[@TheSkullReviews]

Wow, you did a killer job on that, the nufinish stuff did work very well, makes it look brand new, good call on the plastic backer for the decals too, great work!!!

[@paulknappcollections]

Thanks brother

[@skunkworksstudios]

Cool. I always wondered if you could used drain pipe for a replacement! I thought about using a 4” PVC coated dryer vent duct. It looks very similar to the old connection! I love the big trapper platform! I need to dust mine off! 🤜🤛🍺

[@paulknappcollections]

The 4 inch pipe is a perfect fit. just need to figure out a way to attach it better. Thanks for watching.

My buddy Adam dd one of these also, over at G.I. Joe the Lost Chronicles, I have one to do but it is rough lots of missing parts. I love the idea of the downspout extender for the middle, I'll have to pick one up. Great video.

[@paulknappcollections]

Yes I saw his video as well, thanks for watching

This was the last GI Joe vehicle that I got for Christmas I remember it was quite different in the tv ads it was much more flexible

[@paulknappcollections]

Yes its very hard to find that flex tube still in good condition. Col vehicle though thanks for watching

[@paulknappcollections]

I never had one as a kid

[@g.i.joethelostchronicles6807]

I don't know why the Cotswold set doesn't include the cardboard seats. Luckily , mine where in great shape so I could reuse them.

[@paulknappcollections]

No idea and they won't return my call or email I sent.

[@g.i.joethelostchronicles6807]

@@paulknappcollections that's strange. I buy alot of stuff from those guys. Strange times we live in.

[@robertconyers9342]

Great job😂

[@paulknappcollections]

Always appreciated

[@eddieburton4583]

Hey Paul if you try to do some other stickers use a hair dryer or heat gun be very careful with the heat gun and you can try setting it out in the sun takes a while longer to take off that what my dad done to put decals on cars and also take them off warms them up makes the glue kind of sticky hopefully that'll help GI Joe Eddie over and out

[@paulknappcollections]

Thanks buddy

[@Raycheetah]

Huh. I never saw that set. Must've been just after my time with G.I. Joe. =0[.]o=

[@paulknappcollections]

Yes came out later closer to the Super Joe line. Thanks for watching.

[@paulknappcollections]

I never had it either.

[@eddieburton4583]

Hey Paul GI Joe Eddie here if you could have gotten the old stickers off you could make your own with a copy machine like I use at the library with our tear them they are not the same and no same for every year

[@eddieburton4583]
