I collected diecast cars growing up, and then they went into the attic, with the occasional add through the years. And then my son began collecting. While at home during the pandemic in 2020, I brought the collection down from the attic and gave my son all my duplicates, plus whatever else he wanted to take. His collection grew from less than 20 to more than 200 in an afternoon, and continues to grow almost every day.
Some of my old castings needed repair, and he was putting some good wear and tear on his new ones, so I began fixing them, which led me to TH-cam and discovering the world of diecast customizing, to which I'm happy to belong. While I brought diecast cars to my son, he brought TH-cam to me, and here we are.
That's my 1/64 story. In my 1/1 story, I'm a writer and filmmaker, and I work on crew for film and TV production (member IATSE Local 487). My crafts are set dressing and locations. I have an incredible wife and an amazing son.

Sela’s Citroen - Matchbox 1968 Citroen DS 21 Pallas

A custom made for a close friend going through a challenging time.

Happy birthday, Jackson Amazing! 🍁🎂👊
Happy birthday Jackson and a amazing video and you got a lot of cool car's for people and you and dad made amazing kill customs.
Happy Birthday, Jackson!🎉🎉😊🎂🎆🎇👍
Thanks for the ride!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKSON!!!!
looks great, with interesting details. :) does the hydropneumatic still work, or did they change it for some truck leaf springs? XD
Nice job 👏 👍
Interesting build 🤔 👍
VERY COOL ,but dont you know DS roof is fiberglass ? IT CAN BE EJECTED IN CASE OF CRASH
Thanks so much. You're the second comment to point that out. I honestly had no idea. Bad research on my part. But the custom is several states away. I will have to redeem myself by building another one and creating that cracked-fiberglass look. Thank you for reminding me to do complete research, and thanks for checking it out!
😲🔥🔥🔥😎 awesome
The roof is a plasik roof at a DS it cut not rost
I didn't know that. Thank you.
cool build happy belated Canada day
Also one of my favorite Hot Wheels originals Fast Fish has a perfect ,sleek body for all kinds of customizations. If Mattel can turn it into a wagon why not a flying fish. Los like it has survived a confrontation or two. Love the turbine in the back.
Great job. Came out super. You and those Fish. Looks awesome. Nice job
Awsome, love it !
Awesome video brother, very cool 😎!!! Thanks for sharing, take care and stay safe 😊
Another beautiful build is always their Tom say hi to Jackson for us keep up the good work have a good one and God bless my friend
Amazing work weathering and rusting came out great 😎
Nice work my friend. Came out looking great. Great weathering tutorial. Congrats to Sela
coool!
Absolutely great job Tom! You really have that weathering down! If you had room in the back seat I'd crowd in on your road trip. Well done sir. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍🔥
Outstanding job Tom!! Thanks for the ride
Nice build love it
Turned out great Tom
that is one bad arse citroen. amazing job onnthe rusting etc
Rusting and weathering cars is an art form that you excel at, Tom. Those Citroens are still on the roads over here. Well built cars. Great video with an evening coffee! ☕🍁👊
Great build!
Wow
Great to see your Imagination come to life! Very NICE build!
FANTASTIC build Tom! I love it! Great video!
Awesome stuff! For my widebody kits, I like to use Tamiya "Smooth Type" Epoxy Putty. Genuinely finishes smooth but takes 12-24 hours to dry.
Another beautiful build their Tom keep up the good work have a good one and God bless my friend
You had me at spinner car🤣😂. Great build as always. Keep scratching that build
You had an idea and brought it to life. I'd say that's a win!
Awesome job! Like the distressed look and the concept of the build 😎
wicked build for sure. the creativity and imagination that went into this is incredible
Awesome!
Outstanding job Tom!!! Thanks for the ride!! I use automotive body filler!!
Awesome build and result. ONly that "Thing" in the reat disturbs. For me it seems to be wa to big. That's not an imperial star destroyer....
AWESOMENESSSSSSS .👍👍👍👍 NICEEEEEE. Mike
Tom, that is one wild and crazy Flying Fish. I threw in the white towel right about when you cut the hood into two arms! The whole sleek and futuristic look suits this one perfectly. Thanks for kicking off my annual Summer Road Trip in style. 🍁☕🏆
