  • This seemingly simple makeover had a whole load of unique complications. After stripping the thick paint off it was apparent that this model needed some filler and fixing. I used another similar model to match the paint color and also robbed it of it's wheels to make this one complete. Kevin, again, is a thorn in my side, making it impossible for me to make an honest living!

    Good morning! Thank you for the video rebuild, Mr. Marty. Most folk would not give that poor, beaten up toy a second look but you have polished it up and revealed the Gem that was hidden by the wear of Time.

    The 'coke powered' belch is the giveaway that Kevin is draining his employee discount to the max! Love these older models, they have a timelessness to them that hints of older days and many owners through several generations.

    Hi Marty, great resto as normal.
    Just a suggestion, when you mix the paint why not utilize an empty paint bottle. That way you can keep the left over paint to use if you do another model the same.
    I rinse them out with all purpose thinners, then wash with soapy water and take the labels off.
    Keep up the good work.

I own one of the 1960 versions of this Coke truck, and since I worked at a Coca-Cola plant as a teenager, I've actually seen one of the 1940s yellow Coca-Cola delivery trucks up close, and they were beauties! I particularly enjoyed seeing all three of your restorations at the end of the video! I don't have one of the '50s unbalanced load Lesney trucks so I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for one of those in the future. A very nice bit of restoration, man!
