MATCHBOX Restoration Y10 1906 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost 1969

- This is the first Rolls Royce that I have ever owned. It was a tricky rebuild which took much longer than I thought. The end result looks stunning, however, I made a big mistake by painting the body and chassis in the wrong colours! - Never mind, it will still look good in my display cabinet and is probably 'One of a Kind'. Please comment and subscribe, thank you, Marty.

Marty, we are all subject to error. The sign of maturity is when we can admit mistakes to our friends and family. I enjoy your post.
Have received my Morris J2 Pickup. Got to meet the man himself. Was awesome to meet both you and Julie. Absolute honour and pleasure. The model is sitting with pride in my display unit. Thank you again 😊😊😊
No worries Mat O, the pleasure was all ours, it was great to see how happy you were with your win. You are welcome, Marty and Julie.
Accidentally switching the pink and beige colors turned this model into a matchbox masterpiece. Simply stunning!
Thanks for keeping the videos flowing during difficult times...
The reverse color scheme was a VERY fortunate accident, it looks MUCH better! And the gold just explodes! Looks fantastic!
Joy me to see your restorations again.First class work !!! 👍😅🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Dude - I really like when you're a bit creative and don't just do a 'makeover'
Maybe do a sub-series where you do extra detail/tweak how you want? Marty's Pimp That Matchbox
it also helps that this model is the base for chitty chitty bang bang ... so he did have MANY options for modifications
@@0623kaboom I love Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!!! One of my favorite superhero cars!!!
One lever is your gear shift, and the other is your parking brake. Great job as usual.
You're a brave man letting Kevin stand behind you with a razor.
The color swap is fabulous, it makes the model look like it should have been originally.
Recovering from covid19 and watching MMM cant get any better than that.
I always appreciate you saving these beautiful models marty. Instead of being on the rubbish pile or abandon in the toy box, you give them a second life. That's a very happy and touching hobby 🙂 thank you for doing it! Because at some point, every toy was some little boy or girls happiness. Thank you for keeping it alive! Bless from the state's 😃
I totally agree Mathew!!!
I loved these "models of yesteryear", and I had a few of them back in the 70's. The problem was that they were too large to fit into my carrying case. As a result, while I still have my original mid 70's carrying case with all of its contents, any larger vehicles such as these are lost to time.
You did a great job, thanks for sharing with us!
I like your colour scheme better! Well done Marty. Thanks for the video.
"Britain's fattest woman ate fridge and died" :)))) the paint booth magazines are always hilarious!
that's what you get for eating fridges instead of it's contents...
@@lotharrenz4621 they ate both the fridge and the it’s contents
Just wondering, are those for real?
@@robertdragoff6909 Yeah
@@lotharrenz4621 😜😜😂😂😂
Everything about this makeover is outstanding. Everything!
Congratulations to the winners of Marty's Makeover trucks. Lucky!!
The subtle humour in your videos really tickles my fancy. Nothing is hammered in, one is left to pick up on the subtleties by themselves..
Great work Marty as always. You bring back a lot of childhood memories with the cars you restore and get from people. All the best wishes and please stay safe.
The Rolls will be a great one for the breast cancer awareness month challenge. It's gorgeous. I was really hoping to win the mini but, oh well. I hope you and Julie and your family are keeping safe.
Another successful makeover. Thanks Marty.
Nice job even if the two-tone is reversed. Being a Matchbox model of that era, it would have been painted originally with Humbrol gloss enamel. The original colours on this car look to me like Ivory 41, and Sunset Red 51. As for the lights on the Rolls, they would have been acetylene lights. The gas generators are those pots on the running boards. You filled them up to a mark with water and then put a few lumps of calcium carbide in, and put the lid on. After a few minutes you could open the taps and light the lights with a match. An old friend of mine had a (full size) 1905 Peugeot Italia, it used the same system. On the Rolls the lever with the grippy thing on it operates the back brakes, and is also the parking brake. There's also a pedal brake that works on the prop shaft. No front brakes on this car, but then, the national speed limit in 1905 was 20 mph! The ball topped lever is the gear change. It was a 3 speed. Throttle, choke & timing advance/retard were levers near the wheel. Clutch was a pedal on the floor.

When you see how the earliest cars had to be operated, it makes you wonder that the things ever caught on. Ford's Model T is another great example, with its insane pedal arrangement, bizarre gearbox, and habit of running over its owner at startup if not set up exactly right. :)
No interest in restoration . New resale models are no longer of interest to many people. You can buy a new model in a box for less than 10 euros
Oh wow!! I love the cool & awesome facts!! I subscribed to your channel
Hey Marty, American painter Bob Ross once said " There are no accidents, just happy mistakes" :o) I like the colour reversal and besides Lady Penelope had a pink Rolls Royce. Looks FAB.
The "mistake" in the painting turned out to make it even more beautiful. Excellent restoration as always 👍

As soon as I saw the link and without the makeover I thought that is a beautiful car. Please do it justice. And you did. Never doubted your mad skills. You could say, “I’m happy with that.”
Looks more like a car Liberace would own..
Fantastic transformation....
Hi Marty, I love the work that you do with the matchbox cars. Some of them my dad bought to me when I was a little kid, especially this model was one of my favorite. I get some tears on my eyes when I saw the restoration finished. Really you bring me back a such good memories from my childhood. Thank's
Hello Marty, wonderful work, the Car looks so beautiful and every Barbie would be proud to have such a car.
Superb result and nice haircut
An ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC restoration job!!.. All ready for the next Concours d'elegance!!.. Keep up the great work Bud!!
I think the smashing result is what Rob at Matchbox Garage calls a restoration plus. Just beautiful. And what Kevin did to you remids me of the Bugs Bunny cartoon, "The Rabbit of Seville."
Great job redoing this model nice custom paint job
Restorations like this should not be rushed! Take your time Marty ,and enjoy your hobby mate.
I do these restorations for fun and yes they do one wrong move and you ruin a model
I was hooked from the start.I have a box of old Dinky Corgi and M/box models that need bringing back to life.I am learning from this vid.
I'm pretty sure my grandparents had this model in their toy box when I was a little kid! Would have been early 70s. I loved this car!
EXCELLENT video!! I had this same model in the late 70’s as a kid! I haven’t seen one of these until this video came out. 👍👍👍👍
You need to upgrade your drill press Marty. Then you can call it the "Axle Reforming System Extraordinaire."
Don't be an... ;-D
Haha. Goog one
Watching this channel is therapy for me. Cheers, Marty!
Congratulations to all the winners
It never hurts todo a bit of custom work every now and then.
That looks absolutely stunning, even with the mix up regarding the paint. The pink makes it look like Barbara Cartland's first car.
as they say (whoever"they"are) good things are worth waiting for and that is exactly how we feel about your videos Marty. Thanks again.
If only all mistakes had this wonderful of outcome. She's a beauty Marty. Congrats!!
Fantastic results! You're funny and a treat to watch! Thanks for the good time!
love watching your restorations and the newspaper articles are bloody funny, keep up the good work
Kevin with a razor. Dangerous. The different paint denotes a Matchbox Limited Edition. LOL! Enjoyed watching! Thanks, Marty.
Marty, you should never worry about the quantity of your videos as the quality will override that every time. I would much rather have one of you videos a week than 1of somebody else’s every day. Yet another cracking job my friend 👍
Thanks for that!
Also very very relaxing to watch you build you model.
I had this toy car growing up, and mine was green. I loved it because it was different. I'm glad to see it again.
Another beautifully restored model! And congratulations to the three winners!
You are my favorite as I like restoration with a little bit of artistic license. Thanks for this!
I really liked this one. Your custom touches are better than when It was new. Thanks.
Wow 😯
What a fabulous car.
Pretty impressive workmanship
Crazy good restoration job.
Marty, your sense of humor just cracks me up. Great job on the Rolls Royce too.
Fantastic restoration
I so appreciate that not only you show everything but you explain your choices and reasons for what you are doing which greatly enhances my understanding esp when you have done all you can with certain pieces and can't simply replace them
Beautiful work
Yes I would love such a car haha
Absolutely astounding and enjoyable. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful results.
The one thing I always look forward to is reading the newspaper headline in Marty's paint booth. This episode's headline was hilarious! Almost as funny as seeing the results of the Koala's effort to cut your hair. Love it Marty and keep up the fantastic work.
I like surprises! Serendipitously the colour scheme works really well, Like a 60s makeover as driven by the Beatles. Love it! Take care!
My dad had three or four dream car matchbox models on his dresser from the time I could remember until my parents retired. This, in these colors, was his favorite. He once got to drive one at an exhibition at a local race track when they held a gigantice track day car show. My grandfather was the sports editor of the local paper and was able to get my dad in and on a couple occasions behind the wheel of some amazing exotics.
I’m not a fan of that pink colour, but painting the lights with chrome (look how shiny!) makes that model really adorable!
For some reason this just now popped up on my TH-cam subscription. What a fun projects. Barbie's Blingmobile.
Thank you so much for continuing to produce content! Your videos do so much for me whenever I see them and you have my eternal gratitude.
I think it looks great! I like the reversed colors and the Tamiya Pearl Lacquer worked very well on the Vallejo Magenta. I too have used Tamiya products and I cannot say enough good things about them. Their primers are the best ones around and they always work well on metal or plastic. Thanks for sharing this, it was great to watch you restore a piece of toy history.
I really love these yesteryear models.
Stunning. Personally I think the colours look better the way you have done.
Not me.
The gold really sets off the pink. wonderful job! Hey, I also wanted to mention the great job Kevin did on your shave. He is a master with the razor Marty.
Beautiful job Marty! Love how you problem solve and make the best with what you have.
A pink Rolls Royce... what would my old great granddad have said!
You can certainly be proud of all the work that went into this restoration, Marty; it looks a million dollars!
And it's lucky for you that Kevin didn't shave a dirty word into your hair. 🐨🦲
The paint reversal was a "happy accident" and, I think, it looks *better* that way. The gold paint did a good job too. The pink is quite a bit away from the original red but it suits the old Roller and it's certainly not the first pink Rolls Royce. Great result Marty.👍
Congratulations to the three winners - well done guys.
Cheers for now,
Dougie.
Ur new colour lay out looks miles better that way matchbox had it.
Well done marty.
Congratulations to the winners of the pickup trucks! well deserved. ^_^
Barbie car or not, the Rolls came out great Marty. I l8e the extra silver detail you added. Thanks for all your hard work! Be safe, be well all.👍🏼🤘🏼😎
Only just found your vids and now can’t stop binge watching! Brilliant work and must be so satisfying to see these models come back to life. The Ghost looks fantastic. If you want to add an authentic touch, the RR on the grille would have been painted red (changed to black after Henry Royce died in 1933).
Yay, a new MMM video. Or as I'm calling it: MCIT - Marty's Covid Isolation Therapy. Please keep them coming to keep us sane, but don't overwork yourself. P. S. I think the Rolls looks far better pink over cream than the original 👍👍👍
Great job Marty, another matchbox brought back to life.👍👍
Always a pleasure when I get the notifications of a new video
That looks superb, Marty. What a beautiful car the 1906 Rolls-Royce was.
The whole effect is quite pleasing.
Merci, j'apprends beaucoup avec vous ,superbe vidéo bravo. Et prenez soin de vous à une prochaine vidéo.👍❤❤❤🇧🇪
Congratulations to the Winners !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent job on the Rolls. Wish I could say the same thing about Kevin's talents as a barber.
It looks fantastic. The mistake turned out to be a great change, myself I like it better like that. Congratulations to all the winners 👍👍😊
Congratulations to the three winners. Live the Rolls.
It looks like Parker should be driving Lady Penelope around in it! Great job!
Came out looking great
i love the paint even though it in reverse. i love putting it on display.
Superb! My favorite makeover so far! Not fiddly at all 😉
That car is SPECTACULAR
Love your work Marty. Keep on making videos at whatever pace you feel comfortable with. The last thing I want is for you to feel burned out because you think you need to pump out videos.
As I sit here working at well, 'work' and also assembling some 1/35 Kaizen workable track for a Tamiya Pz IV research build, a Marty's Matchbox Makeover video comes on! Time for a break! Beautiful job, Mr. Marty!
Well done Marty. I like the colour swap and the custom touches. Better than the original!
The "mistake" you made actually makes the car look so much better than the pink fenders. Looks like a "Staempunk" version of Lady Penelope's FAB-1.
BTW, The condiment squeeze bottles (what you call a sauce bottle) are usually polyethylene or polypropylene, which are inert to most solvents, though I've found when I use them to store methylene chloride (the active ingredient in "hot" model glues like Tenax) will actually evaporate through it... I found that out when the MC supplied to glue acrylic sheet (Plexiglass) started to drop in level after a week. Luckily I'd only lost a couple of centimetres' worth from a 3.78 litre (1 US gallon) jug, so I transferred it into an old brown glass jug and it's been good for years.
Absolutely epic marty... these models of yesteryear.
No interest in restoration . New resale models are no longer of interest to many people. You can buy a new model in a box for less than 10 euros
Really enjoyed this one, especially since you mixed up the colours. People have no idea of the sort of things that happen with one of these restoration.
4:23AM here in Ontario, Canada I should go to sleep 😴 wait! 😳 another amazing video by the Matchbox God himself 🙂
Very unique restoration. It is definitely one of a kind. Keep up the great work. Thanks Jon...
Excellent job with the Model Marty! The pink looks perfect with the gold so two thumbs up from me!
The red nail varnish suits you 😘
I liked the reverse colors
Another fantastic, sweet build of a cute, beautiful classic car, Marty!! You’re a true master, my friend!! Is Kevin keeping himself out of trouble?? Give him a hug for me…once you’re able to chase & catch up to him😍😍😁😁
Good Restoration Done 👌
Thumbs up 👍
👏 👏
These old cars always make me think of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
