! Lot of effort on your part and a lot of fun had here. Thank you 👍
Hello Marty, in the end every of your Videos is worth to be posted. The result of the shown car is way not to bad and the problems shown will help other restaurators to prevent them. Nice clip, and you should have learned never to trust Kevin! even in a challenge or race.... Greetings from Germany .
Learn and laugh. Great work. Thank you for showing mistakes, that's a good way of learning.
Kevin is a dangerous little bugger. The Ferrari looked great, you can see the decal is ripped inn the race close up, pity that after all your hard work, well done.
Excelent restoration for that Ferrari Race car (F1).Great Koala intervention !😁👍
That Kevin won the race is not surprising, as he gets a lot more practice driving at high speeds with all the police chases he's involved in, and he also has a 100+ pound weight advantage on you. Maybe he'll give you a rematch when you redo the car. I think Phil Hill would be proud of Kevin's great skills behind the wheel driving his Championship car.
I'm not surprised he won either, considering he stitched Marty up with an oil slick on the track. The cheating little bugger..lol
@@ferolcat2009 I think this younger generation that Kevin was raised in was taught first place or nothing. Second place is the first loser. Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat .LOL!
Enjoy your videos immensely. Cheers from North Carolina in the U.S.
Marty, do not be so hard on yourself. I thought the video was quite well done. i couldn't really see anything wrong with the models. The race was a hoot and now I know why Kevin had the map and the oil. Thank you for brightening up my day and best wishes from Canada to everyone there at your home and to your friends around the globe.
Hey Clare, so glad you enjoyed it. It's not all about the restorations anymore, if I have a fail I will leave it in if there is something new or entertaining then I shall post it. Thanks for the feedback, makes me feel that I should just keep going regardless!
@@MartysMatchboxMakeovers If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Your videos are great just as they are or as a teacher of mine used to say, "warts and all". Press on!
@@BigLisaFan Greetings Clare! Hope all is well.
The race sequence was awesome!!!
Excellent screen work.. the race was epic🤣🤣👍👍
Hi Marty. I used Tamiya pink primer and Tamiya TS-8 Italian Red straight out of the spray cans in mine. Very forgiving paint.
Kevin is one naughty koala. Very creative.
Hi marty, don't feel bad if it doesn't go exactly how you want. They still came out looking great
It was going so well' ...still they look great and worth the race at the end. brilliant' thanks for sharing.
You did a fantastic job.. thank you for such an inspiring video
Hello Marty.Greetings from Hamm/Westf.in Germany.I have been wachting your Vides for many months.At first i always had to smile because there was someone there who repaired small cars.But then i watched more and more videos of you and got more and excidet.Now i can`t wait for a new one to come.I tried it too...i better leave it.Sorry for my bad english,i had to use a translation programm.
Was Du ausdrücken möchtest, kommt zu 100% rüber. Ich stimme dir zu 😁👍🏼 Gruß aus Cuxhaven
(What you want to express comes across 100%. I agree with you 😁👍🏼 Greetings from Cuxhaven.)
Another great video Marty. I just watched with my 15 year old daughter. Gotta give her something good to watch on UA-cam.
Still watch all your stuff marty it’s absolutely amazing what you’re doing , I still look back on my truck you transformed, I think I was the first to send you something to save , your doing amazing mate , I’m in Wollongong next year I may just knock your door for a cuppa ,
Come on around if able, would be good to catch up!
Just love the endings with KEVIN! 🐨
This is a great model and a wonderful restoration. And the race at the end is so funny! 😅
Love the race scene! The visuals were awesome!
love the restoration, those old Ferrari F1 cars are wild. With the enamels, lighter coats with longer drying times between coats works best. It should take 4 or so light coats to cover and give you a nice sheen.
BEST EVER....KEVIN NEEDS TO GET HIS OWN SHOW....LOL
That race is the funniest yet...
Impressive, most impressive.
Another excellent restoration! As a fellow modeler I appreciate your attention to detail and the ever clean work space. Too bad on the decals. It was difficult to see the problems when the car was displayed on the carousel but was much more visible in the "race" close ups.
One suggestion, white primers brightens up the paint of bright and vibrant colors, due to the fact the paints are really translucent. I suggest that you repaint the red on both cars and undercoat / prime only one with the white. I think you'll see it makes a big difference. This is a technique I was taught in design school. Thanks again.

It looks good to me and despite what you call flaws you still show an awesome car. Love the race too
You've outdone yourself with the race at the end, great job!
Great job,Marty! The race at the end was so funny,Thanks,Marty :)
As an American, I love this!! Go Phil Hill!!
Can I just say something to Marty? The reason why I'm hardly ever interested in watching you; restore these old Matchbox toy cars is that, I took up interest into getting into the business of selling plastic models, of all shapes and sizes. That's in the very way, how I want to run a hobby store. It would be pretty radical also, if you would create paint that changes color.
I haven't seen very much of you lately; especially when I used to see you at work, restoring all of these old timer Matchbox toy cars.👀😕😐🤔😔😪👀
Hi Marty from Worcestershire in UK hope you are well and family two great video and keep up the good work 👍
Marty, your videos are a joy to watch.
'I'm gently kissing the end'. I'm happy with that :)
Glad you raced a F1 car in anger in Australia this year. Perhaps as homage to World Champ Lewis Hamilton you repaint as a Mercedes Silver Arrow number 44. Then have a rematch with naughty Kev in his Ferrari and you beat him fair and square. I’m a huge fan, going live on UA-cam soon. I will send you a Dinky kit to paint in your old squadron colors. I’ll be in touch. Loved the special effects, especially on the spinning wheels with the racing stripes! Big love Peter.
Pete connoly? - Your names rings a bell ....are you ex RAF by any chance?
I could watch this video over and over again....!
Actually I have
Outstanding work and video - to be fair I was watching on my phone but I did not even notice the decal issue and would not have if you hadn’t mentioned it. Great video Well worth the wait!
Your failures exceed my triumphs! (and I loved the finale)
Hello. Marty. Good. To. See. U. An. Yours. Are. Ok. Love. Watching. Your. Videos. Very. Much. The. Race. Was. Fun. As. Well. 😃. Lee
Nice builds and gave me a chuckle at the end. Next time loosen Kevin’s wheels nuts before the race.
Me encanta tu sentido de humor I love your humor sense
You’re just too hard on yourself, Marty! This is a stinker of a model, and the paint let you down. Even so, the restorations were great. The green screen blooper reel is priceless!
Oh Kevin....Cheaters never prosper. Love the extras at the end. I’ve had problems with enamel paint not curing on metal bars for a piece of a costume I made. That part rested on my shoulders and I had the uncured, sticky paint pulling and rubbing at my skin all weekend. It was not fun and I ended up removing all of the paint and covering the whole thing in vinyl.
A very nice model and a very nice car in real life; before Ferrari shredded them all, that is.
A silver lining I see is that when you go back to the decals you may place the one that goes across the top of the nose and at an angle for the full vintage look.
Thank you for everything you do, Marty! You made the best of a bad situation as far as the paints you can get, and you're still putting forth the effort to provide quality content. I get a sense of much-needed normalcy when watching your videos, and we all need that right about now with what's going on.
Kudos for the camera crews' work out at the racetrack - quite exciting up close action! There is a saying in America, don't know if you have it in your neck of the wood's - "Payback is a b----." I have a feeling that Kevin should keep his helmet handy if he knows what's good for him. At the very least, he should be on short rations with the eucalyptus leaves for a while!
Did like your idea of using the heat-shrink tubing as a depth stop. Carry on, mate!
A good restoration marty, one word about decals. Once applied and the water has dried, try coating the model with satin varnish. This helps seal the decals to the model. Don’t rely on the adhesive of the decal alone it’s simply not strong enough, and you could find that over time they’ll peel off.
My very first matchbox restoration was one of these! They’re great.
Yay. Marty and Kevin are back. Great stuff.
Sharp looking decals and parts too!!
Looks like some of those parts will require a bit of metalwork though..
epic final!
I have the matchbox formula one to restore so thank you for this video marty
Hi there Marty love your channel , I have tip for you If you want add speed control to your Dremel tool , Get the foot pedal from a portable sewing machine .I've had mine set up like this for years . Thank you Jimmy R.
I love Morty. He looks like a very good cat :)
mortys matchbox makeovers
Loved the ending on this one 😎👍
Funnily enough I’ve just restored this exact model as well, just need a driver n decals to finish it off,
I had a couple of happy accidents that you might be interested in, my small hand chuck handle broke but I found it then fitted in my electric screwdriver and that is spot on for drilling out posts with much more control!
Also I had a button nose seize with a micron to go, went to drill out then when flange was nearly gone I realised I could just hit it with a tiny socket and it now totally looks like the original rivet!
Great video. Nice idea the "heat shrink" for drilling depth! Excellent job on the steering wheel. I enjoyed the final race, hope you have recovered from injuries ☺️
Great remake Marty. Hope the makeover makeover goes a little smoother. I don't know why you do things with Kevin. He's always messing up things for you. You're like Charlie Brown to his Lucy with the football. Great video Marty!
3.0L V10 F1 Sounds!! Great video!!
What a great way to end the weekend with a Marty's Matchbox Makeover! The Ferrari looks great and while I know you had issues with the paint they both look very good. Thanks for sharing this and keep an eye on Kevin.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great job Marty that was a difficult casting
Top marks on the race scene! Build was pretty good as well :-)
Mighty fine entertainment and damn nice work, too. Thank you , sir.
Thanks for sharing the Ferrari makeovers even with the slight mistakes, Marty. They still look pretty decent anyway. Kevin and his shenanigans...😂 Best Green-screen work yet! Thanks for all you do. Hope you all have a great week.👍🏼🤘🏼😎
Hello Marty, always fun, entertaining, and informative. That’s why we keep coming back. Thanks, Marty and all involved.
My absolutely favourite F1 race car! I got a 1/43 scale one of these for Christmas in 1962! Corgi, I think.
We learn from all. Thanks for sharing
Excellent Marty! Always looking forward to watching your videos on a Sunday morning! Your creativity and talent is unmatched. And videos are entertaining! Keep up the great work! Greetings from New York USA!😁😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Top job again Marty, loved the race at the end!
Nice job on the small fine details too!!
Love the race at the end. (And have my very beat up version of the same car in front of the screen!)
Marty, I have used a food dehydrator to cure enamel paint for many years of building scale model cars. I also use them for Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars.
