Diecast custom: Hot Wheels vw Beetle pickup hotrod.

[@TypicalToyReviews]

I'm not a fan of the huge wheels in the back, but I can definitely appreciate the time and effort that went into this. The wood planks definitely bring the whole thing together!

[@OldCowa]

Thank you. The wheels are part of the hot rod stuff. 😉

[@dwaynedees9949]

That is NIIICCCEEE! Love all the custom, personal touches. Very unique and one of a kind!

[@60EFFIE]

Nice detail w/ mirrors, etc. All customs should be this detailed! Thanks!

[@OldCowa]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[@alvisjoubert664]

Amazing piece of art! I hope people appreciate this and if you were gonna sale it they pay you what is worth! 🙏 Great Job!💪

[@SavioScott]

Superb work! I would've joined the planks and sanded them before coloring and sticking them onto the vehicle

[@ericl1627]

Great idea. Like the video. Sent it to a friend that knows a guy in our area that did this to a real bug. He bought a bug and back roof was so bad sitting in a tree the front was sticking out he ended up cutting off the back made a bed area and made wood sides. I can say different and gets attention at car shows.

[@revzillo]

That is just awesome , the music is very therapeutic , great custom job 👍

[@OldCowa]

Thank you sir!!

[@jpc1147]

your paint skills are off the hook.

[@OldCowa]

Thanks!!

[@Fourwheeljive]

Well done! Cool version of this casting.

[@carlkwasnjuk4596]

VW's are my favorite. Very nice!

[@Fourwheeljive]

Well done sir! This VW pickup is a natural for a wood deck! Your custom came out great! I like everything about your video. Very professional! Subbed!

[@OldCowa]

Thank you very much!!

[@robgsouth2293]

Great video. Very interesting watching a talented left hand craft a beautiful VW hotrod!

[@OldCowa]

Thank you! Notice that i'm a lefty means you are one to, correct? 😉

[@robgsouth2293]

@@OldCowa ,actually my wife is a lefty, I'm just an ordinary right hander. I enjoy watching left handed folks work. It's like watching everything from a film negative. Lol everything is done in reverse to the observer's perspective. You are a very talented artist. Thanks for the video.

[@Lardybloke1]

Seen so many people painting the door hinges in chrome, they were always body colour on beetles, they are part of the door!

[@OldCowa]

Yes i know bit it's just to put in a bit more details...

[@CarDreamsinStyrene]

I build something similar in 1:24 Scale and have now and then the feeling my hands are too big for that Hobby.... my deep respect Sir... you do a great job

[@OldCowa]

Haha yeah it's all so little. But that makes it fun to do. Thanks for the compliment 👍

[@iriefixdiecasts6338]

I always love to see a good custom VW. I did the Kafer racer recently. Great job. Love the color and the wheels

[@OldCowa]

Thanks 😉👍

[@chopperbaldwin610]

Brotherman you just gave me some amazing inspiration to go ahead and start modifying Hot Wheels and others like it. Thank you I subbed you so I can watch your amazing creations come to life.

[@OldCowa]

Thanks for the comment. You sure need to try this stuff, it's lots of fun!

[@diecast164andmore9]

Pretty cool!! Definitely a better hotrod than the original look. 👍👍 only thing I really don't care for, nor understand why you did it, is the "planks" it would/did look awesome when it appeared to have a cover. Really great custom tho!! 👍👍

Excellent job on the mirrors, I would’ve at least wet sanded the clear, and blasted it with another coat.It would’ve came out like glass.

[@diecastcollector3034]

Nice custom vw. Your really skilled with the brush 👍

[@yanero0215]

Nice...I have two of those VW...one still in the blister and i want to keep like that...but now i found what to do with the open one:)

[@OldCowa]

Nice, make a beast from it! 😉

[@waltjackson9381]

Great job! The putty for the axle tubes is a great idea I will use myself. If I can offer a tip in return- get a jug of Muriatic acid and drop any of the chrome pieces you don't want to stay chrome in a container of that stuff. It will take a couple minutes, but strips them down to the base plastic color. Not my idea, I learned that from Baremetal customs. Another great customizer and restorer. You should check his channel and Diecast resurrection as well.

[@beltfed4624]

You can also use Ajax scrubbing powder and a wet toothbrush to remove chrome on plastic, that how I've always done it, and it scrubs off lightning fast (plus it's only $1).

[@samcha-rc7525]

This video is really good! Thank you! :)

[@MrJoeGarner]

While it is an extensive custom and looks great, would appreciate you having something to say while working. Just makes for a more interesting video.

[@OldCowa]

I know it would be more interesting, but my english is just not good enough to speak

[@MrJoeGarner]

Not important, I watch some channels where the person doing the restorations are done in Spanish. I don't mind and I'm sure it would be fine with the community.

Awesome! Turned out amazing....Can I have the fenders? Lol.... I'm new to the hobby and making videos, but I like making Frankensteins so them fenders would be awesome to have.... Even the rest of that bed.....

[@OldCowa]

That should be no problem but the shipping cost will be high i'm affraid...

[@OldCowa]

Buy some putty like milliput and styrene sheets. With these thing you can create a lot... 😉

[@mj420x]

@@OldCowa I was partially joking... I do love how they look tho. Pretty clean cuts too..... i use jbweld and tape on my first attempt a fenders. Waiting for decals to arrive before I reveal.

Great job have hit subscribe will be watching more of your videos. What brushes do you use for your detailing especially the tail lights very nicely done 👍🏻👌🏻

[@OldCowa]

Thanks. I use a very small pencil for details. If you need to paint dots like the tail light i recomand to get set of nail dotting tools. This way you will get always perfect dots
