Blooper at the end is worth waiting for!

Flared hair, flared pants, flared fenders. it was the '70's man. Jimi remembers. hahaha sick paint and awesome vid as always. thank you! keep em coming.

@bridgetmurray1163 4 года назад

That is one sick paint job! Thank you for sharing, and for explaining the paint layering process too. I need to get some of that paint and figure out how to make some of my cars sparkle! Also, cute blooper at the end ha ha.

@rustyvideas8312 4 года назад

Awesome job. I've been painting vehicles for 30 years and I just learned some new stuff. 👍 that firebird was always one of my favorites as a kid.

@tomheckhaus7617 4 года назад

You ARE the Master of the Airbrush! I liked the wheels, in my day we raised the suspension hence lowering the wheels. Nowadays it seems making the wheels tuck up as far as they can go in the wheel-well making the car as low as it can go is the norm. I guess the rear wheel drive had a lot to do with it. I didn't like the flairs either. See ya Tom USA

@andyc3856 4 года назад

Cool paint job man! I'm feelin' it. I really like these old matchbox castings.

@randynovick7972 4 года назад

"Where's my car?" -- I just about fell off the couch. Great episode, and I like the color. I thought you'd get a more saturated red, but it almost appeared to have a kind of pleasing burgundy color. Very pleasing with all that sparkle and depth. Great stuff as always. Love your channel.

@raulbenitez3714 4 года назад

Great paint job 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Can wait for the quad cab build ‼️

@adamfeder7125 4 года назад

Dude that paint job came out totally badass!!! When you described what you were going for I knew it was going to be awesome and it came out even better than I imagined. Great job!

@brianartillery 4 года назад

You ought to get yourself a jar of stripper like Timerider. Over time, it starts to resemble one of the levels of hell, and it's rather pleasing to watch the car parts sinking into the foul goop. A bit like in 'Psycho', when Norman Bates pushes the car carrying the remains of Marion Crane into the swamp. Your finished Firebird is awesome. The colour and finish are just outrageously good, and it looks great sitting on those big ole' meats. Nice one.

@notdonaldst 3 года назад

@joeharkins7476 4 года назад

Perfect choice on the wheels and paint color. One of my favorites, outside of the Nitty Gritty Kittys.

@h2ofield 4 года назад

My suggestion would have been to 'halve' the front wheel wells...just size them down and add the appropriate size tires. Thanks for another entertaining video...and that paint combo is one best I've seen!

@chrisandrews5174 4 года назад

Love the colour and the rims .they go really well together. From plain blue to badass red.

@MrVolvobloke 4 года назад

Wow. If only matchbox had the enthusiasm you have ! What cars British children might have had . Still got one of these somewhere in the same condition as the project car ! had a good laugh at the end with that paper towel ! Thanks for posting !

Looks like jimmy had a wild weekend judging by the upside down picnic table

@charlescummings2205 4 года назад

That color is awesome! I had to write down the color he used because I might put it on my car. Especially the black undercoat with the silver and gold.

@Scotty_in_Ohio 4 года назад

I believe we all mostly seen the paint bubbling so if you do the soak and cut away it's okay... - Your health is more important than watching paint come off....

@charlesmclaughlin2281 4 года назад

Very true. Your health is more important.

@KrisH-kp9vx 4 года назад

Paint is brilliant! You are a master! In my humble opinion, I think you could have done something with the fender flares. Whether it be thinning them down or folding half wells. Your imagination is epic and a job well done!

@snadeau3651 Год назад

Love the Dremel mishap. Thanks for including it. 😂

@ihatelogincrap 4 года назад

Wheel wells look cool there, perfect for custom wide rims with aluminum tube extension and heat shrink tube tires !

Lol the end is great. Blubs for Jimmy

@wolftmfg 4 года назад

I love the casting and the way you gave it some paint love. It needs 70s racing wheels tho. Lots of meat (like the original wheels on this casting) and Firestone lettering. The color tint of the window icw the interior really complement your custom paintjob. Thanks for the video. Greetz, Wolf

@shortersdiecast4130 4 года назад

Beautiful color, love your videos. Keep up the good work.

@robhutton7823 4 года назад

This is my all time favourite matchbox car. I had one as a kid, and still have my original one now... although I have picked up a few others since then.

@damianmcadams4253 4 года назад

Love to hear you're doing another double cab truck your first video inspired me to do one of my own using two Ford M2 trucks, glad you're doing one with opening doors

@davidneilson3508 4 года назад

I agree those fender flares are ridiculous lol but hell man you made it work . Paint was dope and like glass . Another awesome outcome . Well done Sir 👍👍😊

The flares are proper for the early '70s Trans Am racing series.

Awesome result, can't wait for you to use the gold plating paint again! I've still got one of these somewhere from when I was a kid, the flares on it looked weird to me even 35+ years ago lol.

@wadehendryx7378 4 года назад

Hey, I watched your Chevelle today the one you painted blue. In 76 I had a 1972 Chevelle white on red white vinyl roof red car white interior. It was pretty nice. I was hoping you would have went that way but that's okay. I found you not too long ago and I'm still catching up I'm watching shows you did months ago. That's really too bad you couldn't do this full-time and actually make good money at it. You do a fantastic job I love watching your Channel. Keep it up. You got to watch her for life. Well as long as you do this.

@strawberryhellcat4738 4 года назад

Wow, you were right, the color is great with the yellow windows, and yep, those wheel wells are redonkulous. Maybe you can speed up the video of the new chemical's stripping process to still give us our fix. "Double, double - takes too long to bubble."

@themichaelvortex4784 4 года назад

I never liked that casting, but you made it a thing of beauty DR. Nice work! #YouCanNeverHaveTooManyBlubs 👍🏼🤘🏼😎

@mercoid 4 года назад

The Michael Vortex ... I’ve had a love/hate relationship with this casting since I was a kid. The stupid holes in the hood was always the big let down for me.

@novadiecastman5251 4 года назад

Diecast Resurrection , another great outcome, the paint came out awesome the wheels fit the car perfect. Awesome 👍

@wadehendryx7378 4 года назад

Hey, just a little idea. If you take an electric toothbrush and you take your sandpaper wrap it around the brushes attached it at the top that's easy to do you can drill a little hole and use a little press pin to hold it in. Those are ideal for sanding very small pieces I was watching your Red Baron video and like it would have been perfect for doing the helmet and such it's pretty cool works pretty good once you put one together you kind of work out the Kinks on holding the Sandpaper on but it works real well pretty cool.

Get some of the travel bottles designed for air travel and transfer your polish into them. That should help with the amounts applied to your projects since you should have more control of the application.

@jp2246 4 года назад

that windshield turned out really good considering what it looked like originally

@gjgeurts9372 4 года назад

Used to have one like this and played with it to death. Later they released a gold one based on this casting with spoilers and a Firebird sticker on the hood. When I spotted it in the toy shop, I hid it at the back of the rack so no one would buy it till I earned a few bucks the next week so I could buy it. This kind of muscle car shape imprint is impossible to shed even 40 years later.
