Solder job wasn't clean, tried to fix it, lost the part. baremetalHW literally keeping it real. :) That's exactly what would happen to anyone else trying to do a similar job. Love your videos, man
Yep
Thats coz BM is the og
Just amazing how much time and effort goes into these projects. Lots of respect.
Agreed
that fade at 2:10 made my soul happy 😂
Great work as always! 👌
Ouch, I remember these old beasties on the streets of London, mixed in with the newer types that were becoming the norm, creaky and quite worn out by the 70's but still workable until the FX4 (Cockney Cab II) became the only cabs available. Quite funny is Dr Who's Daleks used the roof indicators off of these taxis, the BBC were masters of cheap tat as props.
Lol, dude you're gonna be confusing 'em into thinking a Cockney Cab was an actual thing. Naughty boy, made me laugh, though. Haven't I seen those indicators on old Landrovers and Morris Minors too?
@@stevewatts3502 Hackney Cab is what we say in the UK.
Yer, is what I was saying... derived from Hackney Carriage. Not being born within the sound of Bow Bells myself, dunno if I would be totally copus with "Cockney Cab" if I was... but, we Brits can take the mickey out of ourselves with no drama. (er, mostly;)
Indeed a long time consuming restoration but enjoyable to see the finished spendour of a classic taxi Very good video Thanks
Beautiful job repairing this casting. This would be perfect for cracked A pillars.I Always look forward to your videos.
You’re awesome man, I love the hard work, and dedication, you put into your models, they’re amazing, love your channel man.👍👍😁
I don't remember when I arrived at this channel, but I am so very happy I did. While I may not collect die-cast cars; I whole heartily appreciate the enthusiasm and dedication to this hobby. It helps motivate me to get some of my own projects done and I can not thank you enough for that.
Looking amazing, love your efforts to making the car new again. Thank you for sharing your story. God bless you and your family
Looks great. Thanks for sharing the tip. A model done in copper plating would be cool.

Now I have the idea to do a bere metal model I copper plating
Turned out beautiful. For soldering, just be sure that both parts you want to solder together are hot enough, and remember that solder will flow in the direction of the heat source. If you hold the iron at the top of a crack and feed the solder in at the bottom, it’ll actually run upwards towards the source. Be sure your iron’s tinned when you head in (helps transfer heat into the part) and that’s all there is to it
You, Sir, are a modern alchemist That is truly powerful magick you possess! A great restoration and more experience in reversing the effects of time on diecasts!
Magnificent work. Great color too.
Nice work! I love the way you copper-plated it and soldered that! it came out great
Looks great! Love the way you shut down the haters right up front!
Best to ignore them all together
Fabulous restoration work. Great paint job, and I really love the color.
Turned out great.
I like how the paint looks shaded in different areas.
Very cool technique you have for repairing these cars. Looking forward to future restorations as always.
Your videos are hypnotic
Your restoration looks fantastic. I can’t even notice the repairs. Thanks so much for all of the tips and for posting the video. Take care.
One of your best restorations! Just great!
Love the color. Great job. Enjoyed that very much. Excellent. Thank you. 👏🖒♱😼🙄
Yes soldering (sod-er-ing) is the way I pronounce it too. I think your problem may be that the copper plating isn't getting into the void in the crack. After you do the plating the solder should flow into the void, but the raw metal is still there. All you are doing is covering the crack which will join the metal but not be 100%. If there was a way you could enlarge the crack and get the copper to plate the inside it'll work a lot better. Then of course you run the risk of breaking the part. If you watch the video closely you an see the flux then the lead melt and flow around the joint BUT not flow into the crack. You are making what we call a cold joint. That is a joint where the solder doesn't flow well. It is a good procedure though. I'm retired after 40 years with "The Bell System" and soldered nearly every day for most of my time. The model came out great.

Awesome repair work!! Looks great, and as always your paint job is second to none!! Thanks for the great ideas on repairing diecast.👍👍
Awesome transformation. Every video of yours, I always learn something new.
Love the color. Great job!
It will forever amaze me how much work goes into these, but in the end it's all worth it, as they look awesome! Thanks for another great video as always. :)
Got it done through 'blood' sweat and tears. Looks amazing! Great work. Love that color on this car.
Great job . Looks fantastic !
The advertising for other channels is outstanding! SOCIAL Media at its best💐❤️🤗
Excellent work, I've been wanting to try chopping and/or channeling vehicles, and being able to solder them will make it so much better.
I think you did great with this, no worries. Looking forward to future episodes.
It looks great and the technique for soldering is very helpful. I saw Danny's Diecast Disaster Mad Max tanker and it looked great. Thanks for the new technique.
One of my favorites,, love those red lines👍🏻
You're awesome, you're the Bob Ross of diecast restoration.
Great to see you still honing your skills, kudos!
Love your videos and projects. You are very skilled as a modeler, video editor and narrator. Very enjoyable to watch and learn.
Very timely and excellent video. I've been wanting to try the copper plate/solder method ever since your first video on the subject. I recently got in three Matchbox Lomas Ambulance's with missing/broken rear bumpers. Looking forward to clearing off the work bench and giving it a go.
That looks great, the color really pops.
I can see a lot of love went into this! Nice
Top Job Fella. I too use your method for soldering diecast, have done for years and it never fails.
I like the way the details pop under the paint
A beautiful restoration - and I learn so much thank you
Great color choice....looks sharp
Awesome restoration!
I love your vids man keep it up 👍🏻👌🏼
9n is the best 😜
getting real slick with the editing! and the car came out gorgeous (as always). love your work!
Awesome video, awesome end result!
Thanks for sharing - always looking forward to your videos, & you don't disappoint.
Absolutely stunning,you are the man.
One of the only channels on RUclips that makes me genuinely excited to see a new upload, keep doing what you’re doing man!👍😃
Awesome as always , cab came out great . Great video , Mike Espo......
Great job. That's a sweet C. cab.
I really liked the look of this car after the new paint. I think it’s the way the bright body finish shins through the translucent paint on all the many high spots in the car.
Thanks for all the good videos.
Nice and most informative for this type of repair. Thank you.
Dude! Danny's Diecast Disasters is AWESOME! Those are some straight-up SHTF post-apocalypse, Hellbilly Delux rigs!
Thanks for the link! Instant subscription!
You really have a talent in the restoration of these models! Your videos are beautiful and interesting! The only detail that somehow does not fit on this model is the sticker, but maybe I'm just wrong. Thanks for the video!
I love all of your ideas
I have become addicted to watching you restore these cars .
I love your videos I like how you bringing back these old Hot Wheel cars
It's a real beauty, nice work
Nice one. Paint came out just right.
Very nice resotration
Great work man, this was a beautiful restoration 👍🏼👍🏼
beautiful job!!!! and on my favorite redline !!!
The soldered bumper looks great!
The restored model looks great
Thank you for sharing this, I hope to use it on some of my projects.
FINALLY. The master imbues us with his knowledge!
*I love tools with lights so you can easily see what you're working on. I got it on my power drill, my soldering iron, and I am looking to replace my old dremel so I might just look into getting the dremel micro as well. I just need to check to see if it fits with my other attachments and gear I use with my dremel. Thanks for the tip! I've been looking forward to this video since you showed the copper plating in another video, I am getting the equipment to plate some stuff too.*
To me, as long the parts are glued together....that's good enough for me!
You did alright with the soldering 👍🏻
I have a few broken diecast cars that I need to repair. I have used glue in the past but glad to see a better method of repair going forward that I can try myself
Wow! Awesome job!😎👍
Looks cool... nice restoration
That came out great. Looks mint
The car looks great! I have never seen that one before. I think that's a first for me. Great job on the soldering.

Hey Danny I love your stuff, I bet you pick up a few subs with the shout out.
I love these videos, keep them coming!
Really great job
Like nite and day, considering what you had to work with. Good job and thanks for the video. Keep on rolling!
Great result 🙂
Nice restoration. I never knew that Hotwheels made their version of the iconic Austin FX3 Taxi from the late 40's, you live and you learn.
Keep up the great work 👍👍👍👍
Looks great as usual!! Keep em comin!
Great work
Great job. Good info on the "Crumblers". I have seen it but never heard a good explanation as to why it happens. Thank you!
Mazak rot or zinc pest occurs from impurities in the alloy causing crystalline corrosion. It's more common in but not exclusive to high humidity situations. Modern railway models still sometimes suffer from chassis rot, which is a pain in a £100-200 locomotive.
The magenta paint job really suits this one, nice work
Absolutely love it man
