MATCHBOX Restoration 9a Dennis Fire Escape 1955
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ธ.ค. 2019
- This is another fire engine model, the third that I have done. This is one of the oldest models that I have made over so far. Built in 1955 this means that today this model is 64 years old!! - Small and cute, this model was definately not a push over. Thinking I would strip this down and repaint in a couple of hours, how wrong I was! - The paint stripping, repairs and re-painting took much longer than I had anticipated. I am glad that I saw it through because now I have another beautifully simple original style matchbox vehicle for my collection.

A Huge Thanks to the Firefighters out risking life and limb. You guys are appreciated wherever you step forward. Beautiful job on the fire engine, Marty ( as usual ) Thank you for the video!
Nice tribute to the Firefighters! Great job on this cool little fire truck 😊
Another great video for a very noble cause. Those fire fighters are very brave and doing a great job
Too true Ben, thumbs up for the firerys!
Good job Marty. We are happy with that.
I respect your support for the Firefighters battling the dangerous conditions. Hope they get things under control soon. Also, I’m looking forward to Kevin’s return from the bush.
Thanks Eloy.
Awesome restoration , Marty !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another great restoration....
Hello Marty, being from Southern California I am totally sympathetic and empathetic to your fire fighters and the battles they are waging. I believe there are some of our heroes over there helping out as I write this. God bless them and keep all of the fire fighters. And it’s nice to hear that Kevin is helping his mates out too. Nice little restoration. It came out beautifully. See ya next time.
Leaving a "thumbs up" for your brave Firefigthers doing their utmost to keep the fires down!.
Millions of hectares burnt. It's almost unthinkable.
Another great makeover and salute to the firefighters of Australia. I'm a retired London Policeman and have worked very closely with the fire brigade over the years. Fantastic job, much respects.
Respect for you Keith, being a London 'Bobby' would be quite a challenge i'm sure!
Great camera work getting close up shots of the work being done. Project finished up nicely!
Really beautiful and a great tribute to the fire crews battling bush fires across the country. We’ve seen pictures of the devastation of koala habitats and their populations and caring conservationists rescuing survivors. Well done Australia!
Cute model 👍👌
Thanks Brian I agree. Such a simple little insignificant thing.
Lovely job Marty. Yeh can't beat the superglue and baking soda for building up missing bits as strong as steel. Great job.
It certainly has baled me out a few times.
Hey Marty, I did enjoy this restoration and do celebrate the heroism of the brave firefighters around the world for their courage and bravery!
sow's ear or no, that fire lorry looks STUPENDOUS!!!
Lovely! So Beautiful simple wee car
Those wheels look pretty good, not out of place at all. Nice restoration!
Amazing work on a little engine.
Those early Lesney's are really nice. Good job.
Very nice!
Really nice restoration Marty. A really nice tribute to the Aussie Fire Fighters 👍🚒
The details on this model are really neat and considering how small it is he did such a great job of repairing it. But freaked me out putting it in the paint stripper can, imagine accidentally dropping it in there! OMG!
That’s some great resto work Marty👍👍👍
It looks beautiful, Marty. Nice one.
Beautiful job Marty
Thanks Marty me and my wife enjoy watching your video, your are making people smile.
Not too bad at all ..Think you're right , the colour is spot on ...👍🏻🤓
Great result, and nicely done.
Marty, another excellent job! This little truck is so much smaller than the usual Matchbox scale, it’s a wonder you could file between 1mm wheel spokes! You have a very steady hand in painting (and all else)...thanks again for sharing.
nice result 😎👍
I think the small castings like this one are really super, the details are sharp and the model is strong enough to be played with, without worrying to much about it being damaged. Thanks for sharing this video with me
I think it looks gorgeous Marty.
Nice job Marty😎👍👍👍🚗
Great job Marty!!!
Very enjoyable restoration :)
Nice work.cute model!
A real size Matchbox
Cute, small and red, like Kevin with sunburn!
And respect to all firefighters, I deal with them almost daily in my job and I have nothing but admiration for them.
Great job Marty
Very nice young man thank you for sharing
Very nice job! 👍
Looks awesome.
Great Job. Congrats..!
Looks great!
Looks good Marty. Keep up the good work.
Very smart fire truck
Awesome tribute to all hardworking Firefighters and their support crews.
When I watch your video and you talk about the bush fires I can't help but think how more better for the environment it is to rejuvenate old toys like you do then buy modern inferior plastic ones
Damn fine work, Marty.
The fire season looks terrifying as it been on the BBC news. This model is a well deserved tribute to Aussie firemen ,women and local people trying to stop the fires from reaching there property. Well done Marty😁👍
Outstanding project, a serious piece of work! God bless the firefighters indeed, heroes every one.
Awesome as always
Thanks for another great make over. You are part of my Sunday morning breakfast routine.
Nice tribute to fire fighters...
Brilliant. I love the older Matchbox models with the grey metal wheels over the more modern ones.
Me too Dave, I think they were the ones that I grew up with.
@@MartysMatchboxMakeovers This would almost make you cry! Years ago my father in law was helping a recently retired friend clear what had been a toy shop to turn it into a tobacconists. Rain had got into a storage room at the back and there was a pile of wet cardboard on the floor. As he shovelled the cardboard into a bucket it turned out to be wet Matchboxes and their former contents! He picked up a handful but didn't have time to go through the whole pile! They weren't worth much back then ........
Excellent refurbishment. Here’s to all Firefighters the world over!
Excellent restoration Marty! Thanks for that!
Hi Marty! You are right= sometimes the small things are more complicated (and challenging) than the big ones. But your lovely restoration job is exactly the needed for this early Matchbox Model. Top notch result 🤩👍 Only a minor color suggestion: metallic surfaces in this class of emergency vehicles are Brass, not gold. You can notice at the end of the video when both machines are side by side. Aniway the final result is a real resurrection model job! 😍 Kudos Marty!
Love you Marty.
Looks like new. Can't get better than that!
A very nice restoration. I also support those fire fighters around the world having to put out brush fires. We have quite a number of them here in Texas as well.
Good job Marty, looks very nice.
Looks perfect to me, regardless of the wheel size. I would be proud to own this fire engine.
Nice job. I have both models and one has 14 ladder rungs and the other 15. Another small variation.
Perfect restoration. Well done. 👍👍😊
Thank you so much for all the amazing work you do
Great info ! Wish I saw this before I made my last video!

Nice job mate.
Thanks Marty. My Melbourne weekend is now complete!
Thanks for an enjoyable start to my Sunday morning Marty! Thoroughly enjoyed this excellent makeover.
Your restorations always impress me!
Genio! Amo ver sus restauraciones, saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
A darning needle?!? Do people still darn? A mental picture of Mr and Mrs MMM sitting by the fire repairing models and darning socks waiting for Kevin to get home! 😂
Ha Ha! - I can just picture that :)
Love the escape ladder fire appliances. Good job Marty.
Thanks Dick, glad you liked it.
I had one of those. After a restoration, that Dennis, plus 100 others of every type (Mack, American LaFrance, et. al.) Were donated to the Houston Fire Department museum.
You should do a video of all your display cases. Great stuff as usual!
Sunday is off to a great start.
Your lchuckle is so enjoyable and almost contagious. Thank you for shout out to the firefighters, that and the little red fire truck is showing some much deserved respect.
Hi Marty nice job on the fire engine only today I watched a 1962 movie called go to blazes. Some jewelry thief's steel a fire engine just like your one full size off course to use as a getaway vehicle. I love the old 50s and 60s British movies good old fashioned comedy.
@Iain Botham Cheers Ill check that one out.👍
It seems like baking soda & super glue succeeds every time. Looks nice for an early hollow casting. Happy Holidays to you all down under.
Happy holidays to you too , it's hot down here right now , it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas 😁❤🎅
Thanks Daniel hope your Christmas was awesome mate.
@Iain Botham Marty, I am not a politically correct person. I say Merry Christmas and don't give a rat's patootie who doesn't like it. So Merry Christmas to all!
Like i said before Marty,you give to this models an other 50 years easily, special if the models ar stored in display cabinets.
I reapet ,i love your job Marty,,one day i will start slowly doing what are you doing. I need the encyclopedia of matchbox toys,i have search somewhere.
Never stop what you are doing,nice work
I found a copy on Amazon.
Outstanding work Marty! I think you've done a great job on it. Thanks for sharing this.
Cheers John.
Great effort and nice result!!
Hello Marty, nice restoration of a very simple tiney old toycar. Looks beautiful.
Marty, Mole Grips were first invented and produced by a company called Moles in my home town, now a city, of Newport South Wales, United Kingdom. Thought you would like that little bit of info. Keep up the great work, love your videos. Love to you, Mrs Marty and of course Kevin. xxx
Greetings to Newport from Melbourne!
A shoutout to all Firefighters World Wide, keep up your good works!
It's better than alright, it's rad!
Wow! This is one lovely model. Even in the original version is just lovely. I love the molded in driver. And the final is fantastic.
Hi Marty & Julie, and Kevin!! wonderful, Great restoration! thank you very much. Hugs from Brazil.. Att. Lauro Elias-Brasil
Love the Background music and your restoration too
One way to add a bit of detail like grill on the radiator etc. would be to use a ultra fine point permanent marker to draw in lines and then a lacquer coat to seal it. They do make paint/gel pens in various colors which usually found in art stores or online under calligraphy/scrap booking supplies and work well but are design to leave a raised line so they feel embossed. Kudos Marty on another makeover and I've found it to tempting at times not to rework the paint work on some non collectible toys and especially cast iron reproductions since it's fun to do.
Yes Indeed Marty, I was fortunate enough to watch and participate with the Epping Fire Brigade doing a back-burn when I visited back in the early 1990's. Hat's off and a salute to all out First Responders worldwide. For those not familiar with the term, a back-burn is purposely done to consume the brush and dry bush that could spark or help a wildfire spread. A fire break. Tom USA
Great restoration!
Marty, have you ever considered using a product like Milliput putty to make and repair small little details like those ladder ears? It's a two part epoxy based product and can be cut, drilled, sanded and even tapped with a screw thread, and is water miscable before it cures. It's great stuff and isn't expensive.
it looks good.
I love it Marty, gr8 work.. special thanks also to your firefighters.. we can actually help our firefighters, don’t throw your butts out the window.
Great job as always. As for the fires, I have a friend, Vin, who got stuck on Holliday and couldn’t get home because of them. Sending her best wishes for a safe trip home. Also nice that you are honoring the firemen fighting the fires.
Duane Miller fire people (not being a feminist just facts)...there are women fighting the fires also.
Mandy Jonsen in fact you are being a feminist by your need to be inclusive with the pronouns. Let me guess you don’t like saying mankind in reference to all of humanity. If I had said the men fighting the fires and you made your comment I wouldn’t be saying anything against it, but to say someone is a fireman or policeman is to indicate a profession not gender. Next thing you know you won’t want to use the word woman because it includes the word man.
Duane Miller I’m so far from a feminist just wanted you to know there are fire women fighting the fires also. So don’t have a cow.
Mandy Jonsen never said there wasn’t any women working to put out the fires. Thing is that obviously you understood you were making the same argument as a feminist by insisting on more gender inclusive or gender neutral language otherwise you wouldn’t of had to make the remark about not being a feminist.
Australians call them Firies; no gender at all.
Paramedics are Ambos, "first responders" are composed of Cops, Ambos and Firies, each doing their jobs.
Depending on the location/State, Firies and Ambos are volunteers and not paid
