You went from an unknown to my favorite UA-camr in a week! That says alot since I am subbed to so many channels. I hope you never stop and you keep the format the same.
David Holcomb ....Here Here!!! Marty, IMO you are doing everything right. Music volume, humor, instructional value, problem solving, clear communication, photography....I can go on and on. Fabulous work!
Havent watched this yet, but my girlfriend and I will watch it together. the Stalwart is our favourite matchbox car EVER! I'd love to know more about BP's use of them in oil exploration. I saw a film that showed them many years ago, but have never seen it since...
Has a kid I had this very model. When I was 7 we moved to South Africa and over a period of about 4 years my little brother decided to bury all my cars in in the back garden! So if you live in Kraaifontein get your metal detector out you might find one with the canopy!
He is everyone's favorite Matchbox restorer David. Everyone and everything sticks with Marty, including his glue, brushes, ruler and assorted implements. Nice job Marty. Keep those restorations coming mate. I have you on speed dial.
I went to my late parents house to spend new year with the family and found my old stalwart in pretty much that condition in a box in the attic. I will have a go myself. Thanks marty! I remember these supplying our ammo in Germany in the 1970s and 80s, swimming across the Wesser.

This caught my eye because last week I found an old box from my childhood. Three little wheels rolled out. They were from a No.61 Alvis Stalwart I bought new when I was a kid. The matchbox was there inside its original box. At the time, I played with both, so they were a little worse for wear, but are still pretty nice. I know this because now it is sitting on my desk as I type. I don't have many of those cars from my childhood left, so to see you restore this one made my day. Now to find three little wheels
Probably one of those "keep it original" jerks. I bet they're concerned about its "value" (worthless in such condition, no matter what the price guides say). That, or they think that every old toy is a priceless cultural artifact and that restoring it is an affront to the company that pumped out millions of the things as cheaply as possible just a few decades ago. Screw the price guide commandos, and screw those that would rather see something rot away than be brought back to life and enjoyed for another 50 years.

Same newspaper in the paint booth as last time. Unsubscribed.😆 Joking aside, this was another of my childhood forgotten favourites. I had a flashback memory of me and my friend Mark using this and other trucks to recreate that movie 'The Wages of Fear', in which some guys transported explosives through the jungle, across rivers and rickety old bridges, etc. As always, thank you for the memories.
Absolutely loved this video. Many thanks for rescuing that wee Alvis. I remember having it as a kid. I was 9 in 1966 so probably added it to my collection when it was first released. These were actually die cast scale models of real vehicles and me and my mates had shed loads of them. What do kids play with today? Heaps of plastic junk.
I hope the Marty Magic continues for a long time to come. Where else on the internet can you find such a genial character, using humour, and wit as well as sharing the techniques so that any person can have a go at restoring an old remant of childhood. No matter how battered and neglected, Marty pulls off the Lazarus trick. An inspiration and all round good egg!
Thanks, John, I'm not sure what you mean ( Lazarus trick), but I'm hoping that it means that you will continue to watch and enjoy my channel!!! - :) ( Big smile from me)!
Missing rivets... well.. there *IS* something you can do... a toothpick dipped in CA (super glue) dotted where the rivets should be will fix that up, and after the undercoat, nobody will ever know. Except you. (and obviously me... but who am *I* going to tell? The Matchbox police? Wait... is there a Matchbox police?? I WAS NEVER HERE!!!!)
I was thinking the same thing about adding the rivets. Adding just a few dots. You could probably use a CA (Super glue) Gel which would, stand up and not run, that would probably work.

Great piece of work!!!! Wonder if just for fun, you might take one of your duplicate cars, and redo it with a twist, paint all the chrome, taillights and even the interior in a full custom. Sort of an over the top thing in which you give it the look of a real car like one might add to a model train set or something similar!
I was thinking that too. Add some paints to the details and make it look more realistic but then it wouldn't look like a Matchbox anymore. Maybe on one that he has duplicates of.

@@redrider7730 Not so fast. Many of those are the Weekly World News, a sadly now-defunct publication that gleefully printed all sorts of weird nonsense. You had it all: Fortean rains of fish, cryptids, lizard people, UFOs, all that kind of wonderful Illuminated bullshit, and all of it invented whole cloth. Unfortunately, the publisher decided that doing hit pieces on celebrities and pushing his political agenda were more important than actually entertaining people, so he axed it. So, while I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of WWN covers, the ones Marty has used look genuine.

Your monitor is providing transmitted colours using RGB, your printer is creating reflected colours using CYMK, and what you really need to do is calibrate your monitor and your printer so that they are somewhat consistent with each other's colours. But the gear to calibrate these things is a bit pricey. So get a selection of colour wheels with a variety of shades and print that out on your printer. Then choose the output colour (from the print out) that you'd like the decal to be and use that to create the decal regardless of what it looks like on screen as you are making it. www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.aspwww.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp
That glue spill reminds me of the many times I did that myself. The BP Exploration Stalwart vehicle was always my favorite Matchbox die cast. I can't remember how many I bought as a kid but that and all of the BP vehicles were great. You really did this the justice it deserves. Great job and thanks for sharing this.
