    Hands down my favorite restoration channel. Pretty much neck-and-neck with BareMetalHW, but the extra humor here is the edge 🙂

      Yes i agree the humor, with fun .... blub blub blub! Can’t get enough.. we all should do something fun like this and be a kid for a while ! Dang world would be a better place man !!👍🏽

      Yeah I like the sense of humor here too. Great channel, lots of cool rides. Never cared for this car though, but nice job nonetheless.

    I think it looks better without the black roof - but I'm not a purist at all.
    Also I'm pretty sure Jimmy's new ride is a color-change and I'm pretty sure I had one just like it. Too friggin' cool.
    Keep up the good work, dude! Another great resto!!

    Aqua is a great choice. Nice quick resto. I'm up to 13 of the sweet 16 and many are in rough shape. Building my set so I can try my hand at restoring them with inspiration and wisdom from your videos. Thanks!!

    Excellent resto as always. As for people crying about replacing the factory wheels it's your car to do as you please but mostly it looks a whole lot better with new wheels. That's all that matter to me when I attempt a restoration or custom. I have not done any vintage redlines but have done a few late 70's and 80's models and hey if a set of Maisto F1 wheels fit on a 1977 Hot Wheels Monte Carlo Stocker than so be it!...LOL!

  • @deepjunkgarage
    @deepjunkgarage 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the history aspect of a factory correct restoration (and a lesson on names python vs cheetah).....but..... the aqua finish and new wheels look perfect .... with or without the black top on this one. LOL ! 🍻 well done !

    Another great job. The car looks amazing but I have to say I kinda liked it in black. If it was done right it would be cool, Or what if you did a purple undercoat with a black top coat to give it a full colored look. Anyway keep up the good work.

    Also my favorite HW color on another beautiful resto.
    Helpful hint with those fat-tipped paint pens like your chrome marker...extract some of the paint into a little cup and use a toothpick or a fine point paintbrush...but you probably already do that.
    Anyway, major props!

    If zinc coating oxidizes under spectraflame paint, don't you have to zinc plate it again? How do make drilling the posts look so easy? Are you using a 1/16" drill bit. I have used 1/16" drill bits, but it makes the post walls so thin that when you tap them the frequently break.
