So incredibly handsome Sierra became. When you rebuild these small cars, I get extremely excited. These are wonderful details and a huge job you put into them. The Sierran was a wonderful car. It was rear-wheel drive. So we had a lot of fun here in Sweden in the winter. Looking forward to the next project. Why not a Matchbox Volvo 480 for the convertible?

Hello there! I do believe that when Matchbox switched operations to Macau, some of the tooling, of various models, 'went on a tour' of the local region, like Hong Kong, and mainland China. The result of this, being knock-off models that looked like Matchbox, but on closer inspection obviously weren't. Parts fit, finish and weight in the hand are obvious giveaways - I've encountered them at car boot sales in the past. Some are very convincing. Others are rather poor. Some have rubbish interiors and glazing, and thick paint. Yours turned out beautiful. That red just jumps out at you. You mentioning Australia made me think: have you ever had one of the Hot Wheels 1973 Ford Falcon XB models? It's a great looking car, and I was wondering, other than the obvious 'Mad Max' customs, if it was ever used as a race car? Another great model of an iconic and powerful Australian vehicle, is the 2010 Matchbox Holden Ute SSV. That might be fun to work on.

Hi Brain, hope you're well. I do have a Machbox Falcon which I think is a 90's, maybe 00's car.

Great custom work, mate. MC Toys is what later became Maisto, and their older castings used to be ones that look similar to Matchbox made at the time, along with a few oddball normal cars as well that don’t get made in small scale. The modern Maisto 1/64 castings pale in comparison as they have lost interiors and budget cuts have been made which cheapened their quality though MBX is treading dangerously as well at the moment.

I have a big box of old cars, toys etc etc no original boxes. How do i find the value and whether professional restoration is worth it. Any advice.
@SidewaysKing753 жыл бұрын
The best advice I can give is to try putting the names of the cars you have into eBay to see what others a re going for, or go along to a toy fair and see if theres any there for sale. I don't really check on my values as they are all mine from a kid and are decades old so to me they are worth much more. With the restoration, again its down to what you intend to do. If you are doing them up to sell on you need to weigh up what you are being charged as opposed to what you want to sell them for. In any of these cases selling them individually would get you better returns as theres so many job lots that go for realtively cheap, but there could be a number of cars in those lots that are worth as much as the job lot if they went on there own..... hope this helps Thanks for watching 🚗🚓🚕🚙😁👍

I was going to ask you about your name. I guessed the 75 was your birth year and I was guessing that you were into drifting. Seems you were just a hoonigan ;)
