oh man I had one of these when I was five. So cool to see one again. brilliant job
I like the way you refurbish damaged parts in stead of simply buying expensive replacement stuff. That's the spirit!
My grandma bought me this one probably around 1979, I was 3 or 4. I remember it was one of my favorites. Seeing this video really brought back some good memories. Glad it showed up in my recommended section.
I had that one as a child in the early 80s. And the front axle was bent exactly the same way. Childhood memories coming up!
Enjoyed your restoration and I liked your showing the tiny details of your work! It’s not boring when you see the end result! Thank you!
Looking at these cars from this channel brings back so many good memories
Bloody hell I haven't seen one of these since I was 5 which is now almost 40 years ago! Can't believe the memories it's brought back from so long ago...it was my favourite toy back then 😊
I had that thing and I LOVED it. I’m going digging in my attic now. It’s gotta be up there somewhere.
Omg man! I had this one! I'm was born in 74. Wow you just brought me memories!! Thank you!
I remember having one of these back in the 70's as a kid. No idea what happened to it, but I'm sure it was in a better state than that one the last time I saw it.
The way you fixed the pistons with the hammered out paper clip was mind blowing. Well done.
You had done a great job. I had this car transporter and the orange BMW when i was a child :-). It's 40years ago now.
How super fun was this truck for a kid back then!
@@DannysDiecastDisasters I had other Trucks in this scale from Siku and Majorette but no car transporter. This fantasy truck was a high light for me when i was 8 years old :-)
Thanks for the nostalgia trip in seeing this and the hours of fun I used to have when I was wee 😊😊
NICE JOB DANNY YOUR EYE FER DETAIL IS OUT OF THIS WORLD BUD
Mamy thanks for this restoration video. I had one of these when i was a kid and this video brings back good memories!
Brings back memories as I had one of these. Nice to see a battered example being brought back to life, and unlike others, I even liked the chilled musical score!
I still have mine! Got it 40 years ago at the age of 6. 😁
This gives a good feel for the amount of work that goes into restoration. Nice work.
Awesome presentation. End product well worth the intricate process.
I got that when I was 6 and still have it!!! Still in pretty good shape too! The pride of my childhood leftovers.
Nice, I'm 52 and I still have my matchbox collection including this model 😀, I watched this video at 2x speed.
I'm the same age, but most of mine disappeared (even though I still have most of my old toys). 😢
Blimey that’s a blast from the past I had one of those,more fun than a PS4
Trop trop cool !!! j'ai eu ce jouet quand j'étais enfant!! que de souvenir !!
Pulled this one out of my old toy box from the 70's , mine still looks good. I ve got cases of 70's hot wheels in excellent condition.
I have a K10 that my uncle gave me. It's still in good condition, but one of the wheels is bent. Beautiful restoration!
Is it strange that I find these types of videos relaxing? :)
even without stickers your restoration looks really good. Love the music, it definitely relax you while you watch the video.
wow, I forgot about this transporter! I can recall having this thing filled with cars & playin with it in the dirt...great memories
Liked the way you came up with to re enforce that piston rod. Thank you.
Perfect restaration !
Had this Matchbox as a kid. I always thought of it as Thunderbirds-esk as well. Good job on the restoration!
I had one. It was my favourite of all my Matchbox and Hot Wheels. I have no idea where it is today. I have all my other cars and gave them to my two boys. I need to get into restoring them so maybe they can pass them on to their kids when they grow up.
OMG!!!! DUDE I had this exact toy as a kid!!!! Am sure it's been donated to charity ages ago...otherwise I would have sent it to you to clean up as it was ...err 'well played with' hahahaha
Thanks soooo much for bringing back some great memories 👍🙏
Love seeing these--they were made a bit too early for me to have gotten them from shops, but there used to be a few of these down at playschool and dentist, and some friends had some passed down from older siblings so I played with them a bit. Total nostalgia.
I like the way you present this. Anyone watching can learn something from this. I agree with the criticism but I will say. Anyone putting themselves out on a platform like youtube for the world to judge gets extra points in my book.
I am not a restorer and I am not watching for learned skills to apply to a real world product, I just enjoy someone that can take "trash" and make it a memory like this. It reminds me of my grandpa. People today throw away something like this all the time and not think twice about it. Taking pride in your craft and possession shows you can display the value of a dollar. Thanks for this.
holy shit.i had 2 of these back when I was a kid...haven't seen these in a very long time..must be at least 30 years.
Wow i had one of these, lots of memories brought back !
Excellent Video, I Had Meccano Lesney Dicast Cars From 1950’s , 100’s I Gave them Away
This was an excellent restoration. Beautiful job!
Wow.... My childhood !!! First time I see this model on youtube! Thank you for just bringing this on screen ... ;-)
K-10 has always been my favorite from the SuperKing collection, excellent restore on this!!
I had this one as a kid. Awesome.
i remembered my childhood , i played with this car transporter loading with other matchbox cars.
Excellent craftsmanship! Marty and you are slowly converting this Hot Wheels guy to Matchbox.
Had one. Nice job, nice to see.
Te quedo increíble, hasta a mi hijo le gusto.
Impressive restoration - Marty would approve. I was extremely impressed with the effort that you put in to get the pistons to work. I am subscribing and will be looking forward to future videos.
Agreed, It is amazing how much work and effort are put into these cars.
Always like car haulers ... you did a GREAT repair and redo.
Dude! I had that as a kid, I've been wondering what it was called! And I never knew it had a trailer!
Edit: I'm honestly going to find one to buy on ebay because it was my favorite as a little kid, it looked so futuristic. When I saw this and figured out what it was called it made me feel 5 again. Seriously, Thank You.
Absolutely gorgeous. Stunning job! I think I had this as a child. One of my all time fave matchbox toys along with the Matchbox 'Piston Popper' (my favourite ever toy car). Really a tough project and one that brought back happy memories. Thanks Danny! :)
Waouh !!! je l'avais quand j'étais petit, et comme tout les gosses je l'ai cassé, je me souviens que je mettais des pétards dedans pour simuler un accident , l'âge bête
Bravo pour la restauration
Excellent job!
I have one of this matchbox great job
Good job I muted the music. I like the details. It look more complex than previous restoration.
Very Nice Restoration! ! ! You do great work!
A very nice model that was excellently restored.
I always wanted one of these as a kid. I love the sci-fi look of the vehicle.
I remember having one of these as a child.
We had this - cab & trailer - when me & my brother were kids
Very good , excellent work , specially this 👍✌️
WOW! Talk about back from the dead! You're as skilled as Marty from MMM!
Danny, put in a decal on the trailer; I recommend three D's (one inside the other) For Danny's Diecast Disaster body shop; what do you think?
This is some INCREDIBLE work!
Opinion is very subjective. I quite liked the music. Not too loud or intrusive. Quite relaxing. Maybe a touch lower but i liked it. Nice restoration as well 👍👍
You did a great job
Great restoration Danny . I have this one in loose /mint condition . Found it last year by chance buying a collection . 😎
Had one when I was a kid 👍😊
kool , neat one...very unusual....Thanx
Robert
lol....the Wife's toothbrush bit , never gets old
I had one of these. Wow, the memories.
I have that exact transporter but in much better condition. Good job.
It takes a long time to make and restoring toys and watching the long video and I like the music too.
Great video. Take no notice music is great.
Nice job, I had one of these as a kid, and it had wonky axles from the factory, I used to put my Ford A series tractor unit from the speedboat set, or my American Ford bullnoze from my fuel tanker I had. I still collect diecast, but it is mostly 1/43 scale stuff
My dad had the same truck and trailer out of the box but was in mint condition
At 14:45..." I then use a small tub of water and my wife's toothbrush"........LOL!
It must be an old one... It can't be her current toothbrush.... Right?
Great job! Found the repair of the piston, to be really clever.
nice to see a restorer take the time to really clean and show attention to every part of the model. Most restorers on youtube only seem to care about what the finished thing looks like from the surfaces you can see, and use a 'that'll do' approach and dont take the time to really treat the entire thing with love and attention. Best of luck with your channel.
i forgot i had this as a kid
Great video , I enjoyed how you showed in detail how you fixed the piston.
Thanks , subbed!
WOW... quality work my friend

Nice, I still have a blue BedFord version at home..
Hey, I had this one, too. I always loved that futuristic look, well, 70's futuristic, anyway ;-)
That's one hell of a job you've done there!
Uh oh.... There's a new player in the HW/MB resto game!.. Awesome! I used to have one of those! Great job!
