    You win the build off, definitely more attention to detail.

      @@C.CUMM1NGS I don't completely agree, because they both strip back to bare metal, so effectively a blank canvass, it's the details that make it.

      Both fantastic builds, especially when you consider the snotbox Danny started with 😮 Well done guys, may have to have a go myself since you make it look so easy....

    • @connierosario9474
      @connierosario9474 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah, but yours was a total disaster at the start. Totaled windscreen, gobs of paint and dust, rivets not screws. You did really well with what you had to work with.

      @EvilRedjack 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @lonewolf6364

    Whilst I like this build, Danny definitely had a tougher/more damaged/worn/aged car to work with.

    That car looks like it came out of Pull-A-Part: a local junk yard in the US where I reside. The car is just a shell stripped of wheels and with rust in place of paint. The glass is always there since at all the junk yards I've seen the glass is always there unless it was broken in an accident.

    Loved the RS as a kid,
    I always said my first car would be one of them.
    I actually had to settle for an N Reg 1.3 L. (KCX 912N)
    I did have Rostyles, quarter bumpers and a vinyl roof though!
    And so many brake lights that when you hit the anchors the drain in power alone slowed you down!!
    Oh and a bloody good video mate.

    @siccmade425 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm gonna say, your paint, and decal detail is a 10. Danny did his best, and it was good (working with a bigger mess), but your additional attention to detail, was something to aspire to.

    That turned out beautiful! I really like the effort you put into the interior. It adds a ton more realism. I also really appreciated the time you spent on the number plates.
    To me, the wheels you chose look like the style that Matchbox developed and began using say, 10 years ago. 2007 or 2008? I remember the wheels becoming better and more realistic around that date range.he number plates.

  • @kronos6948
    @kronos6948 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just a tip...that "white" under the numbers is called "silvering", and usually happens when you're putting decals over a not so glossy surface. If you want to avoid that in the future, clear coat your vehicle or use gloss paint (tamiya usually doesn't come out that shiny out of an airbrush in my experience) and it should lay down nicely. Then clear coat over the top again to seal them in. Nice work over all!! And those wheels look like current Hot Wheels tires.

  • @diecastdungeon8970
    @diecastdungeon8970 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job with what you started from.
    Like the light blue color on the Escort Rally car. Good detail. Not crazy about the mud guards, but they are realistic.

  • @terribelbliss9646
    @terribelbliss9646 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    @HealthThroughNutrition 5 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Just watched both builds and a have to say that yours is the better of the two in my opinion, Sorry Danny but it was just more detailed and although diamond white was a really common colour with old Ford's I think the blue on this one just sets the older period feel to it.
    Both are really nice restorations but this one pips it for me.
    Great videos and builds to both of you.

    • @lonewolf6364
      @lonewolf6364 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gods Country Bumpkin whilst I like this build, Danny definitely had a tougher/more damaged/worn/aged car to work with.

      Maybe, either way I enjoyed both.
