definitely one of the coolest castings they've made. you did an amazing job on it.
Neil, thank you very much!
Hey Brother Paul that was an epic restore wow. You choose some awesome cars to restore. I love the decals on top , made it look vintage and old school.
So cool restoration work paul
Looks awesome in original redlines
One of my favorites from HotWheels. I agree with the redlines on this one. I'm glad they make the reproduction decals for it. I wasn't sure if they did or not.
Looks great with the redlines.
Right?!?!?!?
Looks cool as a Redline, too.
Don't think you need to clear coat. 💥
Thanks Uri!
Very much like this one very sweet 😊 thanks Paul 😊 Lee
To quote the Outlaw Josey Wales, "ya gonna pull those pistols or whistle dixie?" . Great car to work on, I feel your pain on having to reorganize and clean my hobby desk, and it's great to see a new video from you. Awesome work here Paul. Thanks for video, excellent as usual!
I'm now gonna have to watch that again soon!
Well done! That came out great!
Thank you!
"have no fear Underdog is here" dig the shirt 👍 great to see you back in action! Car looks great as is 😎👍🔥💥🏁
I need an Underdog ring!
Awesome Underdog shirt!
Not an Apple product? Yay! Back to teenie tiny cars FTW! lol. Nice job Paul Yodel-dodle. It looks awesome 👍BTW... I need a new channel sticker. Mine got scratched up on my back bumper ☹
Paint stripper at Advanced Auto.
It's called aircraft paint stripper.
Great 👍 vibes
Great show!
Don't be mad Paul -
6:00 I watched it at 0.25x playback speed - right up to the aaarrrgh!
That is comedy gold!
Dixie Challenger looks great!
I can't blame you. From the outside looking in it is damn funny!
Nice work
Hello Paul, wellcome back to the diecasttheme. You choose a beautiful cqar to restore and the result looks awesome. Normaly i'm not a fan of such big flags and other decals but on this car it looks right. I would like to see this model as a Florida or California version.. without the flags .... Greetings from Germany to beautiful Las Vegas, Nevada/USA .
Udo, I love the idea of turning this into like a Challenger from a different State... I may have to do that!
There's no need to fear, Un-cle Paul is here!...I have to admit I have more than a slight aversion to the confederate flag because of the hate that goes with it, and I wasn't thrilled with MATTEL ripping off the General Lee design even as a kid when it first came out! But I love your work on it, and your choice not to clear coat it. I would've made the same choice if I was that smart to think of it. Thanks for showing me how to use the clamp I won during the Christmas Live feed! As to another suggestion what to do with another Dixie Challenger/Rodger Dodger/Bi-Focal casting, what about a "Union Champion" or a "General Grant"? As he battled Dyslexia (and was told drinking an onion in Whiskey would relieve the headaches [Chronic Migraines?] that went with it) and was at the bottom of his West Point class (Aced "Tactics and Strategy", Oral exam) I haven't seen a tribute car I liked with that livery or theme. Have fun with your toys! (All hail Queen Reggi 👑!)
Oooh, man it looks so cool with the redlines😎, and yeah I would buy blackwalls. Even if it would have done just leaving redline out from current product it would be cool. Thanks for sharing this video Paul the dixie challenger is awesome ✨ and if it was me doing my car, I would not clear coat it.
Right on
Great 👍 content
Restoration. a. Hot. Wheels. Dixie. Challenge
Glade u like it paul !! Yes it take a bit to get use to !!! I leave the base on the body an drill it out !! I'll send u a video in messagor
Thanks. Now I don't need to worry about drilling into my hand!
Oh wow, BIG BUMMER 😞! Damn! Well good deal you got it out! What a bummer about the tap bit though!
Fortunately I have backup taps on hand!
@@pauly7218 - I kinda thought about that after I had already said something, I wrote too soon. Haha! Anywho, good deal buddy!
#68 👍 up Paul! Great build looks great thanks for sharing! Watching from NW Arkansas WooooooPIGSoooie
The next video will be out Monday!
Is there anybody that can take a plastic base and make a metal one for a cheap price? If you had a set of metal molds you could supply bases for lots of similar cars.
👍🏻🔥🤘🏻
Why yours don't have the Confederate flag?
Just mixing it up Chris! I hope you liked it!
@@pauly7218 I actually did, thank you.
