looking good in red, yes? ;) that pink could have been a colour-change paint, I seem to remember seeing some in really funky colours. but the pigments eventually die from too much sunlight. not sure about the wheels, but to me the more filigreed, the better. I wonder if replacement tyres for slotcars (AFX, older Carrera 160, and the like) would fit those rims? might be too thick, though. I don't know much more about MC Toys, only that they got rebranded to Maisto eventually, and have had some more rebrandings since then, but with different wheels. I suspect that they started out casting for Matchbox before the production got moved again, and then came up with their own line of models. it might fall into the same time when MB lost all moving parts, come to think of it...
The Ferrari 250 GTO is the perfect blend of elegance and aggression. 😍 That's one of your best customs Jason, the chrome highlights really make it pop. Personally I prefer the Diecast Dreams wheels.
I think the Diecast Dreams fill the wheel well arch better. I am very impressed with how good this model looks after your restored it. You have truly transformed this from a toy to a true replica. Thanks for sharing this.
That casting is really nice….so many cool little things to detail. You detailed them well and it elevated the quality of this car about 1000% 😁. Also, I liked both sets of wheels. If pressed, I would choose the Diecast Dreams over the One 64, but only slightly.
Another great restoration is always there my friend I prefer the second set of wheels it looks much better have a good one and God bless my friend say hi to your dad for us
Maisto and Yatming: Great castings, mediocre everything else. Perfect for customs. This came out wonderful! A shame most modern Maisto models have no interiors and solid black windows. And Yatming doesn't even do 1/64 stuff anymore.
That is a stunning transformation.

That's some top-shelf detailing job!

Congrats Jason,
You beat me as I am restoring the same model, mine is primed at the moment 😊
Beautiful work on the GTO. I like the Diecast Dreams wheels.
Thank you for the video.
Beautiful work just wish the wire wheels looked chrome
Great comparison video. Would like to see more of these!
Love the detailing you’ve done on this. Makes me want to pull mine resto apart and add a few more 😎
Love the slightly larger wheels - could lower it a touch, too? Great job.
The second set looks better. Great build.
1st set of wheel
Great video as always.. I prefer the first set of wheels, creative 64 personally..
Another great restoration is always there my friend I prefer the second set of wheels it looks much better have a good one and God bless my friend say hi to your dad for us
Très belle restauration!
Beau travail réalisé sur cette petite Ferrari, le détail est là et la passion aussi visiblement! 🙂👍
Love lt detailing and commentary 👍 Die cast dreams wheels for me

Great job 👍🏻
Nice restoration ,details and paint job 👌 👍
I like the new color and details. Good job. Congratulations
Very nice!
Larger tires look better, leave less space in the wheelwells. Nice resto.
Looks like a million dollars, Jason! or rather, 70.
I like the Diecast Dreams Wheels better. Not even close, actually.
Dorcas dream wheels are a better scale. Colour and trim are great.
Unico grande amore ❤
🤗👍👌👏
Full watch and share .
Always great pictures, of real cars
Tires 🛞 are cool 😎.
Your finish is amazing.
SOO KOOOOLLLL
