Who needs a monthly subscription to cable tv when there are such finely produced videos like this on youtube. Well done sir, great choice of casting and i agree with you on detailing. Interiors detailed enhance the finished product ten fold. Cant wait for the next installment. 🙌🏽
Really great channel you've got here! I appreciate that you don't just restore these cars, but you add details and personalize them. They look like actual miniature cars, rather than model cars and I really think that's cool. When you get around to your video on your custom decals I'd love to see how you go about designing and having the decals themselves made. Thanks a bunch and keep kicking ass.
You're not alone. I think all of us watching these videos make noises. I also make them when I build airplanes. Tac Tac Tac Tac! Wooosh! Kaboom! (Mosquito attacking enemy shipping)
The first 10 seconds of this video completely blew me away. The sound effects and stunt driving put this in the realms of a huge budget Hollywood movie. Oh...and the finished car is fantastic!
Terrific. Always enjoy seeing a little creativity when renovating an old model. Will look forward to learning about how you make your own decal sheets.
Luv your restorations,,,in the mid 70s I'd go in the 240z and later 260z I was only a youngster and at 10 I squeezed into the parcel shelf area,,don't think I could now,,,I'm working on a Matchbox Dodge Challenger in red,,,,can't wait to get it done,,,to do the wheel silver I use a zero brush and cut it down to about a millimetre,,,,,Great vid,,,,have an awesome week,,,
Thank yo Irfan. I too much prefer the 240Z . My friend restored one many years ago and they look superb from any angle. Love them. Thanks for watching and your tip!
Yes dude, on,y found your channel. Couple of days ago and I am so hooked, even though you only have 3 videos, I can’t wait for more of them, keep going, stay golden
This the type of channel i wished someone made , amazing restoration and detail work , these old castings once detailed properly rivals the current Tomica Premium line . I subscribe ......... please keep pumping out more videos . Thanks
Yet another fantastic job on a classic sports car. Realistically done inside and out. I wish I had 1/4 of your talent ... I would never leave my workshop !!
Thank you for that. Its a fine balance with the length, some say its too long,others like you enjoy it. I'll try my best to please but I don't want to cut out too much and skip areas of importance so thanks for the comment. Glad you liked it :)
The yellow FD and 180 on the lifts in the shot at the end look beautiful! I'd love to see them again in more detail. Maybe you could do a showcase video in the future highlighting some of your work on other models? I'm enjoying your videos, thanks for sharing your work!
Thank you Colby for watching. I didn't want to bore people with a look at my past cars actually! I could look into this though if others are interested. :)
This makes me restore a 2013 mustang that ive got from my friend a long time ago , cheers mate ! Keep doing what you are doing , you have earned yourself a new subscriber
I remember one night, after seeing the band SLAYER at airport music hall in allentown, pa, I rolled onto the highway and right next to me is a '69 corvette stingray. I raced that car all the way to the easton exit, and he was just playing with me. I had master of puppets on my stereo, and that L24 was SCREAMING! I was going 104mph, and I could'nt hear the music. I got off at the exit, and rolled into a dunkin donuts. I got out and my legs were shaking. Never drove like that again. But damn, that was fun. 1986!
I just got this in my recommendations. I get so much junk, and this I'm very interested in. I've watched other Customization videos, but yours never came up. So I subscribed and clicked the bell. I just want to say that this is one of the best jobs I've seen. You did something I've always thought about.....the interior, and your's turned out to be stellar!! Actually the entire car is amazing. I had a desire to do this. I bought a really good drill, some good bits, the round wire wheels you had, some paint(some ended up being SO BAD), and of course brushes and paint remover. My first paint remover was a spray can and it wouldn't work on die cast cars. The second one, I did a bit more research, worked great. However I jumped in with both feet into a frozen lake. Research, research, research.... I should have gotten a Dremel. As I found out the hard way those metal disks are sharp and don't work on a drill. Trying to rig something, BAD idea. In my defense I received very bad news from my doctor. My financial situation was bleak as was my prognosis. Terminal emphysema. A slow.moving but eventually deadly COPD. My ability to hunt for Hot Wheels...GONE. The real depressing part, the USA FINALLY got Majorette here again. But I couldn't do anything about it, and the our EXCLUSIVE home for Majorette...Toys R Us, shut down for good. So now I'm stuck in a pickle so to speak, BUT I'm using this time to STUDY. Watch informative videos like yours and cram as much knowledge into my head as possible. That way IF I get a chance to try again I will KNOW EXACTLY what I need, why, and how to use and utilize them. So thank you. I have a couple older Majorette that aren't as rough as the one you did in this video. So now I have sone ideas....I hope..lol. I just don't want to mess it up. Majorette cars are so perfectly detailed and I also am a fan of the suspension. My races I used to run, the Majorette cars, when I'd run a ramp course would literally do a Dukes of Hazzard bounce after the jump....IT WAS AWESOME...LOL. Again THANK YOU. I really appreciate and respect someone that not only has incredible skills, but are willing to pass them on and teach others to do the same. Major RESPECT and thumbs up.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Edster.... I don't quite know what it is about these little cars that gets people so hooked. For me it was THE toys to have as a kid, no XBOX'x or Playstations.... you either rode your bike and fell out of trees of played with Matchbox cars. I hated football and the like. The Majorettes always had a great selection of European cars with great suspension as you say which added to the realism. It was always Hot Wheels over here in the UK that was exotica! The other thing for me is its a cheap little hobby. All the old cars are ones from my childhood so I haven't gone out and paid silly money for them, they're worth much more in memories anyway, but the fact I've used them, trashed them and now fixing them up has come full circle. With newer cars, again, they're cheap and cheerful. I don't go out of my way to buy them, but if I see them in a store, or walking past a store, I'll have a rummage and see what comes up. I begrudge paying a daft price on eBay for newer cars that potentially I come across for peanuts in the store. I've done this also for the last 20 years so have amounted quite a collection of new carded ones. Thank you for watching , subscribing and the great comment. Best wishes
post more retro resto vids pls! love watching the cars i played with as a kid being brought back to life. Hate seeing them in a sorry state in antique shops etc
Thank you. I enjoy doing the interior. I didn't want to start off to over the top but they do get more intricate in the videos to come ;) Thanks for watching :)
Thank you for doing a variety of cars and not just Hot Wheels and Matchbox. Majorette is a line I've LOVED. The "suspension" always made those cars a bit more fun. But sadly they were never as fast as a Hot Wheels. But then again Hot Wheels didn't have the boing boing a Majorette had..lol. Anyway Thank You.
Thank you Farid :) Its one that is coming up real soon, either the 205T16, the RS200 or I have a Porsche 959 that I may turn intoteh 'Rothmans' rally car. Thanks for watching :)
Another great job. I followed you on Instagram. I've always hated it when people do a custom, not a restoration, and don't do the little details (i.e. tail lights, side markers or trim). Or they just slather on paint and call it a detailed grill. You never disappoint. Thank you.
Thank you very much I appreciate that. I guess its each to their own but I'm with you on that. I prefer to make them more of a little model than a restored diecast.... though again it depends what I'm doing. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
@@SidewaysKing75 I do agree with you with to each their own. And although I don't prefer it and it hurts to watch (LoL). I have seen some pretty awesome customs without a ton of detail. I have never openly criticized anyone for not doing detail and I never will. Everyone I've watched on RUclips doing this sort of thing truly seem to do their best and enjoy what they are doing. Those are the two most important things in this hobby. No one can fail at this unless they don't really try. I'm hoping to get my channel up and running within a few months, I just have some home projects to take care of first. Like restoring an old door from the 60's to look nice so we can put in a doggie door without destroying the homes original door (we're renting). Again, thank you for your videos and sharing your knowledge.
@@woodandwheelz totally agree with everything you've said. There's a lot of stuff I like and an awful lot I don't but of the ones I don't I certainly wouldn't say so as it is each to their own and to them it's perfect, and why wouldn't it be.... Even when people give me grief for it I still bite my lip and am like 'Thanks for your opinion 😁👍🏻' ... LOL 😂 All the best
@@SidewaysKing75 The Mini's for the game are modified hotwheels and the like. some look like this imgur.com/a/O8UNZP5 but I'd love to see the type of work you could do!
@@G0ldmoon Oh WOW yes. I did do this a lot with 1/24th scale cars turning them into Mad Max apocalyptic vehicles. It would be something I would video one day as there's one or two I have ready for my Instagram page on this theme. Many thanks :)
@@SidewaysKing75 Awesome, do you think you might set up a pateron in the future? I think some people would be happy to contribute, if only to take some of the pressure off, and perhaps help with keeping the videos regular and consistent.
Looks good. Just one tip for the Suspension: For Modell railroads you can by Spring wire in diferrent Diameters, normally they come in 100 cm length. With a 1 mm spring wire you could eassily built the beeded spring w/out hte hustle to get in form like with a paper Clip. I think a papaer Clip will tend to get " soft" over time and the spring efect will be much lesser.
Great videos man. Nice to see a UK builder on the scene too. I build and restore full size cars for a living but I love seeing toys being done with the same love and attention. Keep it up
Thank you its appreciated:) I've done some cars and bikes over the years, purely as an amateur car nut though, mainly as it was something you did as a young lad looking after your motors. It in turn ignited my interest and other than space and tools stopping me from doing the bigger jobs I loved, and still do, getting my hands filthy. Mainly do bikes nowadays. Thank you for watching :)
Absolutely superb as always - incredible attention to detail in the restoration process and some fantastic tips too - I’d love to see a full tutorial on the window making procedure? - Cheers.
nice resto, the model isnt hard to find so i would go for one with better windows. i have 3 of them and the way you detail this car just shows how much details these old majorettes have. the opening part on majorette stay forever. thats quality but i didnt know about the details till you showed. good vid, thanks
Thanks for the video, great work! I have the same model, inherited from my older brothers. I don't dare mess with it yet, still learning and practicing on some newer/cheaper/nameless models. Greetings from Brazil
That turned out beautifully. Wow. I WISH there were more places that sold axles and rubber tires. Especially big mudder tires for 4x4's. I haven't had much success in gutting cars for the tires. Plus I have a hard time trashing a car just for the wheels. Add to that my equipment isn't complete. I didn't think a Dremel would be necessary, but it can help a lot. I kind of went about it backwards. Anyway the tire issue for me is a problem.
Thank you Edster 😁👍 For 4x4 wheels and tyres try www.kyamsildesigns.co.uk/ superb 3d printed parts you need to paint but come out great. Also shopmonoblock.com/ and 'One:64 wheels' on Facebook
Who needs a monthly subscription to cable tv when there are such finely produced videos like this on youtube. Well done sir, great choice of casting and i agree with you on detailing. Interiors detailed enhance the finished product ten fold. Cant wait for the next installment. 🙌🏽
Thank you very much its really appreciated :)
Really great channel you've got here! I appreciate that you don't just restore these cars, but you add details and personalize them. They look like actual miniature cars, rather than model cars and I really think that's cool.

Thanks a bunch and keep kicking ass.
Thanks Christopher I appreciate it. I'll get my way of doing decals up soon. Thanks for watching :)
0:01 I thought I was the only one making that sound effects and crashing dramatization.
Cool custom
You're not alone. I think all of us watching these videos make noises. I also make them when I build airplanes. Tac Tac Tac Tac! Wooosh! Kaboom! (Mosquito attacking enemy shipping)
Superb job, the attention to detail is outstanding. It's great watching your channel grow.
Thank you.... Without great comments like this I would still be hiding in my man cave like I have been the last three decades. Many thanks :)
If you were to build irl custom cars you’d have a television show in no time.
Thank you Sir its appreciated :)
The first 10 seconds of this video completely blew me away. The sound effects and stunt driving put this in the realms of a huge budget Hollywood movie. Oh...and the finished car is fantastic!
😂 Well Lucasfilm was calling but I had other things on 👍🏻
SidewaysKing75 😂😂No end to your talents!
@@JURASSICDIVERUK many thanks I appreciate it 🙏🏻
Good to see a toy car guy wearing a wedding ring: gives me hope. Another great job on both the video and car. Keep ‘em coming.
Hahaha..... I've always been a model geek and she knew this when she married me 16 years ago LOL! Thanks for watching :)
I just absolutely adore this series.
It's *almost* like ASMR for people that don't want other people know that they listen to ASMR.
Thank you.... this has made me smile :)
Terrific. Always enjoy seeing a little creativity when renovating an old model. Will look forward to learning about how you make your own decal sheets.
Thank you, I'll get that feature up shortly.
Great work top job finish, love the broom broom sound effects lol
Thank you..... I still a kid at heart :) All the best.
Finally!!! Somebody detailed the inside of the doors, so much wasted potential. Brilliant job!! Love your work
Thank you for watching and commenting 👍🏻
Awesome restoration !!!!!!!! I always loved the look of the Nissan Datsun. As my Dad had one in the 80's.
I've been wondering why no one is filling on casting mistakes or gouges. Glad to see someone who cares enough to take this extra step. Well done.
Thank you Jim for watching and commenting :)
Great way to start off a new year! Your attention to interior detail is a pleasure to watch. Please keep up the quality work.
Thank you Brian its appreciated.

It was very detailed for a 1970s child, but so am I so...... great job on the resto.
Many thanks for watching 🏎🚗😁👍🏻
You do the best detail work I’ve seen
WOW! Thank you very much I appreciate it :)
Another brilliant job. Love what you did with the interior, too.
Thank you David :)
I find these videos amazing. Love the level of detail you put on them. The transformation is worth the effort and time you put in.
Thank you very much it's appreciated 😁

Excellent work mate....

Another great video, the more in depth you make it, the better the watch! I enjoyed seeing how you make new windows.

Thank you Richard you're welcome. A very Happy New Year to you too :)
Happy New Year, keep up the good work!
Discovered your channel I think two days ago, great content so far, really entertaining.
Thank you its appreciated.
i gotta say this is one of the nicest channel i discovered recently on this website
I remember one night, after seeing the band SLAYER at airport music hall in allentown, pa, I rolled onto the highway and right next to me is a '69 corvette stingray. I raced that car all the way to the easton exit, and he was just playing with me. I had master of puppets on my stereo, and that L24 was SCREAMING! I was going 104mph, and I could'nt hear the music.
I got off at the exit, and rolled into a dunkin donuts. I got out and my legs were shaking. Never drove like that again.
But damn, that was fun. 1986!
Sounds like the good old days my friend :)
Another great clip thank you excellent attention to detail as always
Thank you its appreciated :)

Thank you very much its appreciated :)
Awesome job I love it and I love you little ramp truck
Thank you its appreciated :)
Another thing bout this channel is it makes the cars look badass
Excellent detailing at the end. Makes a huge difference to the final look? You have great attention to detail
Thank you very much :) All the best
I had a lot of cars that ended up looking like that. We called it "mash up derby" and destroyed more cars than I would care to admit. Haha
Thank God toy cars don't come with real vehicle insurance. Haha
I think we all did it at some point and instantly regretted it LOL!
Theraputical to watch. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you Sven..... New one coming up soon :)
Wow! That came out beautifully! I have an old Majorette Volvo 760 GLE I plan on restoring and this video was a big help!
Thank you. I'd like to see that when its done :) Thanks for watching!
Nice job especially the windshield and glass, and great job with the interior paint!!!
Thank you Lee for watching and commenting :)

I like how you do more detail that others I’ve seen, like the painted lights, bumpers, etc and your own decals! Great work!
Thank you its appreciated :)
You sir are like the Bob Ross of diecast modification lol
Hahaha I love that. Bob Ross is ace! Thank you its appreciated :)
Glad you got a laugh from it, keep doing what you're doing, because your videos are by far some of the most comprehensive I've seen by far and away
Wow! It's your attention to details that makes your work awesome.
Thank you dovasal its appreciated :)

Great stuff once again. Especially loved the paint work on the interior, often overlooked. Cheers mate.
Thank you. I enjoy doing the interior. I didn't want to start off to over the top but they do get more intricate in the videos to come ;) Thanks for watching :)
Beautiful craftsmanship. Great inspiration for my own efforts. Wicked.

Thank you for doing a variety of cars and not just Hot Wheels and Matchbox. Majorette is a line I've LOVED. The "suspension" always made those cars a bit more fun. But sadly they were never as fast as a Hot Wheels. But then again Hot Wheels didn't have the boing boing a Majorette had..lol. Anyway Thank You.
They did have that 'boing, boing' you're right 👍🏻 Made it more realistic when doing the getaway chases!
Really enjoy your customs work, very clean. I don't know if you do requests but how about a rally car? You seem to be a fan anyway. :P
Thank you Farid :) Its one that is coming up real soon, either the 205T16, the RS200 or I have a Porsche 959 that I may turn intoteh 'Rothmans' rally car. Thanks for watching :)

That turned out beautifully. Wow. I WISH there were more places that sold axles and rubber tires. Especially big mudder tires for 4x4's. I haven't had much success in gutting cars for the tires. Plus I have a hard time trashing a car just for the wheels. Add to that my equipment isn't complete. I didn't think a Dremel would be necessary, but it can help a lot. I kind of went about it backwards. Anyway the tire issue for me is a problem.
Thank you Edster 😁👍 For 4x4 wheels and tyres try www.kyamsildesigns.co.uk/ superb 3d printed parts you need to paint but come out great. Also shopmonoblock.com/ and 'One:64 wheels' on Facebook
