Very nice 3D printing examples.

The rear door for the 44c GMC truck looks better than the cast replacement. In fact, if the original had been fabricated to the edge tolerances of your 3D print, there might be fewer 44c trucks with missing doors today!

The Morris J2 looks great in Coke livery. I like the asymmetrical load.

Thank you for showing us what can be done with new technology to restore and customize old Matchboxes which are ready for a new lease on life.
Well done!
Happy hunting!

Hi,

her´s another model witch is made by the help of 3D-printing.
The trailer got a new part so the M9 was converted into a pipeline tube transporter.
The Chassis of the M9 is used as base.

Excellent work Stephan, I agree with Ghosty, very factory looking (or Lesneyesque :) )

Did you cut away the original container or is the stake bed also printed?
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."
