Nice resto Jason. Turned out excellent. Beautiful finish. Never seen one before. When lone star were good, they were top of their game. As you mentioned a nice easy restoration. Keep er lit ya boy ye.
A great restoration of an early Japanese sports car. Personally I preferred the blue before it was sprayed over again but understand that you were going for as close to original than a custom.
nice casting, better than the Siku one, which looks too narrow and short. Siku tended to make amends in terms of size sometimes. love the deep red, it's almost like piano paint. only red instead of black... Yamaha makes pianos, too, so it fits. ^^
I know this is a resto and it has turned out looking super - but perhaps pick out the rear lights in red and orange to break up the rear end? Or do a resto mod on another in a lighter metallic colour and do the details on that one 🙂
I’m glad you mentioned that it costarred with Sean Connery in You only live twice…. Only, when it appeared, it was topless😅 Maybe you could make a white convertible next time….
I have not looked at your latest resto for a while. These lone star flyers are some of my favourite models. Where did you find that casting I find that these are extremely hard to find. Nice resto I have one that someone finished in blue and that looks great.
I saw this casting pop up on eBay some time back. They don’t appear very often so it was certainly a bit of luck. Definitely one of Lone Star’s best, especially if compared to Siku’s equivalent.
I think that turned out as one of your better paint jobs. A little dark but very rich looking. Well done.
You always "knock it out of the park" man!

Great job Jason 👍

One of the best looking Japanese vehicles...and a clip with a great history of the car...and greater restoration.
Awesome clip my friend 😊👍
Interesting history, Jason. Realise you wanted to match the original purple hue, but I rather like that clear blue more; it's really nice.
Looks great Jason!!! Great casting from a company that the more I see the more I like. Love the color, interior and glass cleaned up nicely.
Nice restoration, details and paint job 👌 👍

You should modify one of those. I think a new set of wheels would look great. Nice job
Nice restoration on the Toyota 2000 GT Jason , looks good, though l think the blue colour would looked very nice 👍
🤗👍👌 very interesting video and a brilliant job! Thank You for sharing 👏

Interesting model build , I'm not sure about the colour.
The number of comments on these diecast rescues is starting to drop. People are losing interest.
