Matchbox restoration of Ford Mustang Boss No. 44. Diecast car model.

I received this Mustang Boss model from a friend in Kentucky. This is one of the first bizarre models produced by Lesney in the early 70s. The steps in the movie are described in the credits. To display subtitles in your language at the bottom of the video, press C on your computer or the three dots on your mobile in the video. My model had a broken engine hatch. I made a new mount and stuck it on cyanoacrylate glue. I also repaired the glass, which was deeply scratched. I made a replica of the box according to the original photos from the Internet. Thank you for watching the movie. I post car repair videos on TH-cam on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

It's great to see a matchbox car from my childhood restored. The Boss Mustang , and the Dodge Challenger ( l noticed the box as you were building the one for the Boss Mustang 👍)
Are favourites of mine

To zawsze wygląda tak łatwo, kiedy naprawiasz coś takiego jak ten kaptur. Ale jeśli kiedykolwiek próbowałeś tego sam, wiesz jak trudne może to być. Mój szczery szacunek. 👍🏼
Świetna praca i doskonały rezultat mój przyjacielu.
Bardzo dziękuję za podzielenie się. Miłego tygodnia dla Ciebie i Twojej rodziny i pozostańcie zdrowi. Pozdrowienia z Morza Północnego, Paul

It always looks so easy when you repair something like this bonnet. But who ever tried it himself, knows how difficult it can be. My honest respect. 👍🏼
Great job and excellent result mate.
Thank you so much for sharing. I wish you and your family a wonderful week and stay healthy. Greetings from the North Sea, Paul

Es sieht immer so einfach aus, wenn du etwas wie diese Motorhaube repariert. Aber wer es jemals selbst versucht hat, weiß, wie schwierig es sein kann. Meinen ehrlichen Respekt. 👍🏼
Tolle Arbeit und ausgezeichnetes Ergebnis, mein Freund.
Vielen Dank fürs Teilen. Ich wünsche dir und deiner Familie eine schöne Woche und bleibt gesund. Grüße von der Nordsee, Paul

I recently traded off 3 of this casting. I saved a black one for myself. I forget whether the hood opens or not though. Anyway, nice job Paul. Looks factory fresh 😺👍

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much

Superb restoration paul, brilliant paint finish and repair work.

[@American_Jeeper]

Paul, what a phenomenal job and result. I have a mint 1973 No. 10 Rollamatics Mustang Piston Popper in metallic blue, to replace the one I had as a kid in the 70’s. The only difference I can see between mine and yours is the hood and the engine. Bravo!

[@PaulRestorer]

Awww, yeah! This was one of my favorite Matchboxes, and it seems like I had about a dozen of them. Now you just need a Piston Popper Mustang to complete the set. Great job, as usual, Paul.

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much. I am slowly developing the Piston Popper.

[@schabomis2816]

Dziękuję. Wzruszyłem się, gdyż ten model to był mój pierwszy "resorak" (choć odcień żółci był nieco ciemniejszy). Niestety dziś jest w podobnie opłakanym stanie :(

[@PaulRestorer]

To miło tak powspominać.

[@schabomis2816]

@@PaulRestorer Z jednej strony tak, ale z drugiej to mi żal przysłowiową pupę ściska, że nie mam możliwości odnowienia swojego :(

[@tdalb8985]

I had that car when I was in third grade, in 1974.
Started my love of Mustangs.
Was probably my favorite possession at the time.

[@bryandickerson5365]

Paul, I appreciate that you keep things original, but I’d be so tempted to paint that chrome interior. Once again - beautiful work!
When I was a kid my first love was Matchbox, but when Hot Wheels came out I flipped! Have you ever restored the special edition Hot Wheels funny-car set ‘The Snake and the Mongoose’? If I still had mine I’d send them to you to restore!

[@PaulRestorer]

Thank you very much Bryan

[@srdjanstanisic3469]

As I was watching I wondered what you were doing with the painting. Then I realized, as a child of the '70s. the Boss Mustang had a Black Hood.
Did you make a new hood?

[@PaulRestorer]

probably not there, in this model, it was only to be improved

[@yanetvazquez8434]

Like MUSTANG BOSS 👌🇲🇽

Schöne Restauration!!! Wie wählst du das Modell aus zum restaurieren ?👍

[@PaulRestorer]

Vielen Dank. Ich versuche, verschiedene Modelle zu wechseln, um mich mit den Zuschauern nicht zu langweilen. Manchmal ist dies nur ein Zufall. Ich habe viele Projekte begonnen, weil es aus irgendeinem Grund nicht immer möglich ist, ein Projekt schnell abzuschließen. Schöne Grüße
