Marty's Matchbox Makeovers

Marty's Matchbox Makeovers, launched in December 2018, documents the meticulous restoration of vintage Matchbox cars. Starting with a personal project of acquiring and repainting a complete set, Marty's passion for restoring these iconic toys to their former glory has blossomed into a dedicated online community. Currently boasting 67 total members, with 11 dedicated paid patrons contributing to the project's estimated $84 monthly earnings (ranging from $11-$55), Marty's work showcases a unique blend of artistry and preservation. The focus is on achieving a 'like-new' condition, transforming played-with models into collector's items. What sets Marty apart is the detailed process, the visible care and precision evident in each restoration, and the connection fostered with a growing community of enthusiasts who share a love for these miniature vehicles. The journey, captured through the Patreon page, reflects not just restoration but also the dedication and satisfaction found in bringing vintage toys back to life.
