JDHOLTZ34 yea i wanted realism when my hotwheels were in an 'accident' - i found this large rock and borrowed dads hammer...had so many made a junkyard in this dirt pile we had growing up. funny thing is 40 years later my folks are still digging up my cars i burried so long ago just doing yard work.
Super, super nice!! I'm into restores also because of the high prices and rarity of the high end castings. I purchase them for my own collection, with no intent of selling them, so, value means nothing to be. I really enjoy your tutorials/videos!! Please keep them coming...
More Redline Restoration Please! (ps, maybe add a before and after picture next to each other at the end, so we can truly enjoy your hard work! Keep it up man!)
It never ceases to amaze me that something that was probably made back then that sold for a dollar or so could be worth so much today. $30 seems like a lot to me, but not up against what you're telling me that one in Nice condition would cost. And I like the fact that you brought it back from the grave. Nice job!
I like your approach on how you restore cars. You look at it with solid perspective and don’t go over the top with your expectations. This hobby is supposed to be fun and relive stress. I learned so much from this video. Thanks.
I know, they look fantastic. There's a guy that lives near me that has one, but it looks in terrible shape, with the interior torn apart, and probably no engine. I would love to see it restored, but I don't think that's happening anytime soon.
Lol My brothers always smashed their hotwheels. Then they'd make a "Demolition Derby" pile out of them. It's amazing to me to see ANY Hotwheel make it past all this time at all, especially the original ones. Amazing. That car is like what? $250 to $500 in value? Crazy! Very beautiful restoration!
My own Hot Wheels project is something I always wanted to make but have never been rich enough to fund: an Automotive Museum! I plan on making mine out of boxes that I have painted up as the interior spaces of a large museum and using Velcro to stick the cars to the floor where they will be displayed (so the viewer can still pick them up and look at the details). I bought numerous new cars over the past few years, but figured my own childhood collection was far too beat up for much of the exhibit; now the techniques you describe may help a few of them come back to glory and find a place in the Collection. And now I won't feel I have to buy a pristine late 70's/early 80's Hot Bird (Pontiac Trans Am) like I had when I was a kid. I can fix one instead! Great job!
That Mustang looks amazing. Still have my copper one from my childhood. windshield is scratched and one of the hood pins are broken but everything is there. The paint, however, is gone. It was bad enough that I sanded it off long ago. Love to give this a try. Thank you for the videos
I love your videos I really like the pragmatic way you approach the repairs. The hot glue is the perfect answer and make total sense. Sitting on your shelf it will look stunning and what few times you open the hood the hot glue will work just fine. The best part of watching your videos is now I don’t have to buy a hot wheel and do all this work myself. Looking forward to your next video.
Amazing to look back at your older posts and see how your skills and techniques have developed. Love the channel and great to see some excellent restorations.
May 1968 i walked around the corner in Woolworths toy aisle and saw one of the highlights of my life, the new hot wheels were finally here in NB Canada after the commercial being on tv for months. My friend had had gotten two in Bangor Maine a month earlier and I don't know any one who still has theirs but me. My 48 early redlines are in pretty good shape, my red Mustang is identical but with a rod runner crack in the back window. Beautiful resto job on yours.
Loved the restoration! You should open a tiny car garage!🤣😂🤣 Hot Wheels are my favorite. I can’t even begin to tell you how many I have picked up through the years! I scored a Nitty Gritty Kitty 1967 metallic red line. Nice tires and black interior. Not a scratch on it perfect . Low mileage.😄
Right, Something about them that’s soothing. Others have excited with upbeat voices and music. These are very low tone and professional, one of my favorites.
Today I went to a few antique stores and completely scored! I got a Red Baron in really good condition for 18 dollars and then I got a Heavy Chevy with a number 5 for $9.50 The last hotwheel I got was the purple dragster from 1975 for 12 dollars. I forgot the name of the dragster. Today was a great day! :)
That came out really good. I’m currently gathering the things I’ll need to start restoring some hot wheels myself. Been binge watching these resto videos , great job.
Excellent. Really good work in the restoration. Interesting video; pace is excellent. I have this exact same car, it was the first Hot Wheels car I got back in the 1960's as a kid - it's always been my favorite and of all my cars it's the only one that's shown wear like in your first part of this video. Mine doesn't have oxidation though, but regardless it was SO interesting to see yours "reclaimed" so to speak. I love it! Thank you for posting!
Man.. I love watching these videos!! I've kind of seen your knowledge, and qbility improve from your earlier videos. Youre doing great and remain one of my favorites.
Well, well here am, if my wife knew... But it is what it is...I have been in and out of the hot wheel scene, it seems all my life...Ask my dear mother and wife, not to mention the kids... So it is good to see that I am not along in my little love of hot wheels... The only thing is I have a tendency to give them to the children of family and friends, for I do remember the fun and sense they gave me as a child... At the moment I do have a small collection that I would be hard press to give away, the child does remains, I guess in all of us... So now I am happy to go on and keep up with my hot little cars, no matter how much my dear old wife nags me not too... Here's to you and your love of them too, you make them look new... For that I thank you... Look forward to the next video...Thank you................JRC
i'm glad someone is doing this because now i know how to restore my 1987 944 matchbox and redo it how i like, found it for 50 cents at a thrift store beaten and abused
Fascinating, I never even considered restoring 64th scale cars. Now here I am binge watching.
George Suprenant same...
George Suprenant Yep. Shed. Beer. Car resto no woman
I know right, I restore real cars but here I am watching this whole channel lol.
MotorMouth93 llama
pwlsllslwlowollll!!ll!a!!do
George Suprenant 100th like!
As always, utterly hypnotic and fascinating! A big part of it is your calm narration and no music, these videos are perfect.
I had hundreds of cars in the 70s, I smashed them all. (I had no adult supervision). I'll bet some would be valuable today.
Hey you used them for what they were intended for... if everyone had kept them in perfect condition they would be worth nothing.
JDHOLTZ34 yea i wanted realism when my hotwheels were in an 'accident' - i found this large rock and borrowed dads hammer...had so many made a junkyard in this dirt pile we had growing up. funny thing is 40 years later my folks are still digging up my cars i burried so long ago just doing yard work.
Everythingisgoingtobealright Why did you smash them all? I have about 500 hot wheels and match box cars still in a big tub and I'm 13 :)
like this model, its worth around 145-200 dollars rn so i had to pick one up
Same, I took a hammer to most.
this is gorgeous, love the color you chose.
Right, I’m not a fan of the color red but it really looks good on these old Hot Wheels.
I still have a massive box full of cars from when I was little and I'm almost certain I have this mustang in good condition.
Then you have a car that can be worth several hundred dollars.
I had that car when I was ten
Gimme
Well? Did ya find it?
@@baremetalHW thousand’s now
looks great !
you saved another one and made it worthy of being proudly displayed.
Super, super nice!! I'm into restores also because of the high prices and rarity of the high end castings. I purchase them for my own collection, with no intent of selling them, so, value means nothing to be. I really enjoy your tutorials/videos!! Please keep them coming...

my customs are not the same after watching your channel. thanks for sharing your tips and knowledge for us rookie customizers. 👍👍👍✌
WoW Iam Speechless after seeing the results .... That 68 mustang came out super Sweet :)
I like your approach on how you restore cars. You look at it with solid perspective and don’t go over the top with your expectations. This hobby is supposed to be fun and relive stress. I learned so much from this video. Thanks.
god, what is it about a 68 fastback, that looks so damn good
04dram04 the most beautiful body a mustang ever had
megaman616 a 67 and 68 are pretty much identical, but no the 69 is the prettiest. but its almoat identical to a 67 and 68
I have the fastback but it kinda broken... but the wheels not
I know, they look fantastic. There's a guy that lives near me that has one, but it looks in terrible shape, with the interior torn apart, and probably no engine. I would love to see it restored, but I don't think that's happening anytime soon.
everything?

I love how the light plays off of this color. Great shine!

Wow. That was amazing! Thank you for sharing.
I don't know how I got here....but wow, that was nice. I did not know people restored Hot Wheels.
How didnt you know
I didn't either.
That Mustang looks amazing.
Still have my copper one from my childhood. windshield is scratched and one of the hood pins are broken but everything is there. The paint, however, is gone. It was bad enough that I sanded it off long ago. Love to give this a try.
Thank you for the videos

Watching these redline restorations are satisfying and brilliant, seeing that Red Ford Mustang looks really magnificent.
Most of this is "Before my time" yet i still find myself bindge watching all of your videos.
Inspiring stuff. Thanks for making these videos and sharing your methods. You put such a lot of care into your work and your art shows through.
Amazing to look back at your older posts and see how your skills and techniques have developed. Love the channel and great to see some excellent restorations.

I LOVE this story!!! 🏁❤️🇺🇸✌️💯💯💯💯💯💯
i pick one up and i am 10 again@@kellyscott2421
What a great restoration! I like the fact that you are keeping it. Maybe one day you can do a video of your collection on display.
I would like that as well!
Beautiful results and a fantastic video!!
Beautiful results from the polishing and carefully layered paint job. What you did probably is better than what came with the original toy car.
Just wonderful.... You did an awesome job.. wonderful to watch...
Your show is really relaxing to watch. I appreciate that your methods develop over time.
I love restoring model kit cars its cool to see someone restoring hotwheels
Great stuff, preserving these amazing cars for the future.
Among furniture stores and automated car washes, this is another thing that I can only describe as magic.
Beautiful work! I love watching your videos!

I love the white interior. Sounds like it's a keeper for you. Very cool. Awesome job.
I like watching you. Your voice is very soothing too. Its nice to see you restore the little cars.
My opinion? MAGNIFICENT WORK!
Looks incredible! You did a great job.
thats a beauty, well done, Sir!
Outstanding once again !
Love watching these vids at night puts me right to sleep, something calming about it
Right, Something about them that’s soothing. Others have excited with upbeat voices and music. These are very low tone and professional, one of my favorites.
I had gotten a custom mustang beater in about the same shape as this but gold and no hood. It cost me around 5 bucks. Love these restos!!👍👍👍
He I like your Picture
I enjoy all of your work thank you !!!
+Bunny .wilson Thank you!
That’s fantastic, looks amazing 👍

Today was a great day! :)
nicely done. I don't have much time on my hands but when i do i will try restoring diecast cars too. Thanks for your videos.
You restored the interior better than freiburger :)
Damn... I just remember how happy they made that mustang on that one episode...
Who knows pigpen from episode 38?
Awesome, thanks for sharing, now you just planted a seed, will see if it grows.
great video. IV started custom hotwheels and you're videos help alot. thank you.
I'm binge watching now, car looks great
Amazing work!
Looks great brother! Your great at both the restoration and the presentation!
That came out great! Nice job on the Mustang!
I love that paint job!!!!😁😁😁😁🙌🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
That came out really good. I’m currently gathering the things I’ll need to start restoring some hot wheels myself. Been binge watching these resto videos , great job.
I love watching these.
I like this one, especially the black steering wheel. thumbs up!
Another beautiful car!
Very cool. Makes me want to restore all those hot wheels I ruined in the sandbox as a kid.

I think it looks awesome! Good job😃👍
Looks fantastic!
perfect thing to do this summer vacation!
Stunning colour
Its utterly magnificent.....
Thanks for sharing this with me and from one fellow human being to another fellow human being
Looks nice man. One heck of a job well done.
Love your work.
This video has given me inspiration to customize some of my own hot wheels haha. Thanks!
Cool restoration. Keep it going
This is more fun than watching an actual car restoration.
Guy knows his stuff. Knows Whats gonna happen before he uses his products to fix these cars. Plus little tips & tricks
I always like your work. Nice job and great videos.
Hello. Great job. Loved it.
Nice work on the resto/mod... Well done sir
who else watches these vids just to see how amaizing this guy does make custom hotwheels cars
Great work, Great job bud.
good job. I'm impressed.
Wow man that restoration came out very nice. All it takes is a little time and patience:)
+Diecastomix Very true.. thanks for watching!!
Nice work with the restoration
Fantastic job !
Excellent work. And the color really pops... I miss those old Hot Wheels of my youth. :)
They don't make them like they used to... even the remakes they make today don't measure up to what they used to make.
Great video! Well made and informative! I really enjoyed it. Please continue to make videos!
These videos are fantastic! I had been looking for a new hobby for the long Ohio winters, this may just be the thing.
Excellent. Really good work in the restoration. Interesting video; pace is excellent. I have this exact same car, it was the first Hot Wheels car I got back in the 1960's as a kid - it's always been my favorite and of all my cars it's the only one that's shown wear like in your first part of this video.

Man.. I love watching these videos!! I've kind of seen your knowledge, and qbility improve from your earlier videos. Youre doing great and remain one of my favorites.
Totally, one of the best on UA-cam. I just started watching earlier this year and out of about six others like him, nobody compares.
Looks great nice job

Nice restoration. looks great even with the minor pitting in the paintwork

Great work.
Nice job man! Totally worth 30 bucks
