    Worth watching your videos if only for your sense of humour. Love Kevin and his antics and also the way you carefully choose the News headlines in your Paint booth. Keep up the good work.

    If you aren't a Patreon supporter you should be. The time and effort that went into Kevin's oops is just crazy.
    Marty, with all the new camera angles you've stepped it up again! Definitely noticed by this viewer.

    Excellent save MARTY. Kept the originality to spot on duplication.
    Wouldn't it be glorious to actually own a real restored truck like that!
    Here in the USA - Old Big Trucks - Semi Trucks/Tractors Restorations is a Mania with the auto collectors. Guys are after anything they can find - as long as it is BIG!

    Kevin strikes again! The truck looks great and it brings back a lot of memories. I had one too and it was one of my favorites. I think it is because it was a simple little toy with an interesting shape and color scheme. Your right, simple toys for a simpler time.

    Hi Marty, I really enjoy watching your videos. As non native English speaker subtitles are very helpfull to fully enjoy the video. I don't know how much time it takes to activate this. If it is a real pain then never mind, otherwise I would be happy with that. Thank you and overall thank you for all those makeovers. They remind me the time when I was playing with those Mathbox cars, back in the 60's.

    I've got to say, I've seen some other UA-cam channels featuring refurbishing Matchboxes. And while the modelers are good, your models come out better. You do a cleaner build, with results that really do look like they just came off the line. Yours are the best!
