OMG - this is one of the few cars in the Matchbox range with the steering wheel on the right left side and you ruined it!
Now lets go for a driver

That hurts me
No of course not.
And yes Kevin this color really suits the model.
As a menber in the forum wrote it is always rewarding to have a model finished which was in a desolate state before.

Hi,
this horsebox needed a new door.
Painted the box and the door green but left the body of the model untouched.

Here's a couple of Mercedes I did about 10 years ago. The graphite one is my personal favorite. I took the windshields from some Maisto BMWs which I got at the corner drugstore priced at two for $1.00.
