The first one: Matchbox Lesney MB-73 Mercury Commuter

My first 'victim', which I repainted was a Mercury Park Lane Commuter by Matchbox. It wasn't so bad condition, my goal was only to restore the original state, nothing special. So I tried to get very similar paint for that car. 



After disassembling turns out, is there anything wrong inside? Luckily this time all of the parts were in good condotion. I removed the paint from the chassis and cleaned all the other parts.



The new metal light green paint was especially mixed for this car, but I got to like it, so I used later for other cars, too.This car became member of my collection, not for sale. And at the and I made a repro G-box for it - having got no original one.
