Fred's custom

From the 1966-1967 short-lived TV series "The Green Hornet", here is the modified Chrysler Imperial known as Black Beauty. Complete with front and rear rocket launchers, front and rear "knock out gas" nozzles. My customer asked me to add lighting to the model as well. Green headlights with red tail lights were added as well as some green interior lighting. I made a custom sound card for the model that includes the verbal and musical intro along with some text from the show.

[@01bluebusa]

Thanks! I've seen a few of the reruns but the show was my brother's favorite back in the day.

I know it was a commissioned job, but thank you for posting. When the theme music began, for just a second, I was 5 years old again at my grandmother’s watching “The Green Hornet” Excellent upgrade to the model!

[@01bluebusa]

haha..thanks. Glad I could revive some memories for you.

[@davidwilliams1201]

@@01bluebusa how much?

[@mustangmarty8491]

Man just saw this video, excellent job, that was really cool. 🇺🇸 MERICA

[@01bluebusa]

thanks Marty

[@novemberbat]

a very cool show

[@01bluebusa]

I never saw it until I was older!

[@josephcabrera6396]

Nice upgrade on the model, I bought one also, the thing on the trunk lid was to be like one of today's drones. Itvwould be sent into areas undetected to pick up audio and video secretly. I read this somewhere

[@01bluebusa]

Thanks! There are some show clips on KZbin that show it in action. They just called it the "scanner".

[@calvinlweir2795]

the scanner was used to track vehicle movements or people from approx 1 mile radius.

[@01bluebusa]

Pretty high tech for those days!

[@calvinlweir2795]

Did you watch the show 01bluebusa?

[@01bluebusa]

I did not. I was born in 1966 so I was a little young for it, I guess. My brother was 7 years older and I think I remember him watching it.

[@fmasmha]

Awesome I would like to have one done. I have the car already. Could you please tell me how much and time frame. Thank you.

[@01bluebusa]

Shoot me an email Fred! Lighted Emergency Diecast@ hot mail. com

[@skulledmonte84]

very coo you got lots of vids and not a single one that i seen of you installing these lights why not ?

[@01bluebusa]

Just never really wanted to make a how to video. I've learned how to build these on my own over the past 15 years and I think that's the best way to learn....hands-on.

[@ajlangley8987]

I have a question. Did you add the audio and the power up lights or was it like that when you got it?

[@01bluebusa]

Yes, I added those features for the customer

[@ajlangley8987]

So if there were no power up lights on that toy car, do you ask them to add the lights or buy the light ups?

[@MrDravenLee]

Hi.I have this model.How much do you charge to do this work? Great job!

[@01bluebusa]

$170 to do one like this.

[@karatohongkongcat]

Hey bud, I have the same black beauty and would like to modify like the video, how can I contact you about this?

[@01bluebusa]

I think you contacted me before about that. you can email me at LightedEmergencyDiecast at hotmail dot com

[@karatohongkongcat]

very nice! i do have the car and ill prob be contacting u on u doing the custom working lights and sounds

[@01bluebusa]

Sounds good..... I think I shot you an email. At least I think that was yours lol.

[@karatohongkongcat]

01bluebusa I lost ur info., can you resend ur info to my email so I can send u my car and u can modify it thank u

[@01bluebusa]

you can email me at LightedEmergencyDiecast at hotmail dot com

[@rogerholloway3896]

What do you charge for something like this? Do you have a website or email in which to contact?

[@01bluebusa]

You can shoot me an email at LIghtedEmergencyDiecast at Hotmail dot com. Thanks!

[@stamps45]

the only thing is you cant put the special features back into the car THEY ALWAYS stick out , its kinda stupid if you asked me ? why would you want they to stick out all the time ??

[@01bluebusa]

Its like anything else...they make them as inexpensive as they can. If all of those features worked, it may add so much to the model that no one would want to purchase it.

[@fredp8486]

Thank You so much . You have reunited the rivalry !! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2W1l5WCj95or5Y
