[@davidneilson3508]

Awesome restoration Paul it looks fantastic 👍👍😊

[@alancarguy1007]

Nice job and fantastic tip on cutting the axle tube. Thanks

[@dannybracken6982]

Great truck . great paint . wish it would of been a costume with details and no decals. But it truly beautiful .. Nice job Pauly !

[@pauly7218]

Looks great. I love the re-use of the tires....

[@marksaenz6309]

That was a great build, the new wheels are much better!

[@DaredevilDave1975]

Love the old Chevy square body in the background

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Love. This. One. Very. Sweet 😌. Nice 👍. Work. As. Always. Brother. Lee

[@diecastsheriff817]

This truck is 100% awesome! The chrome wheels are perfect!

[@michaelparylak5649]

When I was a little kid I had a diecast of the coyote from the Hardcastle & McCormick TV show. When I would play cars. I would pretend the model featured in this video was Judge Hardcastle's truck.😁 I was so happy when I realize that you were keeping the original eagle decals 😊 Shout out to Kenny Terry.

[@carlosdelgado614]

Awesome

[@ericbrooks1562]

I'm simple AMAZED at your skill set. You've probably fix a few I've destroyed 35 or so years ago. 👍

[@DiecastGraveyard]

Thanks Buddy

[@Mr-_-Leo]

This truck looks tough!!! Love it!!!

[@garytasker2038]

Really nice truck, Kenny Terry did those decals perfect and the chrome wheels are spot on

[@iriefixdiecasts6338]

I like the technique you used to hold the axles. This is an awesome restoration. Well done

[@BFreeZ28]

Awesome! Those rims made all the difference. The Bywayman has been a fav since my childhood, I still have my mint blue 79 edition. I have restoring a few of them but painting them white and using the Toys R Us decals from SCredlines. Pics are in my youtube community page.

[@raydoyonful]

I think the chrome wheels look better, nice work!

[@miyagi_draws]

Amazing resto!

[@cjromecki5086]

Just discovered your videos, and they're great! Very informative. I'm going to start doing customs/restorations strictly for myself, and your videos provide a lot of info. Thank you

[@chesterswingjr9796]

Great job!!! I love the square body trucks!!! I still have an original one of these from my childhood, and luckily it’s in mint condition. I also have the gold 63 Highjacker Vette, the blue cobra, maroon Baja Bug, and a few others with “Real Rider” rubber tires.

[@franklinlinebacker7646]

Nice. Wish you could use the old wheels. To me those wheels made it. Now don't get me wrong the new wheels look fabulous. I grew up in that era when the hurricane wheels was the bomb. Great tips for a beginner like me. You are great for helping people. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@brooklyndan11206]

Sweet🤩 great custom/restoration 👍

[@everettmonroe3416]

Nice build!

[@petermata3161]

New and improved!

[@MrJewrican]

Great resto Paul! Kenny has my first set of decals coming for the gasser!

[@TheMakersBox]

Beautiful work. I've been putting the brass tube in the dremel and touching up the ends with 220 or 440 grit. That end contacts the wheel hub so could be a friction point.

[@DBs58]

Great video, I am currently working on this casting..I need to find another windshield and get a replacement decal...

[@davidbeeson1178]

Excellent job brother, it is so awesome to see such a sweet piece brought back to life.

[@DiecastShowCustoms]

Last week I pulled 5 cars from my collection to decide which one to do. This model was one of them. Decided not to do it since it's in good condition. Turned out great.

[@moderndaysalvage3976]

This was one every all my friends had as a kid and I never had but wanted so badly (I have a few now). Keep those old rims they are perfect for General Lee’s when painted gray. Great job

[@garybeauregard5903]

i have two of these in need of resto thanks for the video great job

[@Jsellers1965]

Man That thing turned out nice. I love the chrome wheels. Looks like it was made that way. Thanks Paul!

[@DiecastMediaNetwork]

Looks better than new. Love it!

[@DrewsCustomDiecastDrewMSmith]

Paul you did an amazing job on the Byway Man. I have one of the black versions that I need to find a new roll bar for or possibly build a custom one. It's got the crapy plastic wheels so I may do a full custom. But seeing how yours turned out gives me inspiration and insight into building mine.

[@jp2246]

Turned out great

[@neilcummings9939]

although I love those a team wheels the chrome look great on it looks great

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Super Restoration!

[@VincentVader]

I had that exact truck when I was a kid. I wish I still had it.

[@paulbeck6410]

Then go for it. Ebay or antique shops. Or get a junker and restore it. It becomes very addictive. But nothing wrong with reliving your childhood.

[@hodgeshotwheelsanddiecast5192]

Beautiful job Paul! I love the hot wheels of the 70s and 80s,as they were from the era of my childhood. Especially the original real riders

[@hamadkhalid6633]

Great job, bro

[@andrescrux]

Wow! Dont get much better as a orig resto

[@mrmomjoe8019]

Nice work 👍

[@lotharrenz4621]

supernice, indeed. :D shiny paint, those decals look great, the wheels fit.. now I wonder what tyres would fit on the original wheel rims.I can see them on a corvette or charger. :) come to think of it, I have a 49 ford sedan with those wheels, and they do appear to be needing a wheel bearing adjustment... unlike a Thunderbidy turbo coupe where they are seized shut through corrosion. :P i hope I can make them turn again eventually.

[@rickygreider4281]

Truck turned out bad ass..♣️♠️🖤💀☠️🎄🧑‍🎄💣🥃🖤🇺🇸.... your video 🎥🎥🎥 are great.. hey from northern Illinois

[@jamesbasterd7869]

Love it very cool 😎

[@tinylittledonuts2186]

Funny you should talk about gluing your wheels stuck! Guess what I did this morning!

[@Well_This_Guy_Says]

Awesome job, I love how it turned out!

[@coolwheelz5190]

Nice job and great production on the video! Glad I found your channel. I picked up a couple new tips and I like you Amazon store. Makes it easy to find everything. I checked out Kenny Terry's web site, but it looked like all decals were for models and not 1/64 dicast. Where do you look or do you have to request specific graphics?

[@2ahdcat]

Tight resto+ :)

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Very nice

[@Matt-md5yt]

you had me at Pickup truck, sad it's not called the highwayman. wonder what a Highwayman would be outside of the car from the Fallout 2 video game.

[@MapleLeafCustoms]

Hi Paul, another outstanding job on the Bywayman truck. Better than new now! That's a pristine paint job. Do you have a moment to answer a quick question for me? What size needle and nozzle do you use in your airbrush? My paint inventory is mostly Vallejo acrylic and some Tamiya clear. Thanks, brother. Be cool! From Switzerland - Andrew 👊

[@MapleLeafCustoms]

@@DiecastGraveyard Thanks, Paul! I have two airbrushes, so I might do one of each. Great tips, as always!

[@thethingswediotomakealivin9774]

What size the size of the brass Tubes? Thanks for the great videos.

[@doublebscustoms7217]

I'll send my address so you can mail that to me haha. Truck turned out awesome Paul!

[@coldbloodedkidz860]

Get some CA activator and it will be dry in just a couple seconds.

[@mustangjones67]

It looks like The Fall Guy truck

[@alancarguy1007]

Any idea if that casting came in gray?

[@DiecastGraveyard]

Well it definitely came and silver

[@christophernewman8741]

Was the with or without tool box a running change or just a constant variant?

[@christophernewman8741]

Fair enough you did a great job on this restore custom.

[@dentonsbackyardshow1013]

So mine the bidy is off the fram can you restore it ?

[@dentonsbackyardshow1013]

@@DiecastGraveyard i sure would like that . Well be in touch

[@michaelparylak5649]

Are you sure 79? The bottom of mine says 1977.

[@DiecastGraveyard]

The Hot Wheels Bywayman was released in 1979.

[@michaelparylak5649]

@@DiecastGraveyard okay. Mine is the same color and decals but does not have the Goodyear wheels. Only the standard "hot wheels" wheels of that era. Perhaps I'm missing something.

[@DiecastGraveyard]

I looked it up on Hot Wheels Wikipedia

[@officerjabo4054]

Hey Paul I have 7 cars that need restored also a gas pump to how do I get in contact with you

[@officerjabo4054]

Diecast Graveyard ok dose of cost anything
