I can’t believe people here give you shit for not doing it their way. It’s your car, your channel. This one was exceptional. Great work as usual.

[@Kodaiva]

Who said that

[@OceanandStars1178]

Never before in the history of KZbin have so many people awaited the arrival of a piece of plastic from the post office! Seriously though, I agree it actually looks great without the rear bumper. Those decals are AMAZING and like always you have done an incredible job! Thanks Jon for sending these cars!

[@tyler3766]

First? Dicast res is the best. I don't even really car about the cars (even tho they're awesome af). Just enjoy his commentary!

[@maryshort7183]

This 74 year old great grandmother had a 1979 copper transfer and I wish I had it back. Great job on the trans!

[@stronglav9135]

Спасибо за ваш труд. Эти золотые руки могут делать только шедевры. С крупно масштабными моделями ролики мне нравятся. С меня лай и уважение к вам мастер.

[@SmashItUpFilms]

Nothing like singing a little twisted sister while you polish a fresh trans am! xD it turned out beautiful!!!

[@escape150]

You did an exceptional job on this 👍🏻👍🏻 looks fantastic. The position of the Phoenix bird looks better than the one ERTL did

[@da_ghoul9432]

"Just jam it in there, aggressively". Will do!

[@theratinaCage]

To clean clear plastic, I use 1000,2000,3000 grit followed by meguires plast-x. Works great for 100% clarity.

[@tomheckhaus7617]

I've always pronounced it as ER-TLE as in Turtle. As I've mentioned before 1:18 scale is easy to customize compared to 1:64. These 3 you've done are great, I hope you do more 1:18 in the future. Great Job! I would have painted the engine "Pontiac Blue", I not sure what color the Trans-Am engines were, all the early GTO's 389's & up were blue. I'm looking forward to the GTO John is sending you. I had a 1964 and a 1966, The 64 was a Le-Mans with the GTO option in Silver, the 66 was a 4 bbl version, in Burgendy. Regards Tom USA

[@hestheMaster]

Nice finish to it. Lot easier working the larger sized diecast cars!😍

[@dianamessenger6853]

Phew! Those were a lot of steps for the headlights. Also, for people who complain in the comments.... Unless they sign your checks from KZbin, take it with a grain of salt. You give quality content, so just keep doing what you're doing D.R.

[@kenwinston2245]

I remember when these were introduced... so beautiful. You've done justice to what was once crusty. Thank you!

[@Gappasaurus]

7:00 you got it 👍🏽 rhymes with “turtle” 🐢

[@robgsouth2293]

Great job. Your eye to detail on paint and decals is impressive. I truly enjoy watching all of your videos.

[@Little_Red_Riding_Hoodlum]

Super crisp and clean. So nice! 😍

[@brianball6670]

Very much worth the wait. That paint and decal job was awesome.

[@solitairesmith3553]

THIS IS PERFECT. your decals are GORGEOUS. Got memories in my brothers trans Am. You are absolutely right about the bumper. It looks great without it

[@tangohunter1548]

What a beauty! I think without the bumper would be cool😎 I have some 1:18 cars in storage, would like to send you one for yourself, and one you can do for me! Your work is BOSS bub!

[@whitetallon8784]

Awesome! I was wondering where this video was! Didn't know about the bumper... but I'm glad we got to see this! I love the 1:18 scale Sorry I wasn't chill waiting for this...but I think I missed the part where you were waiting for the bumper!

[@ovidio350]

Keep those sweet 1/18 resurrections coming!

[@morrismckinnon6047]

That bumper better hurry up, George is getting angry! "Shut up'n work, Boy!" xD

[@inthelionsden6335]

The placement of that scoop on the side looks correct.

[@darrellbedford9925]

Good build. The Screaming Chicken looks great.

[@lordmellis7135]

So relaxed. You just don't stress about anything. Love your videos

[@sidgreentherhymeofreason]

Good things come to those who wait. Excellent work sir

[@samueljohnstone3028]

Im really appreciating these 1 :18 cars you have worked your magic on , I will make these the scale I collect 👍

[@mikecochran2452]

Watching restores are so addictive!!! My problem though, I'm making silly sounds like you🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ScaleStreetGarage]

Mike Cochran i dont know what you mean....... blub blub blub blub... get out the way jimmy 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@hillbilly7292]

Love the build was waiting patiently for part 2 lol

[@jamesh5460]

I really like this build in white. Very cool.

[@MisterMsk]

Looking at the before on Part 1 to the finished product on this video. Kudos, man. Wow! Now that is a big change and looks amazing.

[@scottjh.7824]

Dub dub. Love it! You're the best...forget the bumper. Cover dem holes and call her done!

[@leee2818]

Came home from work to some fresh Diecast Resurrection. Thank God.

[@bopaintsminis]

Love your paint work. Best on YT. Not much else to say about that.

[@chargoldsmith5651]

Great job, love the paint and decals...... Look forward to you doing more 1:18s they are awesome.......

[@TheGearheadLounge]

Great rebuild! I'd say that it looks like you've been doing 18 scale cars for years!

[@davidneilson3508]

Knocked it out of the park . It don’t need no stinkin bumper lol 😝. Enjoyed seeing ‘‘this one wrapped up looks pimp.

[@ovidio350]

Amazing! Please do more 1:18 scale!

[@martindaredare]

Excellent , looks really smart in white. Nice work on the decals.

[@rowens4109]

Looks great. I think it looks right without the rear bumper. Clean.

[@pbrady187]

Worth the wait. Looks badass. The white and blue is very clean looking. Great job.

[@Ogma3bandcamp]

Again, only the highest of standards, exceptional quality. If I win the lottery I'm flying my MX5 over from Ireland for a respray.

[@zenunla]

Wow, incredible result there! Makes me want a white trans am for real!

[@zenunla]

...with a rear bumper of course. 😉

[@solsdiecastodyssey3143]

I've enjoyed everyone of your large scale resto's and this trans am is just the business! Great piece of work as usual.👍

[@mufflerman8455]

Awesome vid bro. Love the blue Phoenix on the white. Looks great

[@HammyTechnoid]

You really pimped this one... *Pimp Blubs* I'm sure you thought of this, but the idea crept in my blubby head that the bumper could have been negated with some well placed and shaped body putty. Then you could have had that sweet Vette rear you mentioned. Just blubbing out loud... Hey.. *GREAT JOB MAN!!!*

[@MrVolvobloke]

Beauty. I always said it looks better without a back bumper. Thanks for posting this was worth the wait.

[@malcolmbolton1473]

awesome work man,yes I agree you should try restoring a few more 1:18 scale me thinks,love these bigger scale,I have heaps in my collection,you have it all pretty much down pat now with your skills,keep up the great work,cheers

[@stabbyninja]

Looks exactly as i hoped it would. Nice job....cant wait to see the GTO project. Canada Post always sucks in the summer( i figure its due to vacation season).

[@RelatosDeLobisomem]

Just awesome!

[@darkside0914]

the scoops are in the right spot on a 2nd gen trans am

[@blownmouse]

The white is beautiful. Another perfect Resurrection!!

[@themichaelvortex4784]

Nice resto DR! I appreciate all your hard work every week. Thank you.👍🏼🤘🏼😎

[@boerharms2209]

Aww yeah!! That is so awesome! love the decals :D one of your best jobs to date, I reckon.

[@GDCFC1221]

Another beautiful piece of work. With your standard of paint finish you should change your name to Picarsso.

[@artmanson666]

Red interior would’ve looked very nice, but it came out pretty sweet, great job!

[@chriswunsch2672]

Fantastic looking T/A!! I had the honor of doing a real life '71 several years ago. White with blue.

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Absolutely awesome restoration, Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Mad9977]

ah finally the Trans Am back on track 😎👍 wow that looks really awesome, also without the bumper

[@robertsimmons3336]

The firebird emblem looks Pimp! I loved this one!!!

[@charger66611]

looks real clean with out the bumper, the white paint really made it stand out against the decals. Diecast game is on point

[@boerharms2209]

Looking forward to the GTO! A carousel orange Judge is one of my all time favourite cars

[@crimson4502]

Good Idea with the rims !

[@Tiger351]

Awesome job on the T/A! I don't know though, the video was missing something......let's see....oh yeah needs more Twisted Sister lol. Keep up the great work, loving these larger scale cars.

[@enriquemireles8947]

As a guy who you to replace those on real Trans Ams, I’d say you did a great job.

[@pflick13]

Looking good buddy. Restore on brother.

[@dragon320194]

That looks really awesome bro looks better without the bumper

[@Mr77Malibu]

Bumper or not,this custom refurbish build was worth the the wait.

[@amd6570]

Damn that hood decal turned out sweet

[@band1986]

Happy to see that finished and looking forward to the goat.

[@turbolivesinmyheart6328]

Hello It's pronounced "Errrrrr Tullll". I live like an hour and a half from there. Ertl. Not being a smart-mouth. Dyersville, Iowa. (Yes, Field of Dreams) They have a die-cast museum there.

[@novadiecastman5251]

Yeah don't hype it up , they don't have to much in their and charge quite a bit... what I miss is the outlet store , years ago they had cool diecast cars along with model kits , but now all baby stuff and a few Tractors if your into that..

[@karmalord]

Great vid. Would be cool if there was someone like you who could make the parts that were missing too. Maybe a 3D printer guy.

[@madmax0814]

That is all killer no filler! Turned out super-slick! 👍👍👍 is the Phoenix not actually a firebird...?

[@JohnM-zc4ju]

That came out awesome.Great job!

[@diversediversions]

Yes! Finally!

[@leebennett1369]

Beautiful work. Love it.. 😁😁😁👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😊😊😊

[@martintorres4865]

That Trans Am came out so nice and that Corvette with the candy apple red that was so sick I love it💓💓💓

[@thebaconbrotato]

This car turned out pimp AF. Worth the wait.

[@maximumbob350]

Looks amazing, as always. Although I am very slightly disappointed that you didn't go for a red air cleaner for the full Thunderbolt and Lightfoot look...

[@rjauto7215]

I really like this one the white bandit lol looks great fella

[@losingmyfavoritegame8752]

That looks like a TRANS AM. 😅 Nice work, making it look sharp!

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

That turned out beautiful!!

[@lalomartinez9876]

It would be awesome if u did restoration on 1 18 scale cars 👍n great video 👍👌

[@christianchaplain1305]

Fantastic job! 🙂👍🏼👌🏻

[@Tim-57]

Hey DR🙂 What a Beaut! I personally did not think I would like the white, however it is great. You said that you wish you owned this car...Well you do!....hahaha😜 Take care.

[@jono3645]

Hey old mate just wanted to let you know that skidmark arrived today, it was held up in customs. Mate i must say wow its beautiful , job well done 👍👍

[@DiecastResurrection]

Man! about time! Glad it arrived safely! Thats awesome :)

[@Phoenix-vv2to]

i'm happy about these phoenix decals ;)

[@shaunfelton2046]

Brilliant! I’ve also got a 1:18 car to send you. It’s muscle.

[@williamaviles2647]

This came out great. T/A are Great to drive and Beautiful but, I just got a NOVA SS with 396. 😉 I'll wait a year to paint. Hope you can do this just like this one. 👍

[@Derpderpdrrp]

Yay!

[@brittballard4030]

I love the trans am that came out awesome. I just started customizing hotwheels my friend sold 4 models and I redid them such long process but with it in the end I just cant figure out how to get the hazing out of the windshields.

[@martintorres4865]

Trans Am is looking pretty good so far👍

[@darkkiss7247]

Hell yeah man 😎
