MATCHBOX Restoration No 64a Scammell Breakdown Truck 1959

[@MartysMatchboxMakeovers]

The code word within the video "trump" was simply used as a password for a winner of the monthly patreon giveaway, It in no way means anything other than that. In hindsight I should of used another word, but its hard to keep track of everything that might be offensive, I try my best.

[@brucemoxon3771]

More horrified than offended!

Trump is another word for Fart so fine with me. Shame I missed out on the giveaway.

[@jonelliott9627]

Still laughing my ass off !!! If someone would've told me I will be thoroughly enjoying watching matchbox restoration by a crazy aussie wearing pink nails and pink sparkly shoes to match.....I guess the world really is a good place with good people. Thank you so much for another great video. Still laughing...

[@garyodle5663]

The way you fixed the guides for the axel was sheer genius. Marvelous.

[@rutroh9647]

Love the nails....sparkle makes the world go around

[@benday1218]

You went beyond the call of duty there, that was only suitable for the bin, and your saved it. 11/10! It's not even the most popular model.

Love it Marty. You just made my week. It's still very cold in the morning where I live so sitting by the fire watching another Marty restoration is just the ticket. Cheers!

All I can say is keep em coming. It is fantastic to see these lost toys brought back to life.

Nobody but Marty would have taken this on one.Love your channel.

You are a powerful wizard indeed! That transformation was magic! Anybody else would have tossed that thing in the trash. Great work Marty. Incidentally, my throat is a little raw from laughing at the communication breakdown between you and the nail salon. Hilarious!

[@mattouli]

Good to have you back from holiday! Surprised how well this one survived under ground - shows how good the matchbox metal is

I owned most of these models in the 60s....so it's nice to see your bringing them back to life.

I don't know which is better, the restorations or the comedy. The shoes were the best part, hilarious!

I had found this Schammel Breakdown Truck this morning on the side of my house. I was digging up my soil and sifting it to place in planters. My home was built around the early 1960’s and it was a large farm prior to being built for track homes.

[@brfinleyjr]

It is always a pleasure to watch your videos, Marty. The labors of love you perform are a true marvel! Keep these coming!

[@schuur10]

Marty, if any rusted axels may come by again then use the electrolysis technique. All rust wil jump off until bare metal accurs. Then the process stops. I used it for an old rifle, this way all letter and number stamps wil be untouched instead of using chemicals or grinding

[@DiecastShowCustoms]

*White Vinegar with Epsom salt is what I use for the rust*

[@chrismayer3919]

Soak rusty pieces in WD-40 for 24-48 hours; it'll KILL that rust!

[@scottgoodman8993]

I have used a product called navel jelly. It is dangerous and powerful. It works promptly. Some type of acid, like vinegar, only deadly.

[@collectingonthecheap56353]

Better off using lemon juice instead of wasting Coca-Cola. They are both acidic, but really don't have much rust removing potential.
