The current active project is the 1935 Ford Model A Pick Up Matchbox DIY kit. The listing describes a genuine Matchbox casting stripped and prepared for painting. This is a build project, not a finished custom; review its photos, condition, included parts, assembly details and current availability before ordering.

1935 Ford Model A Matchbox DIY kit details

  • Factory wheel reference: 10 mm front and 12 mm rear. These measurements describe the casting; they do not guarantee that a replacement wheel set will fit.
  • Painting and tools: The product listing does not say that paint or tools are included.
  • Separate upgrades: Custom wheels, rubber tires and upgrade axles are sold separately. Measure the exact body and chassis before selecting wheel parts.
  • Shipping: Qualifying U.S. orders of $100 or more receive automatic free shipping. Eligibility and the final shipping total appear at checkout. See shipping and packing details.

Dry-fit the parts before painting or final assembly. Check the product page for the exact kit contents and assembly method.

Will a 10 mm or 12 mm replacement wheel fit this casting?

The factory wheel diameters are a reference only. Check wheel width, axle length, tire clearance and free rotation on the exact body and chassis before ordering replacement parts.
