    My dad has a 63 impala he had painted plum crazy purple. It’s an awesome color. Also I love the restoration videos but please stop covering all the projects in the same dirt and mud. It makes it look like you’re trying to make the project look worse than it is. I only say this because EVERYTHING you restore has the exact same grime on it. I personally think the great skills you have fixing the actual damage is already enough to keep people interested. You’re a brilliant toy restorer and you shouldn’t make things up.

    One more thing. I don’t know who cut that car to cause fake damage but they shouldn’t have. Like I said you are a great restorer and even if there’s minimal damage I still like real things and would enjoy just a refreshing of the toys.

      May have been used in a movie scene. With the right angles and camera perspective it looks convincing.

    What was so odd about this is that the way it was found looked somewhat how someone would find a real car that had been crashed then abandoned.

      I was saying the damage looks kinda like a real car crash and abandonment. But it's a diecast car.

    Nobody will mistreat these Highway 61 cars this way. These models are worth too much. Unless that person really WANTED his model to be this way. But anyway, I like to see the tricks on how to restore these. I would have used BareMetal foil (before installing the glass) for the chrome trim instead of the Molotow pen, as BareMetal is more durable. Nice job, thanks for the molding tips and body straightening tutorial! What paint do you use for the body?

      It’s a GMP model not Highway 61. And it wasn’t mistreated. Someone went to great lengths to create a wrecked version of the car for a diorama or something. It would have been better to just buy another perfect example and put them side by side as a before and after in your collection. A lot of hard work was erased here with a lot more hard work.

    given how near brand new those screws look like they are, despite how both before and after are cool. i feel like this car was deliberately destroyed to be "restored". because how the front is solid metal and even snapped off says either it was thrown off a building or hit with a hammer.

      Yeah, some model vehicle restoration videos look fake, deliberately broken and dirt rubbed in. I'm not sure about this one.

    You pre-bent the chassis yourself, this is clearly visible after the sandblasting. The 2 cuts, one in front and one on the side, look too clean and are done on purpose, so you could bend the chassis afterwards. You, sir, are not fooling anyone.

      You are probably right but I think the purpose here is to serve as a tutorial to demonstrate different techniques for restoring these types of models.
