What did you guys think of the shorter format? It makes it easier for me to put out more videos if they aren't as long. I want to reduce the amount of fast forwarding people do as well. Let me know your thoughts below. Have good evening Fam!
Sweet pair of rides, B.E.A. utiful paint jobs. I have always loved that model year of Cutlass. I had a 78 but wanted my friends earlier model, his was completely original and in great shape.
4:14 most important moment in diecast history. Short or long format, please dont skip the steps. It’s the process and the results that I like. Another great video.
I hit the like just for the tune in Tokyo joke. The cars came out really nice, simple paint by your standards but they don't need more than that. The joke about the bedazzled cops and looking for Jimmy was hysterical.
I love your videos, they have a very therapeutic quality to them. One of the very few channels where I always watch the commercials, start to very end. Thanks for the hard work that you do.
It's sad but these videos really are the highlight of my week - look forward to them always! I'll have to try my hand at a custom or restore at some point I think...
Oddly enough, there are three content providers I really look forward to ... DR is one of them. I even find myself talking about Jimmy ... my wife just looks at me like I'm crazy.
I always look forward to all these kinds of channels I would say my favourites are this channel, Marty, SidewaysKing and BaremetalHW. There are quite a few others I watch too.
This one brought back some memories when I had this car incredible restore on both. And my feelings on the black and white is someone painted the black on it probably a kid like me that paid attention to detail and wanted it looking sweet.
Love your work and your videos you make them so relaxed and not rushed or and funny which makes them great to whatch 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁or much love from the me in the UK 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Wowee am I late to the party lol. I am I the only one that enjoys the paint stripping segments, they are so satisfying. Also I love when you do the fine details such as the tail lights and fixing up the chrome finish. That really makes the car look really polished.
These are awesome! They look fantastic. Since you had two of them, I would have maybe liked to see one of them painted with a black trunk and hood just to see what it would look like.
I really like these police cars brother! I was 9 yrs. When Hot Wheels busted out, and here we are seeing you bring out the life of these toys! Thank you bro... This is so BOSS!
GREAT to see you back! If you like Bud Light, you'll enjoy Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. Tomarts hot wheels guide shows only white police cars with red and blue lights. I think I found a solution for wheels so you don't have to use brass tubes and glue. I was at Wal-mart today and found some 2mm crimp tubes. they may be the answer to securing the end when you use 2" head pins for the axle replacement.
The car with the metal base was one of the first Olds 442 police cruisers that came out after the original 1971 Spectraflame Olds 442. These are redlines and never had black trunks or hoods, that is someone's artwork, lol. They were all white enamel. What also gives this away as the first generation Olds 442 cruiser is the separate red cherry on top and the opening hood. Notice the glass also has a greenish tint. Many of these have been converted to clones of the Spectraflame original release. There were a couple different metal bases on the first generation olds police cruisers, and the early ones had stickers on the doors before they transitioned to tampos. Later releases had plastic bases and blackwalls, just like the ones driven by officer Grady! 😆
I might be totally wrong, but I had a look at the online redline guide, and it shows it under 1969 as a Police Cruiser. It was apparently used again in 1970 as the Fire Chief's car. It seems to have had a few paint scheme variations, some of which look like they might be quite rare.
@@adambeckett8394 The 1969 police cruiser was based on the Plymouth Fury, not the Olds 442. The version I'm referring to was the Olds 442 police cruiser, which came out after the original Spectraflame Olds 442 casting released in 1971, not 1970 (my bad, was going off memory, lol). I've corrected my original post, thanks!
Thanks Norm! The red light police cruisers are rare and can fetch up to $400 if in mint original condition. We determined the black paint was just added by someone with a steady hand.
Fast forward!?!?! Never have, never will!!! Shorter format was ok but the longer ones are just as cool. As long as you’re putting videos up we will watch ‘cos you’re a genius and you’re nucking futs and we love it! 😂👍😉Keep ‘em coming Bro, we can’t get enough 😎👍
I saw a couple cruisers with the red light...one had the black 'State Police" decal on the door like the blue light ones, the other had a yellow "Police" decal with a 6 pointed star. They were identified as '73 Hot Wheels Redline. Neither had black body paint but both had opening hoods.
I like this because there is precedent. The California Highway Patrol had the 1967 Olds B07 Apprehender for one year. Now, the B07 is not the 442, but it’s a slick ride. This was shweet per usual, I hope you do one with CHiPpy decals. That would be awesome.
Half of me comes for the restoration. The other half comes for the dialogue. It would have been cool to customize one of those like your mystery paint job. Since you had two and all...
Great restoration as usual, love you videos and commentary. I have a matching redline cruiser red light/ metal base but all white with police stickers ( not transfers, ive never seen a cruiser black doors ,boot or bonnet either, looks to be a colour over.
Dude, u is de mann......u rock. And I love jimmy. Great restoration and don't worry about u'r videos being too long bro. I would watch them even if they were an hour long. I love to watch all the details bro!
Two perfect examples of the last version of the 442 police cruiser. Excellent decal repros! BTW they never had black trunks or hoods. They were painted black enamel paint by a previous owner. Original version had a red gumball light and the sides were a sticker that had a badge and the word police on it. These cars looks way better now! Can't wait until you get a scale donut shop to park in front of. This IS a great format. Didn't like watching the paint drying part of your older vids,ha,ha.
Great job! I love them two cars, they look brand new! 👍 👍 👍.One thing, the megaphones on either side of the beacon could have been painted or sharpied a different couloir to make them more visible.
"What did you do today?" Ummmmm.......I watched vintage Hot Wheels restoration videos ALLLLLLL day! The police cruisers were always my favorite as a kid. Great video!!!!!!!!!! We just subbed.
Just catching this now. Love your work! I'm sure you know but the car with the metal base is the first run police cruiser from 1973. Someone painted it black. It was originally all white with paper POLICE decals. In 1974 they lost the door lines and changed the decal to the black and yellow one. Only 73 and 74 have metal bases, red lights and opening hoods. They were switched to plastic and the dome incorporated into the windshield and made blue. Sorry if this is old news.
That was a very exciting opening sequence! Is Karen alive? Was Jimmy caught? Did Roscoe P. Coltrain and Flash get their doughnuts? One thing is for sure...the restoration was sweet! Plubplubplubplub!
What did you guys think of the shorter format? It makes it easier for me to put out more videos if they aren't as long. I want to reduce the amount of fast forwarding people do as well. Let me know your thoughts below. Have good evening Fam!
I like both formats! But this seemed to be the perfect length of time. Keep it up and keep the Jimmy skits commin'!
Uhh, what? Who fast forwards?
It seemed a bit too fast paced maybe. It was harder for me to get into it than the others. Or maybe I'm wrong!
I'll watch whatever you put out my dude.
Hmm.. This length is a-ok by me if it means frequent videos. It's still very easy to follow what you're doing.
Awesome Restorations there sir
I like you enjoy “playtime” so it frees up time to go back to your past videos and see details of how and why and play wit da toys! Good stuff.👍🏽
Super cool😊
The one thing i love about this channel is seeing all the diecast cars i use to have. I had cars by the hundreds.
jack hammer same
Very nice classics from the early blackwall era. They look fantastic!
Sweet pair of rides, B.E.A. utiful paint jobs. I have always loved that model year of Cutlass. I had a 78 but wanted my friends earlier model, his was completely original and in great shape.
I love the Super Troopers shoutout. "Mother of God"
4:14 most important moment in diecast history. Short or long format, please dont skip the steps. It’s the process and the results that I like. Another great video.
Another amazing restoration, they look great all glossy, I sure hope Karen is recovering well
I hit the like just for the tune in Tokyo joke.

Another great build sir
Diecast resurrection, don't matter how long or short . I'll always keep watching.. officer Grady , why that's just awesome 😁👍
Glad I found your channel. Keep keeping it real my friend.
Turned out really cool! Short videos are good for me. I often go for the shorter ones anyway.
Awesome job buddy they look great thanks for sharing buddy 👍
I love your videos, they have a very therapeutic quality to them. One of the very few channels where I always watch the commercials, start to very end. Thanks for the hard work that you do.
The Beginning is Really Funny!, Also Great Job on the Cars! Never seen a Double Resurrection before.
It's sad but these videos really are the highlight of my week - look forward to them always! I'll have to try my hand at a custom or restore at some point I think...
Oddly enough, there are three content providers I really look forward to ... DR is one of them. I even find myself talking about Jimmy ... my wife just looks at me like I'm crazy.

I always look forward to all these kinds of channels I would say my favourites are this channel, Marty, SidewaysKing and BaremetalHW. There are quite a few others I watch too.
Do it! I started three years ago and truly is a great way to spend the time.
The old "Driver" music in the back ground during thre final touch up 😁 simply great
I always click like before I start watching and I’m never disappointed 😀
Me too 🙂

Same here
Dwayne Cheeke absolutely. What a great channel
Nice pair!! of police cruisers of course!
Those are the coolest cars you've done on your videos! One of my favorite castings.
Great job Dr.Diecast.
I would be proud to have it in my collection.
New time format was good. I didn't feel like it lost anything from being a bit shorter. It was still as satisfying and entertaining as usual.
This one brought back some memories when I had this car incredible restore on both. And my feelings on the black and white is someone painted the black on it probably a kid like me that paid attention to detail and wanted it looking sweet.
I'd love to see a 442 Cutlass with a regular paintjob! Must be my favorite car after the DeLorean and the Challenger
You are the epitome of life, Mr D. Resurrection. Love from the UK
"Mother of God..."
Great quote from Super Troopers!
Love how they turned out
Love your work and your videos you make them so relaxed and not rushed or and funny which makes them great to whatch 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁or much love from the me in the UK 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I've got an old paint bombed cruiser.... definitely factory black hood but white trunk under all the custom Testors paint!
Wowee am I late to the party lol. I am I the only one that enjoys the paint stripping segments, they are so satisfying. Also I love when you do the fine details such as the tail lights and fixing up the chrome finish. That really makes the car look really polished.
Outstanding as usual. Your artistry is a perfect blend to your great sense of humor!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Karl :D I enjoyed this one hehe
These are awesome! They look fantastic. Since you had two of them, I would have maybe liked to see one of them painted with a black trunk and hood just to see what it would look like.
So entertaining as always. These came out real nice! Your skills are improving. Good start of my weekend! Keep 'm coming.
Another great build!!!!!! Cant wait for the next video already i absolutely love your channel
I really like these police cars brother! I was 9 yrs.
When Hot Wheels busted out, and here we are seeing you bring out the life of these toys! Thank you bro... This is so BOSS!
Great job, nice restorations!...Bill
One of my favorite castings.. And you did em Justice.. T .. Justice!

Cut the roof right off it

Excelent job
Very nice and clean job there Bro. They came out great.
Looks great. It's amazing how that Pledge brightens the windows up!
Another great video, love the humor too!
Paint looks great. The blue windshields make the cars. Great job!👍👍👍
just started watching you a couple months ago, I find this entertaining and the commentary makes it even better, keep it up
Man I wish I could find this car.It would look really good with my other vintage Hot Wheels.
The intro to this video is one of the funniest things I've ever seen on youtube. Nice one.

As Always , a Great Job there .
Excellent job as usual
After some research, the redline police Cruiser was released in 1973 and all white just like the ones you restored. Excellent restorations 👍🔥👍

I was thinking pledge the lights a bit more and you did. You know the black trunk and hood would have looked awesome too.
they look great
Veeeerrrry nice dude. Turned out real well. Thank you. Take care as always from South Africa

It would be cool to see some licence plates on the rear bumper . very nice job
I can make that happen!
I second the license plate idea. You have quite a few one liners that u can make into license plates that only us die hard fans would understand

Vids perfect as they are entertaining and informative from start to finish don't change a thing
Im a police officer and my police cruiser really is #12, love it!
Don't call me radio Unit 12!!
Awesome job!!👍🏼👍🏼

Yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one that caught that, lol.

That was a very exciting opening sequence! Is Karen alive? Was Jimmy caught? Did Roscoe P. Coltrain and Flash get their doughnuts? One thing is for sure...the restoration was sweet! Plubplubplubplub!
Also ... the intro was awesome. I laughed out loud ...
Fantastic
If you do the 1969 cast (with the red light), or the red fire chief version, you should make it a Mounty highway patrol car.
love 442. i collected all variations of 442....damn
Only one I missed out on was the Military Police Cruiser.
Glad you kept the wheels.. Gives it that Country roads driven hard classic Hotwheels look. Oh and I died at 6:49: Hey Boys! Y'all seen Jimmy? LMAO!
My job makes the trizac sanding sponge. And the sanding sponges. And your green and purple scotch brite pads
Haha the amount of glitter on that glove... Now I'm very pumped to see when you actually do try out the metallic paints
I didn't realize on the bottle I grabbed, if you go back and look it says (coarse) So.. big blakes.. duh my bad
Awesome job,2 for 1👍
I would love to have one of those.
amazing wonderful
Nice set
O boy what did Jimmy do now 🤣🤣 hopefully he got away. Another job well done 🤘one of my favorite castings
Jimmy's got a rap sheet as long as your arm
Apperently very popular while in stir also . . .
Love you references
