Nice work! The only tip I can offer is what my pro-bro does to hide the lights glowing in the wheel wells: use black electrical tape formed into the shape of the wheel well. This requires you to put the wheels on last. The final result is great.
Lol. Loved this customisation. I agree with your preference of using smaller battery. Plus if I may suggest, if the hood can be raised, then maybe install battery there. The battery would become the engine which wold be a reality. Also if possible, maybe fit the sensor somewhere on the top portion. So that in stead of picking the car up and touching magnet from below, I would like to touch it from top. Well i bet its easier said than done. Here i am just commenting, i am 100% sure that I wont even be able to open the car. Great work. Its really amusing to watch you work on these.
That's brilliant. I had no idea you can buy lighting kits for Hot Wheels, they look super-cool. I'm gonna get some & give them a go. Thanks for showing this.
Mine too. 70-73 and 74 after they changed the nose and rear. I've always had a soft spot for 74 because they were a bit of a mongrel. The first year for this, the last year for that. It was basically the same as the 75-77 but just different enough to be a really unique year for the Camaro. The 78-81s were ok too. I was just starting to drive in 83-84, and got my license in late 84, and for us, because of their age, those were the quintessential Camaro. They were just the right age for hand me downs after the parents were done paying them off a couple years earlier. By the time 86-87 came around, a few of my friends had them and started modding them to not be mom and dad's car anymore. Not me though, it was several years later before I got one. My hand me down after my das was done with it, or so he thought, was a 77 Chrysler Newport 440. Shortly after that I got a 82 Plymouth Gran Fury Police Interceptor because Dad wanted his car back. Yep, I was the only kid in school that had a police car
Love your work. I'm wondering if it would be possible to light the dashboard by thinning out the backside of the dash, or removing the dials completely and placing a printed or drawn plastic or paper section with the instruments with an led behind so when you turn the lights on the dash lights up as well.
@@diogomarques1512 In this case; any man could say it you know which is, "I wish I was a kid again." That's if you listened and watched; the 1988 Rated PG-13, comedy movie called 'Big.'
Very well; I've also read from a deviant cartoon mural that has this message, 'my childhood is ruined.' This deviant cartoon mural depicts; the Super Mario Bros Princess Toad stool in bed with one man who masqueraded as King KOOPA.
Saw your comment that you were building this one from the kit review video. Turned out great, thought it seems like the rechargable battery kit would be much easier to work with
If I ever needed a hot wheel this is the one I'd want for sure. Although my favorite Camaro is the late 80s early 90s model (my first car). I somehow found this video in my feed.
Looks great! Too bad you couldn't get the rally wheels, I normally paint all the window trim too but Hot Wheels doesn't always cast them.... Still looks awesome! I've have to do it to mine, it's my favorite paint scheme on my favorite gen Camaro!
Great build! Do you ever sell any of your finished products? Also do you take requests builds? I'd like to see you do a Batmobile or some other movie car.
@WheelsNThangs : Did you do the second and refined version of this video with the other parts that you mentioned at the end of the video? I can’t wait to watch that bit too. I downloaded this video to try on my toy car. Can you make another video, one using a ‘92 BMW M3 by Hotwheels with small batteries, a switch & also MENTIONING the size of the lights that you use for Hotwheels / Matchbox scale cars?
I put lights in my custom Rc vehicles and something I do to keep the lights from shining back into the body is use black hot glue. Love the build keep up with the videos
Where did you find the magnetic switch, and how did you wire it? Did it just replace the micro-switch, or is there a special kit that has it? I checked through TechNickL Designs and didn't see it.
As someone who bought a -71 450Bhp Camaro at age 25, I approve of this. Sorry, I also just wanted to tell everyone I've got a sexy Camaro. I'm also quite broke.
Dude you're like the Bob Ross of customizing hot wheels!! I can't wait to do it now!!
Awesome work! The car has been literally brought to life! Wish I had the patience and skill to pull off such a masterpiece as this!
After a stressful work day, it is always relaxing and a pleasure to watch your videos.

As an avid fan of Hotwheels, I AM LOVING IT!!!!!!!! I'm glad I you came around in my suggestion :)
That's really sick, never thought of lights in a hot wheel....not since micro machines. Awesome Job
As a Hot Wheels custom builder and stalker ( LOL ) Love this build. I need to find these light kits.
Ha!
Yea. Need the light kit to
I can't find them either

Im new here and i really like this channel already 😍❤❤❤ keep up grandfather lol
EDIT:OMG HE LIKED MY COMMENT
Very cool! Not a bad looking mainline to begin with but you improved it 200%. So glad you cut the goofy roll bar out.
'77 TA would be phenomenal!
Love it. And you are right that a TA would have been so cool to see.
Very nice choice of body style. The lights, wow!
From far, the best custom i've seen thank you !
2nd gen Camaros are also my favorite as you can see from my profile pic. This car turned out fantastic!

Possibly but I don't have the patience for that!
That's my favorite camaro as well. Great job and love the color!!
Very cool! I made a custom out of a mainline ‘83 Chevy Silverado.
In the 90's you can get a Happy Meal with a light up Hot Wheels car. You got any? 🚗🚕🚓
Here in Portugal those cars arrived later, like in 2010, I have 2 of them
I never told you that I'm suffering profusely from a flashback when I, didn't leave any of my hot wheels toy cars at home.

I'm more of an innocent bystander; who just happened to find this, deviant cartoon mural by accident.
I never had seen a toy car with lights. Congratulations. A great job and a beautyfull car ;-)

I agree!
WheelsNThangs I think these kits can be used with fiber-optic, would be great to see what can be done given enough time
@@MrGmushnikov I was here before 😁
Custom came out really cool and also got some great tips from you! Thanks!
Very cool, Great idea ! Thanks for listing the links too !!!
Now that came out sweet man!! Loving the trans am z-28 with the lights! And the wheels are dope too!!!👊✌👌
'70 split bumper, nice taste!
Dualshock GT3 split bumper was 1970 and a half , changed mid year right?
If I ever needed a hot wheel this is the one I'd want for sure. Although my favorite Camaro is the late 80s early 90s model (my first car). I somehow found this video in my feed.

Thanks for the link for the wheels.

Wasn’t even looking for this kind of thing, just happened along... How flipping cool. Had no idea this was a “thing”. Very cool indeed!!
Thank you!
Use a 3/32 drill bit for the rivets. I promise it will leave the best result possible for taking these rivets off.
That is bad ass man love that casting IV never so it before .it sure was sharp when you got done thanks for sharing
I have this one. One of the better ones for sure. Ice work and thanks for sharing!
Phils Custom Wheels gives you a Badge..
Looks great! Too bad you couldn't get the rally wheels, I normally paint all the window trim too but Hot Wheels doesn't always cast them.... Still looks awesome! I've have to do it to mine, it's my favorite paint scheme on my favorite gen Camaro!
The nipper is actually a Horseshoe Nail Cutter. AKA, an End Nipper. Love your vids!
Mike C thank you!
Nice lights, where can i find them, they will look cool on Grand Nacional the boss against camaros, trans am n corvetts. Superb job
This guy is the Bob Ross of Hotwheels.!
Yes I’m new here too and I’m amazed at your work !!!
Great job! ! ! ! This is really cool! Thanks for the "How To Do" video! Man I have so many cars this would be great for doing that! Rock on!
Thank you!
Nicely done can I be cheeky and ask where you can buy the lighting kit from do you have a web link
Nice car bro. Are those BBS rims?
Nice and excellent work uncle
Great build! Do you ever sell any of your finished products? Also do you take requests builds? I'd like to see you do a Batmobile or some other movie car.
Awesome looking camaro! I gotta try this on some of my cars. Keep up the awesome work :)
Beautiful custom don't know how many times I've watched the video. Do you have a link to the LED lights or where can I buy them from
Thank you! I think the user is NickLDesigns on Instagram.
Fantastic job, I am officially addicted to your channel ;-)
Thank you!
Here’s an idea. Put a coil in there so induction from a pad will provide power to the led.
@WheelsNThangs : Did you do the second and refined version of this video with the other parts that you mentioned at the end of the video?

I love the wheels, looks great!
Dam thats sweet, also want that model car, great video
Great job! What kind of electrician you use, where you can buy it, I really liked that it is a magnetic switch!

I put lights in my custom Rc vehicles and something I do to keep the lights from shining back into the body is use black hot glue. Love the build keep up with the videos
The wheels are perfect on this car.
Increible! 😳😱
Greetings from Argentina!
Thank you!
that's awesome. feels like i wanna mod my viper too.
Respect from Russia. You are really talented Man
The wheels really set this car off.
Hi bro, Great video. I'm looking for screws but the link is not working. I can't find other similar ones. Do you have another link? Thanks
Great video. Quick questions, what did you use for the chrome paint? Does it come in gold or bronze? Thank you.
WOW cool buddy. Thanx for the video. 😉👍😁
Drilling out a circular battery section on the base could've added a quick battery change option and optimised reduction of the interior component....
My brain is blowing how do you make magnetic on/off I'm so confused but your car and your details is so cool I like I'm form Malaysia
Looks beautiful. Keep up the good work
Sweet. I liked the wheels.
Cool build! And yes, those wheel were totally made for TA!! Do u smell a bandit tribute car in the future?
:)
Nice build! I can't find anywhere that sells those lights though...
Search for TechNickL Designs
Parabéns pelo trabalho!
No Brasil não consegui esses LEDs

You sir just earn a well deserved subscription lol these videos so dope to watch!
That back flashing lights would be great for a police car
Love those wheels nice job
That’s my favourite year of camaro as well
I need one of those rotating pedistals for my car in the garage.
Dude youre the boss this is so awesome , i love your work
That is sharp. Great job.
That was a nice car to work with
Wooo this custom is awesome!
This should be done with the 70 chevelle ss wagon
Maybe it was already mentioned but perhaps a CR2016 battery/holder may fit?
Work of art
Awesome camaro buddy it turned out sweet!!!..nice work.. :)
From iraq lot of love 2 your art work 🌹
Nice work man, looks great! 🏁🏁👍
Got two of the tires on backwards. Those have a directional tread pattern. Doesn't really matter, just me being nit picky
Where did you find the magnetic switch, and how did you wire it? Did it just replace the micro-switch, or is there a special kit that has it? I checked through TechNickL Designs and didn't see it.
Beautiful! love the Bbs Rs wheels 😍😍😍
Great custom!
Ficou muito lindo parabéns pelo trabalho
You just made a Hybrid Hotwheels car! Electric Battery+Normal Engine
This is great stuff brother!!

Would you ever consider selling any of your customs or your restorations?
Sexy! I think we all dreamed of doing this when we were young ! 😂 I’m thinking about starting to do this. Great work my guy!
Wonderful work...awesome.

As someone who bought a -71 450Bhp Camaro at age 25, I approve of this.
Sorry, I also just wanted to tell everyone I've got a sexy Camaro.
I'm also quite broke.
