Build a truck you owned challenge w/ RD Custom Diecast

[@DiecastResurrection]

Hello my friends! Here is my submission for the challenge with RD Custom Diecast. I already had a look at Rodney's Truck and dang I can't compete with NOS and a blower! Make sure you go have a look and say Hi for me! Hope your weekend is going swell. I've upgraded the coat counter a bit, its a work in progress though (comments). Go check out Rodney's Video here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/n52kmJh8ZpWKfZo

Your model's paint looks better than on the real truck.

[@josephcorriveau9113]

♥️

[@CopperOSC]

I like the way you paint what I would like to ask is what type of paint do you use for a base for the paint to stick

[@stephenmoncrieff2056]

Howdy from a fellow Albertan!!

[@t.j.lemaster8653]

All of a sudden my early teens came rushing back to me all that was missing was some Bon Jovi or Skid Row(18 and life) playing in the background... 😆 Awesome build Austin !

[@raeishimura]

Haha, as soon as I saw Skid Row I was thinking that song and Youth Gone Wild. Rock on my man, rock on

[@Lahire-s7l]

Super cool custom top taf😊

[@dave499]

Dude. Blast from the past! Love it!

[@neilpatrickhairless]

LOL "mulletizing" - that's exactly what that rear window fairing does. I think I remember them being called "razorbacks" also. I live in the Southeast of US so these trucks were everywhere you looked when I was a kid, set up very similarly to this 🤘🏻

[@jackmiller8763]

Got love those ol square bodies. Looks awesome

[@karlkovach8647]

Very, very cool!! Beautiful color.

[@tonyneises5195]

Very sweet, my high school buddy had an 80 or 81 that looked just like that, except it had the burgundy paint job also.

[@raeishimura]

I think it's almost like a dream to own a miniature version of a car you own that means a lot to you. I have a '71 AMC Javelin, and it's full restored and going into the body shop for paint and final bodywork in about a week. I found a Johnny Thunder diecast that is the exact car, a 71 Javelin in the same colors mine is gonna be, high gloss black with a white T-stripe on the hood. It just makes me happy to think of a day I can sit at my desk, look at that car, then walk out the front door and get in the real deal and go for a drive.

[@rdcustomdiecast]

Amazing job love that candy paint. When I get home I will link back to your video. Awesome challenge thank you for doing this with me I really appreciate it.

[@DiecastResurrection]

It was fun Rodney I haven't done a challenge like this in ages! We'll do another one soon but crazier 🤣

[@rdcustomdiecast]

@@DiecastResurrection awesome it was fun for sure

[@gilmatin8185]

Looks Awesome...reminds me of early 90s narco life trucks in Southern California.

[@fattonysgarage67]

Man this square body 86 takes me back to high school days. Love the paint and the 80's vibe with the visor and razor back

[@jrsdiecastcars1978]

Outstanding work you are a true artists thank you for sharing

[@NitrousDiecast]

Very good paint! 😁👍🏻

[@Weapon_X_Wolverine]

Fun! I loved the backstory as the build went along.

[@Michael_Miller508]

I hope all is well. I just found your channel, hopefully you still post content

[@danrussell3439]

The end result is amazing.

[@RandyCivilized]

I really like the new paint booth overlay

[@bigsid3011]

Sweet ride down memory lane for you and another trucktastic overhaulin for us.

[@robbyclower9223]

I've restored around 20 cars and did pretty good, what you do is amazing, the paint jobs you do are over the top, love your videos.

[@shellygenter8585]

My 1st car was 73 Mercury's Comet. "The Blue Bomb". Had no floor boards or brakes or a dashboard you could use at night. (Cue a toggle switch). My boyfriend got her brakes and then sheet metal and tarred the floor boards. Had a piece of industrial bar for a bumper, a passenger door that you had to lift to close and the best damn Kraco stereo I could buy at the time. I miss her.

[@Leader460]

Roll pans are very popular still,❤ your work and channel 👍✌

[@johnrodriguez489]

Your Bad Ass ! Can't wait for my first one .

[@bobp5356]

Beautiful job. I really like that Createx paint. Might have to give it a try.

[@code.7778]

Another awesome video, love that there's a story to go along with the build. There's maybe only 3 or 4 channels that I get pumped for every single upload, and yours is definitely one of them. Keep up the great work!

[@capedwonder2833]

I went over to have a look at his video. I like yours better. Not only that but your filming and light etc is better. You win boss.👍

[@garetkonigsfeld2]

I you win I don't see how he can do better. But I'll watch and see. Good job thanks for sharing 👍.

[@2nd_a_dad4791]

“Mullet kit.” That’s perfect. Lol.

[@luissilvia8180]

So far my favorite build. Reminds me of trucks back in mexico with the razor back, lund visor and the slotted mags.

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

The work and amount of time you put into it , is amazing . Great work . OMG !!! The Paint WOW . SOOOOOOOOOOOOO KOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL.

[@JorgeLDiaz]

Man, that color came out beautiful.

[@subhumann]

truck turned out great! love the colour! roll pans are still popular... almost as popular as soup. I like soup

[@neilcummings9939]

dang that paint job is sweet. the old square bodies were the best. I don't think bc had the inspection thing unless it comes from outta province or country

[@keithzatkalik5805]

Beautiful job

[@solitairesmith3553]

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING LOVE THE CANDY PAINTS!!!

[@jerrybailey5797]

Candy apple red Li'l Red Wagon , your truck could've been just perfect if it had passed the test Austin and if it was just like your model here ... maybe one day you'll find another like it or yiu could customise yourself 😉 👍

[@DeltaLimaDelta]

1:56 nice truck 🤣☠️

[@jamesoldaker2434]

My God is miss the late 80s and all of the 90s gas was cheap, the vehicles were sweet, and the music was the soundtrack to my destruction. Great build bro.

[@johnkaiser8410]

Good looking truck, well done!

[@michaelhughes3302]

Lund Racerback cab fairing. Holy s#it batman, you are bringing me way back. In the late nineties I was working for Van and Truck World... Yep, there was such a thing in Mississauga Ontario. Those were the Fast and the Furious days where "tastefully done" was not an option. Cricky!

[@PacosDiecastGarage]

Great build and the details are super awesome! Thanks for sharing

[@starboy71]

Great video. I love when you get into your voices. I tune in just to hear ya talk about what you do. What you do is great work. Very entertaining and informative. I’ve learned about using styrene for other toy fabrication from watching your content. Thanks!

[@mykeg2401]

Dude same. I just wanna hang out with him and drink some beers 🍻.

[@joeholloway1386]

Nice build, details and paint job 👍👍

[@charlesgiannuzzi5438]

Awesome truck I had one that color when I was in my twenty

[@darrellbedford4857]

Great looking truck. Interesting story on the truck. That story bumps this video to the top the heap. Keep up the great work. Also lets usknow when you have your mailbox set up.

[@Gearhead-en8dz]

Lund kits always looked good on the square bodies and OBS's. IMO

[@martyworley5427]

I’m loving this truck very nice!

[@TheBigO-k6g]

How are you doing? How's the job going? Hope things are all good for you and your family. We miss the absolutely beautiful work you used to do on these die-cast cars. Hope Jimmy is good too. Blub Blub Blub . . .

[@elitt2525]

Always love the uploads 👍

[@DiecastResurrection]

Thanks for watching bro!

[@josephcorriveau9113]

Hello nice job on that truck great job today keep up the good work😁👍👋

[@GokhanArc]

How long do you have to wait between breaks for each coat? Are the times for paint and polish the same?

[@amd6570]

Roll Pans definitely still cool 🍻

[@JaiiClarkee]

yes rolepans are cool! cant wait to get one on my 96 chev!

[@lsfd208]

We still have the bargain finder in the states too

[@bradmuehlenbein]

1:54 HAHAHAHA MY MAAN!!!

[@danielkemp4801]

I think the roll-pan and other modifications are still cool, as long as they are not over-done. Ex: a 1964 Chevy Impala with "26" wheels, I don't like it. Just my opinion.

[@6stringgunner511]

Darn nice truck!!! I like it!!!

[@calibre50customs12]

That is sharp, always enjoy watching your videos

[@ForPetesake552]

Looks really good.

[@vinnie379l4]

Pretty sure that’s a maisto casting not a m2 looking pretty sweet though 🤙

[@xXPARIAHXx902]

Love getting off work and seeing a new video just after completely a weekly Facebook custom challenge did a fake taxi 56 Ford delivery van with blown motor and opening hood

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Hello again very nice work as always love it looks very sweet my truck just like it is a 87 Dodge 4+4 Lee

[@DiecastResurrection]

Nice to see you Lee! thanks!

[@ledbyonme2064]

I would have filled in the gap on the visor there with bar lights one on each side the other than that was nice it was a good job I like to see more of that kind of work when you do when you add on.

[@gregmoorhead365]

I like it. Deep red is great

[@chriscargle2639]

Makes me miss my 82 k10 4x4 on 4inch lift and 33s

[@DiecastResurrection]

Damn right! I had an 80 4x4 with 4" lift leafs on 33s.

[@frankhays8221]

Nice job buddy looks awesome

[@rcoutdoors8176]

That makes me miss my 1970short bed Chevy box truck

[@zeldadiecastracing]

Awesome work bro,nice ,love it

[@lotharrenz4621]

looks great, love the shimmering red. :) and detailed interior, too! but why don't we get to see the engine bay? :) my first car was a 1977 Ford Taunus Wagon, signal green with green interior. lasted me 13 years; thrashed it because neglect and me heading for older models. though there wasn't that much to fix to begin with. I should have kept it.

[@mortenhenningsen940]

Boom. 80's rock music activated. Great job on that one. Nice collour choice. Mabye you need to get a sqarebody to drive around town with,to relive the dream you once had? Hej då

[@DiecastResurrection]

Bro I am currently living the mullet life pimping around in a 97 Tahoe with a visor lol

[@yourfriend9048]

NO WAY! another 'Berta Boy!!! what area code bud?

[@rudimoons554]

👍 Thx 🇧🇪.

[@Death_tous_all]

truck ended up looking great , you should 3d print a few more of them and other 3d printed accessorys youve done in the past. ive seen alot of people selling other 3d printed stuff on ebay. some of the odds and ends youve made would prob sell decent there as alot isnt on there either way keep up the great work

[@TheFrogfeeder]

I’m late to the show, just started my very first custom truck, a Greenlight country road d100 into my 67 w100 flatbed. And this comment just caught my eye because I just ordered a bunch of 3d 1:64 accessories off eBay. There’s not a ton of it, but just enough, and some guys are willing to work from pics and make custom stuff. I really wish someone would make leaf springs and shocks and stuff, at least I ain t found it yet if they do

[@Death_tous_all]

@@TheFrogfeeder there was one floating around on ebay that did it but it was a frame springs shocks and a set of tires/rims but it was hit and miss what year/styles he would do it in. most of his work was bigger scale typically tho so had to search his work ill look to see if it was what u needed. ill have to see if i saved the seller or if hes even active now, also awesome to hear a few others are starting up best of luck on the truck trucks in the future! alot of the time people chop up the green light monster trucks for a higher stance, and swap out tires and such, or they build up the axles with a putty and add a plastic or metal piece to slide the axles thru to make the higher stances by what ive seen if they dont go the chopping up of another truck

[@DavidAllen-i5g]

fantastic, great, smooooth, AAAAA+++++!!!!!!

[@bigbuckoramma]

Sport Trucks...and...STUFF.

[@jameskolb1942]

Roll pans will always be cool buddy

[@jp2246]

[@Guitarrockstar5683]

Nice job I miss my 86 F150

[@ericgamming5588]

AYO Alberta love it bro. Hello from Calgary

[@MrZlooze]

[@nethalus]

Im curremtlu making relicas in 1/43 of my car and van from 1998, memories!

[@Mr._Zachtastic]

What scale is that 59 Chevy convertible?

[@Anglemyerrider57]

My first truck is going to be a 89 Chevy. I wish it was 1 year older.

[@radioactivegaming9447]

Super cool

[@dogeispro3644]

Yeah I think the roll-pans are nice because I own a 1987 Silverado with a roll pan so yeah.

[@Macho1213]

[@bengreenhotwheelsandvideos9805]

Nice job man

[@riflemanism]

[@needfoolthings]

Sunset Magenta has no magenta in it, it seems.

[@alkinkade]

Awesomeness

[@calpitodoesstuff5566]

Yes! Finally a Squarebody! How do I go about joining your Discord?

[@TMarotti3366]

Roll pans are still cool

[@troyyarbrough]

I'm guessing "written off" means the same thing as "salvage title" in the US.

[@tdog-jy1pp]

Wish i could find a diecast or scale model of my truck(2000 dakota) that wasnt overly expensive

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

Nice! Too bad about the title scam on the original truck.

[@MetrohMan]

Cab you attempt a custom wood bed at some point?
