  • Hot Wheels Charlie’s Angels Super Van Restomod - Recently I restored a Hot Wheels Paramedic Super Van and in the video mentioned that I have several of the Super Van castings laying around. Looking through my decals, I found a set of Second Chance Redlines Charlie’s Angels van decals. All I can figure is that Second Chance had the old Corgi casting in mind when they designed these decals. I hope you like how this turned out! #hotwheels #charliesangels #supervan #corgi

    Awesome custom Jim! I have the Corgi Charlie's Angels van in my collection and your custom looks like a welcomed fresh take on the OG. The colors are perfect and Redline Real Riders make it even better! 👊❤

    Like the way it came out! I remember Charlie's Angels but wasn't as into Bosley as you guys were the angels. If I remember correctly they 'showed' Charlie once. I liked Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith but was indifferent to Farrah, likely caused all the guys were drooling over her. Thanks for the membership only access.

      Thanks! I'm really happy with how it looks! Ahhhh...I always drooled more over Jaclyn Smith than Farrah lol...and I look somewhat like Bosley these days lol. I'm going to try to do the early access to videos for members when it's possible (this one is about a day early) but sometimes I cut it pretty close to the deadline lol

    I observe your livery would've worked as well for Corgi (which is I think a MATTEL property now) as theirs did. I think this would've worked for the October build. If there was any show that raised awareness of breasts for straight men in the 70's it was Charlie's Angels. Despite the famous Farrah Fawcett poster, I was more partial to Jacklyn Smith and Kate Jackson. I married a woman both smart and beautiful as any of those angels anyway! Have fun with your toys!

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  День назад

      "If there was any show that raised awareness"...I'm really trying to avoid making a joke that immediately came to mind when I read that lol It really would have worked for the Paint it Pink build, but the build truly intended for that event came together well...fortunately :) It had a little more body work involved and does, much like this build, use a casting that I'm particularly fond of :) Thanks so much!

  • @lostonwallace1396
    @lostonwallace1396 2 дня назад

    The back of the casting looked to be really rough! I absolutely love the white and pink combo! I don't know that you could have done this better, man! It came out looking fantastic, Jim! As a kid, I had that Farrah Fawcett poster on my wall, next to a Catherine Bach poster where she was rockin' the Daisy Dukes. lol. I think I had a Lynda Carter Wonder Woman too.

    Beautiful work Jim. Nice crisp lines and the whole theme really came together. I’ve always had good luck with second chance decals too. Another great video.

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  День назад

      The Second Chance decals are probably the best, or at least tied for the best, of any I've used...especially when it comes to how easily they soak off the backing paper and hold up during application. They're very similar to the decal paper I use for the decals I print for myself...and I've used some terrible papers along the way before the paper I use now lol. Thanks so much!

  • @BrianMcKnight68
    @BrianMcKnight68 2 дня назад

    I’m glad you did this. I have those decals and assumed I would just paint the whole van pink….now I’m questioning that. I think you’re probably right about not being able to see that bottom stripe 🤔. This one turned out great, Jim!

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  День назад

      Thanks Brian! I think if you go with the whole van being pink, you have to be very careful about the pink you use. This one wouldn't have worked well with the stripe. Thanks so much!

  • @Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda-Was-HWRL
    @Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda-Was-HWRL 2 дня назад

    Looks great! Remember the series well. I would think the bigger issue with the decal is the pinks not matching well and you could see the stripe… and not in the good way. Love the final result, thanks!

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  День назад

      You're right about the color mismatch - before I made the final decision on paint, I sprayed a white plastic spoon and compared it to the decal color...and it was just not enough of an offsetting color, nor was it a match...it was in that awkward in-between range, so white seemed like the best choice and I couldn't be any happier with the result. Thanks!

    anyway, came out great, interesting look. someone at Second Chance must be a fan, too. :)

    The Corgi van you show at the start is the larger scale (1:43?) - they made those vans in that size as well as 1:64, and a lot of the liveries are duplicated between them, so Superman, Spiderman etc

    Good thing Corgi didn't choose this color combi back then, otherwise your cool idea would just be a copy.
