[@ericmcginnis2097]

Firebird looks great! I know up super close you might see some sort of defect but in this vidio it looked fantastic. Also this car is how old? It looks great my friend! Thanks for sharing and I like so many others welcome more restoration vidios!

[@astrogoodvibes6164]

@@myavo Big Daddy Ed Roth and Ed Newton were serious influences in my life too. Such iconic toonie giants, cheers mate and tanks for the cool comment.

[@jonathancroft828]

Awesome as always and great art too ♥️

[@MaxiSkaTaxi]

Is there anyway to contact you?

[@wayneridge5835]

I knew there was another reason why I like your videos....You are the Bob Ross of this stuff....Happy little trees😄

[@David-q3n3o]

Very cool pictures and car

[@JamesKautz]

I don't know if my favorite thing about your videos is your craftsmanship or your commentary. Actually it's I do... it's your commentary. Keep being you.

[@DiecastResurrection]

Thanks James!

[@awoodworker]

One of the best ones yet. Looks great.

[@mach1mustang1971]

one of the best looking ones I've seen. simple and classic.

[@Derpderpdrrp]

Yeah timmy, hush them gums, he'll get to it when he's damn well good and ready

[@davemuckeye1516]

"Battle scars"... apt definition for well-loved toys...

[@garyslentzii2796]

I absolutely love the "Nitty Gritty Kitty" Cougar logo, very gifted artist, l would make a huge sign in my man cave, super cool. My 68 Cougar was my favorite car l ever had, sequential tail lights were awesome.

[@pops55650]

That subscriber artwork.. you are right, he is amazing. I am glad someone is continuing that hot rod rat fink art style my dad and I remember so well

[@diecastcollector3034]

I picked blue for the vette and was disappointed blue didn't get picked but now its out of my system. That fire bird looks awesome in windex blue, good work and don't stop the humor. This video was a great start to my day. Thanks

[@dixonmcklacker6210]

What a great build. I'm amazed how it turned out. And entertainment + as always. Thanks.

[@50goingon15]

Just came back to this video and WOW! You have really changed things up from when this was made. Interesting to compare your older vids against the current stuff.

[@turbolivesinmyheart6328]

If you notice on Hot Wheels "wheels", they taper off towards the outside of the wheel. Toward the inside of the wheel is a small "bead-like" feature that is the only part that touches the track. That gave the cars so much of their speed, for less friction going down the track.

[@pimpmydiecastsdiecastandto3176]

correct and simple science the less area that touches the track equals less drag and friction equals more speed ,,, the rears are wide because they drive and put power down so that's beneficial .. note that on jet powered cars for land speed records all wheels are super skinny and often not rubber but solid metal to get rid of the drag of pneumatic rubber tyres........on hotwheels cars they'd have been faster with skinnys all round as no drive went through the wheels but they stayed true to the real cars of the day

[@twoblacklabs904]

Another fantastic Redline restoration. From what you started with, the end result is a night and day difference. And RockitRod’s art is just up my alley...I collect Ed “Big Daddy” Roth art lithos and posters, t-shirts and anything Rat Fink...great stuff, as I am a child of that era, and vintage Hot Wheels when they were the hottest new toys to carry around and have a few in my lunchbox at school....Anyway, thanks for the video series...I’m always looking forward to the next one....

[@donaldswink6259]

Two Black Labs, yah, I was a child when hotwheels came out, I really liked the heavyweights. Still have some old redlines in our basement.

[@wallyworld2174]

Kip i'm so glad you quit cage fighting and found something you are very gifted at. Love these concourse worthy restorations. Tell Lafawnda hi for me, Rico

[@boerharms2209]

the old Firebird is a great casting! One of the best redlines in my opinion.. you put it back to the way it should.. awesome resto, love the color!

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

I am glad i found your youtube channel! It makes me happy to watch you restore these old cars! I am very sad to say that i had to sell all of my diecast cars in 2020 when i lost my job due to the pandemic and government forced lock downs. Keep on keepin on!

[@kenwinston2245]

Enjoying your fun shows thanks 😃 about the skinny front wheels . . . Speaking as a fellow who was delighted to see the birth of these toys as a 5 yr. old could be, hot rods, dragsters etc of the era, HAD to have skinnys up front and huge slicks in back, unrealistic and impractical or not, they just had to, to be cool. Conditioned by the artwork of the day like Ed Roth etc. Maybe, but they knew what we wanted, and they really satisfied, nothing else like them. As fun as the older matchbox cars were, these were loved and coveted big time.

[@acen2000]

Loving that windex blue, came out super sweet👍Another video where your sense of humour shines. Always have fun watching, looking forward to the next Redline. Thanks for sharing 😊

Beautiful colour ! Love the commentary, always makes me smile.

[@honeybreme5479]

Really beautiful, that windex blue is really sharp.

[@rasainsbury]

Love your work! Your commentary is the best. Reminds me of Bill Murray in Caddyshack. So I got that going for me, which Is nice

[@diecast164andmore9]

Super nice!! Looks just like new.👍👍

[@Warex06]

The ultimate virgin hobby: fiddling with the hot wheels the kids wouldn’t want to play with anymore. Great craftsmanship, attention to detail and patience though 👍

[@kodyandanniewilson1732]

Oh I love the blue so much keep up the videos👍🏻👍🏻

[@deweyg5377]

Great vids man! I always feel like I’m watching videos done by father Guido Sarducci doing Carl the Caddyshack groundskeeper impressions. Absolutely enjoyable. The work is amazing too. Keep doing what you’re doing.

[@PhoenixRCCrawler]

I nearly laughed my self off my chair at “ mud butt”. Lol

[@DiecastResurrection]

Hahah That is a good reaction!

[@SuperHeliboy]

That build reminded me why I like HotWheels so much. I clearly remember playing with them in the 60's and thought to myself that the adults that built this really understood the kid that plays with them. Love the mild to wild custom cars and the working suspension. The jewel like colors of the Spectra is the cherry on top.

[@ArtDeranged]

Awesome video once again.. fab restoration, that Blue is a stunner!

[@jeffkrug5541]

Awesome color its squeeky clean love it. Hope Timmy finds his dentures!

[@yavrielsechelle7431]

Heck yeah, that windex blue looks awesome!

[@PacManDreaming]

That blue looks great! Another amazing restoration!

[@drstrangefart]

I'd love to see a Spectraflame orange on the other Firebird. That should look SWEET.

[@A100-y2c]

This is a very late reply, sorry, but my brother owns an original Light-My-Firebird in its original light bronze color -- which I think may be considered the spectraflame orange. White/cream interior, no. 7 stickers on the doors. You're probably aware that it's the Spoilers version of the Custom Firebird.

[@DEmma1972]

Loving the vids. Its like Bob Ross meets Bruce from family guy. So relaxing.

[@Delenter]

I like that color, looks nice. A lighter blue would have also looked really nice I think.

[@asmith515151]

Another gorgeous transformation. Keep up the good work, your videos are great.

[@bigd572]

I swear you're as high as I am when you do one of these videos. Your sound effects and voices tripped me out lol love your videos.

Great Artwork from Rod! Another good video!

[@dapperdadstories8048]

I’m pretty much here for the commentary 🤣 love your stuff!!!

[@tuxpowerpc]

Wow! You know, although your newer at this you definitely have a knack for it. I must say I think you, baremetalhw , and Marty's Matchbox Makeovers are the top three at this sort of hobby. Thanks for another great one!

[@turbolivesinmyheart6328]

Is it an educational video on restoring a car, or just simply pure entertainment.

[@DiecastResurrection]

That's a coin toss my man, I just kinda work on things, speak whatever craziness goes through my mind and this mess is whats left!

[@jazz5767]

Enjoy your time off. Meanwhile, I look forward to more fun and learning. You, Marty Matchbox Makeovers and Baremetal are my top 3.

That's a really nice resto. I'd like to see straighter lines on the tail lights but not sure how to do it well - maybe a bit of pin-striping? I like your vids and can see steady improvements in the quality of your work.
