I can not thank you enough, Zac! it looks absolutely amazing! better than i could ever hope for! thank you for answering my plea for help! glad you had fun working with it! this AMX is gonna be one of my prized possessions. a center piece in my redline collection for sure! thank you so much!
Mate so what if you cut the wheels off and so what if you use a sharpie, if it works then why not. The car looks great and that is all that matters in the end. You turned a pigs ear into a silk purse, something people say can not be done.
I'm in no way interested nor do I foresee myself becoming interested in collecting matchbox cars. But I stumbled across these videos and have become obsessed with them. Thanks you for this great escape from the day to day.
Nice resto!!! However, as a carpainter I do need to point out that waterbased paints are FAR MORE dangerous than thinner based paints!!!! at the 3:40 mark, you said that the body can get rid of waterbased paints (fumes) more easily. That isn't correct: Since the human body consists of at least 75% water, the body recognises the waterbased paints as "it's own" part. So, the immune system doesn't spring into action against the harmful contents in the paint. So, I advice to wear gloves when you paint, wearing a respirator and use ventilation. For the respirator, NEVER use the carbon filters more than 40 hours after the package has been opened. Please do NOT feel like I'm criticising you; I just want to point ut the danger of using waterbased paint ;) Keep up the great work!
Thanks, David!! Will update in future videos. Probably the best practice is to always protect oneself from breathing any paint. Will try and pin your comment to the top.
Also, just piggy backing here, it DOESN'T irritate us that you do this that or the other thing ... we like watching you do it the way you want to do it! The people complaining about all of your methods (the people you keep addressing in your videos...) are the very-vocal tiny-minority. :)
What a load of crap! Water based acrylics a far LESS toxic than alcohol or thinner based acrylics! You only have to smell them to know this is true! The paint that children use in school in water based acrylic ffs! Nothing worse than a self proclaimed 'expert' that knows Jack shit..
it makes me so happy watching these videos seeing these great old cars that seem to be just about done living as they were being revitalized and given a face lift. i don't think refurbishing cars takes away the character, i think it adds character in that it was given more love and hard work than most other mass produced models.
I was one of the people that commented about cutting the wheels off, after watching probably most of your videos i see how it's the best thing for you to do, your cars look so clean they wouldn't look right with the original wheels. Your videos have inspired me to try and restore some of my matchbox adventure 2000 cars. Keep doing what you're doing!
Great job, I love how you explain clearly why you do something and why you don't. Answering the negative feedback is also very interesting. I enjoy hearing from someone who simply loves what they do and isn't too bothered if others don't like it...yet you are not so ego driven that you won't listen and even ask for advise from your viewers. Honestly, this channel is one of the best.
Thanks for this. I recently picked up about 80 original redlines from a friend and two of them were painted with model enamel. With the AMX and Mustang I was able to use a towel with goof off and got all the paint off without damaging what was left of the Green on the AMX and the Gold on the Mustang. They are far from perfect but will show well in my collection since I didn't have either of these. Thanks for the videos!
Wow this little beauty turned out great. I'm a sucker for the Spectra-flame colors. I remember the first time I played with Hotwheels and was astonished at the details of them. I thought then in the sixties that whoever made these really understood what a seven year old wanted.
I stumbled across your restoration vids about 3 weeks ago and have been transfixed ever since. This AMX custom is one of your best restorations I have seen thus far. Thank you for your intriguing and unique content.
I absolutely LOVE the custom AMX, it is my favorite redline of all time. I don't own one, but someday I hope to! Great restoration! one of the best yet! please upload more redline restorations as I love watching how you do them. I have been using some of your techniques on some of my custom cars. They seem to work really well, anyways, keep up the great work!
Awesome! You do an incredible job. Thank you for the history of how redlines were painted spectraflame back in the day, I always find that interesting 👍👍
How awesome is that !!! Seriously! Well done 👍 I really enjoyed watching you work! Very satisfying to see the end result. I would be thrilled if the car belonged to me 👏👏👏
That came out great! I like that you add in the little side notes about the do's and dont's, its great info fpr anyone about to start this hobby like myself. Also i think the sharpie is the way to go for the tail lights. Ive tried to paint tail lights on some of my n scale cars and i never liked the way it came out. So youve given me a new idea and ill have to revisit my train set to correct a bunch of tail lights. In any case, great job and thanks for sharing.
I think this is my favorite. In other restos you do, you do it a bit cheaper as they are yours and it hurts my OCD. This one you did perfectly. All the best to you and family, Cristian All the way from Romania.
Love your video's. I restore old pinball machines and its interesting how so many of these techniques carry over from one hobby to another. Thanks for posting these. Might give it a try sometime since I already have most of the required equipment.

That green paint job looks so good on that AMX. Great restoration and video as always.
I Agree
Honestly you're like the Bob Ross of hotwheels. So relaxing to watch. Keep the videos coming man!
*Best Comment Here (in my opinion ) Good One Jack !*

Classic....
you can put lipstick on a pig or you can destroy history but its still a toy car

People need to be warned about dangers of Dihidrogen Monoxide in water based paints
🔥Excellent restoration baremetal. I’m sure Jordan will cherish this piece for a loooong time. It looks great!👍🏽
yes I will! XD I've watched the restoration video about 20 times!
nah, nope really.
Jordan Tiegs no you didn't
It's just a toy car
It's just a toy car
Thank you for addressing the complaints you sometimes get on your videos. Your responses were very informative and interesting
I don't know why but I'm very satisfied with watching this dude fix model cars

There is something very cathartic watching these restorations. Such a neat hobby!
one of your best restorations!!
This could've been a lifelong hobby of mine. Watching these videos gives me an itch I need to scratch.
That nickel plating is a rare treat! Glad you took on the project. That looks incredible.
I enjoy these far more that I would've thought. I accidentally clicked on it and have just been binge watching these.

I don't collect cars and don't do restorations, but watching these videos is always entertaining to me.
Beautiful, just pure beauty

Wow. Absolutely brilliant restoration. You are surely the best when it comes to these restorations. Thanks for sharing!!!
I always get a relaxing and happy feeling watching your videos, good work and happy holidays.
Asmin Siza I usually take a shit while watching his videos.... It's relaxing lol
I saw a comment on one of his older videos that called him the Bob Ross of toy restoration, which sounds about right to me. :)
liar
Wow this little beauty turned out great. I'm a sucker for the Spectra-flame colors. I remember the first time I played with Hotwheels and was astonished at the details of them. I thought then in the sixties that whoever made these really understood what a seven year old wanted.

Excellent restoration and a beautiful paint job. Love that Spectra Flame green.
Awesome!...but I never thought about Hot Wheels until I found your hypnotic videos. They're wonderful. Keep 'em coming!
I stumbled across your restoration vids about 3 weeks ago and have been transfixed ever since. This AMX custom is one of your best restorations I have seen thus far. Thank you for your intriguing and unique content.

That's a beautiful restore. Thanks for sharing your tips with us.
I think this is perhaps your best resto yet. absolutely stunning
Your hard work and thoughtfulness really shows in the final product. It's impressive and inspiring.
This is a fantastic result! beautiful paint work, and I think the sharpie taillight looks excellent.
I've watched all of your videos and been enhanced through each one. You're an artist, my friend.
That turned out great. Nothing wrong with sharpies. I use em on the plastic kits I build
You did a great restoration job and your narration was spot on!
Always amazed by the quality of your work!

Wow this turned out gorgeous, amazing work!

I have so many hotwheels from the 80s that needs to be restored. This channel is amazing. I feel like trying it out.
Think about this some kid painted and played with this in 69
I can imagine the scene in 69' with the kids arms completely blue and his parents yelling at him with the AMX sitting next to him :)
Maybe I was in the summer too! "IN THE SUMMER OF 69
Pinche Pendejo Whatever, maybe now some kid get to paint it blue all over again! :)
