Hot Wheels Customization : FLATOUT 442

My Amazon Tools List - www.amazon.com/shop/diecastre...
The Flatout 442 is a super cool vintage Hot Wheels casting that has some modern looks and some old school power. This one seater race car is an awesome casting to customize. I played around with the idea of making ghost decals below a tasty candy paint job.

The best thing about all the diecast people I watch on KZbin is that you guys are all so different. I enjoy the variety.

[@DiecastResurrection]

Yea we all seem to have different strengths so that’s cool!

[@k4zn41]

I've been meaning to talk about how much I love the guest commentary from your compressor. Glad to see him getting the screen time he deserves

[@DiecastResurrection]

Hahaha I was getting annoyed by it cause it kept interrupting me.. glad you got my joke :)

[@GlibHarbringer]

One of my favorite childhood castings. I'll patiently await the custom HW Dodge Aries wagon. (C'mon, you know you want to)

[@ianhawkins3687]

Best looking FLATOUT 442 I’ve ever seen! Fantastic build

[@krazytaxicabbie]

Got me saying BRRRRRR! before the video even starts. Love this channel!

[@noahfrog9528]

I like your demonstration of today’s trick of the trade move. “We’ve got a Mach 5 Razorback on this thing!” Super stoked your publishing more frequent videos!! Big fan!

[@DiecastResurrection]

Hells ya brother!

[@francispalmer9737]

WOW WOW and WOW nice one, I am 55 never to old.

[@kennybacchus3378]

Like video. Kenny

[@AleCatGarage]

That color goes fantastic with that body style. But the ghosting affect, really modernizes it. Another bad ass car sir.

[@harleyguyinmilw]

I'll say it again, the quality of your paint is far above the other channels I follow. (your real painting experience shines through). You also gave away "a little secret" on this one!!!!

[@tyler3766]

this is the best hot wheels channel ever- sorry wheelsnthangs and outlaw speed shop

[@awoodworker]

I'm 61 and am a little old school but I love the result of the Cutlass. I think you've coined a new phrase " Pimp Muscle" . I see ghost flames in your future . I've rattle canned 1/25th scale cars since I was 12 can and I was "usually" happy with the results, but I can't imagine trying to do it on 1/43 and smaller. Now, due to eyesight and shaking hands I only do 1/18th and larger. I recently bought an air brush but haven't gained the courage to use it. Sucks getting old. lol I love your work and I have been able to incorporate some of your techniques in to my 1/18th scale builds and repairs. Keep up the good work and positive attitude.

[@davidwest7443]

Back in the day this was one of my favorite castings. Not sure why but I always like the design. The experiment worked out great. The wheels and the paint really make this stand out. This would be a great add to any collection. Great job.

[@itisi2656]

My first 2 castings were this olds 442 I called it my late model. Bring a dirt track racing fan and all it and the old #5 fire truck. The red one with golf fleck not the yellow. Your experiment turned out great I really enjoyed riding along. Look up old number 5 sometime I built a live stock car in it resemblance.

[@DJNIAPO]

Damn! Nostalgia alert! This is one I had as a kid!!!

[@jaypeeztabernac851]

pretty sure we all did :)

[@boerharms2209]

That decal technique... You should make some really cool ghost flames on a hotrod or something! Would look sick!

[@MatthewTyreeKS]

Don't change a thing brother! I love your attitude and the way you tell us how you do things! Plus that sweet Canadian accent is a bonus! Everything you do is cool! This old Oldsmobile brings back memories to this old Missourian. Thanks for what you do!

[@TemberGundam]

Way to close out hump day! With a sweet resurrection video.

[@johnfaulk7775]

Dude, you are the best customizer on you tube!!! Just keep doing your thing man. That’s why we like you!!!

[@Dave_Boyer]

Wow! That looks way better!! Blunts for Jimmy!!

[@DiecastResurrection]

LOL

[@boerharms2209]

Cool little casting! never realised it had all those cool little decals :D That blue candy with those wheels really set it off!

[@michaelwyderka32]

Your dialog is great... and if I do say... your attention to detail inregards to finish and scratch removal is the best I have seen in all these channels. Keep up the good work!

[@DiecastResurrection]

Thanks brother!

[@Davedarko]

I remember the times when the list of suggested videos wasn't all "kids reviewing toys" but actual related channels :D Nice work btw. :)

[@RMoribayashi]

Try wiping your KZbin watch and search histories. It's not perfect but should help make the suggested videos more tuned to what you watch. Just don't click on any kiddie reviews after you clear them.

[@paxhumana2015]

@@RMoribayashi , you all that are complaining about that are nothing but a bunch of elitist and age discriminating hypocrites. You all were children that liked vehicles once yourselves, so why are you all discouraging a new generation of future gear heads? Also, are you all not aware that children might also watch videos like this one as well?

[@RMoribayashi]

@@paxhumana2015 Go practice your trolling on someone whe gives a damn

[@TisBestinDiecast66]

I like that custom fella, great to see experiments knock it out of the park. I let Timerider know the sponge trick, it's an idea I've used for years as a plastic modeller and saves a lot of grief. SidewaysKing uses the same method and he is a seasoned modeller as well so must be something us old gits learnt back in the depths of time.

[@azelshort4177]

When I used to do model cars, I found a great paint combination for the same affect. For example if I was going for a purple. I would base coat either black or white depending on how dark I wanted it to appear. Then I would use metal flake blue base with transparent red over that. Man it made a beautiful color. Car looks awesome btw.

[@dirtydsrc]

The Flatout 442 was one of my top three fave HW I had when I was a kid.

[@zacharyfassett235]

That blue is so awesome, all shades of blue are my favorite and it looks soo good on the model, nice paint choice!

[@raymonde4272]

That looks great, and the painted fire extinguisher does give a nice flash of colour in the interior.

[@kevinbroughton2200]

Diecast Resurrection I think you do an awesome job on the diecast that you repair I watch you all the time and enjoy what you do I just want to thank you for doing it

[@rcbulldog8698]

Paint looks awesome! Old guy approved 😀

[@josephdeffendoll3056]

Marty did excellent!!! And the interior looks cool too....

[@isakkronlund4755]

Ive been a subscriber for 2 years👏❤️🎆👍

[@pbrady187]

Yes. This method would make awesome ghost flames. That blue is great too.

[@alexandracolorado1421]

You make me and my husband laugh so hard we love watching you

[@GodPikachu]

The wide bodykit makes it look a bit like a Zakspeed Ford Capri.

[@paxhumana2015]

​@@themichael3410 , if we are talking about the Second Generation Mercury Capri, then you would be correct, but the First Generation Mercury Capri is essentially the Ford (UK) Capri and the Third Generation Mercury Capri is a unique vehicle.

[@thebaconbrotato]

Blue is my favorite color. Really turned out nice.

[@brianartillery]

07:52 The first channel I saw the excellent decal/sponge interface was that of 'Sideways King 75'. It's a fantastically useful tip. The layered paint and decalling would be great for creating 'ghost flames'. As an experiment, I'd say that it was a success. It looks awesome.

[@donaldswink6259]

That car turned out really sweet.

[@laurentbelin2194]

definitely a success! Well done!

[@curtisogilvy2889]

Love the compressor humour! Great job btw

[@Nero62CustomDiecast]

Turned out fantastic.. I love that casting and you did a great job with it.

[@michaelpeel9347]

Nice results, Love the color, the paint looks awesome! I think the attention to detail makes the car pop even more, you said you were painting the extinguisher but no one was going to look in there anyway, well you can clearly see it through the window and that really adds to the over all custom work. Great Video.....oh yeah don't be changing nothing up,you keep doing you, it is one of the reasons this viewer keeps coming back, not just the awesome restores and customs but the commentary and personality. Anyway Great video thanks for sharing!! Mike from Texas, Take Memories,Leave Footprints

[@MoonMoon-rj6fs]

This is not custom....this is art......!!! Saludos desde México City......!!! ✌😀

[@rattlinghost8904]

That looks amazingly good. Well done

[@detroitcustom]

My most favourite Hotwheel Flatout 442 rules man

[@JorgeLDiaz]

I have this car, it came with the 1978 Criss Cross Crash Race set. Mine is Orange. This restoration came out awesome. The grey at the start look good but the blue really set it off.

[@user-zv6ns2ki3u]

Super cool carce 😊

[@Outlawstar79]

sucess sucess we've done we've done it! That blue really stands out and I have to say Kudos on the idea with the decals!. Hey man you channel is doing really well and with the addition of more vids yours will soon bop right up to a 100k...remember we are all here pulling for you!

[@DiecastResurrection]

Oh I know brother, was just making some awkward conversation waiting for the little bloke there to be finished cooking lol. You guys are really good to me!

[@Outlawstar79]

You are good to us so we just end up paying it forward, I like when you get the experiment bug and pull off something zany like this lil mud bug!

[@chha6439]

Wow man you had me at the first coat dude ..wonderful job,thank you for sharing. Stellar

Thanks brother!

[@selfempl]

Nice project. Love the creative wheel tunnel!

[@johnferrell7979]

Like the ghost effect. Would like to see you do more customizations like this one

[@arleysimpson3678]

Flames would be better than detail-type decals - awfully hard to read those under the paint. The flames would have like a "ghost-image" effect, which would be pretty bad-ass!

[@tygrkhat4087]

I was thinking the same thing Arley. This seems like the best way to make ghost flames.

[@kungfuchimp5788]

Love the more obscure real world stuff.

[@diediedie741]

That’s awesome how you ghost the decals

[@Anlushac11]

Wow. Im amazed at how good that looks. Looks to be about a 1978 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 with a body kit.

[@trevor-johnsen]

Yep! Based on the 1978 "Mid-Engine 442" from the cover of Hot Rod Magazine!

[@CallMeMrStopmotion]

Awesome casting! I always wanted to get one of these to turn into a stock-looking car.

[@edgarmatzinger9742]

Fantastic result!

[@chrisandrews5174]

That was awesome.like the colour you did . amazing job.

[@diecast164andmore9]

The color is absolutely gorgeous!! The decals are really wicked as well!! Awesome work on the 442, it's one of my many favorites.

[@charlessweigert6180]

Looks pretty cool to me. As for the axels, your idea worked well. I've used super glue and baking soda to put them in and that works well too. The decals and candy paint looks awesome. Would work well for ghost flames. Over all, successful restoration.

[@Coach_Butch]

My favorite Hot Wheels car of all time. nice work

[@ronalddubuc848]

This paint job is amazing even with the reaction from the decal solvent. You are a true artist. I wish I could find a 56 Cadillac that I could send you to be restored. My father had a 56 coupe de ville when I was a child and I remember crying when he sold it. He said that if he'd known how much I loved that car he would have kept it. (I think that I told him but I guess not)

[@shellygenter8585]

Oooooo. I want a vehicle painted that colour!! I'm a sucker for blue.

[@jondickinson5623]

Those M2 Foose wheels look great!!!

[@tonybecker7259]

Dude that is one sweet paint job. Looking forward to your next ideas with these candy paints.

[@GrantDexter]

Great technique with the axle holes.

[@danielmahoney1546]

That came out NICE.

That shine ! What a beautiful deep colour. Really nice job !

[@clemonsjoey]

Love how this turned out! I gotta admit, when I get a notification that you just uploaded a new video, I get excited, you never disappoint brother!

[@DiecastResurrection]

You’ll have a new one for breakfast bud!!!

[@davidmatousek4483]

I have a few orange ones that came in the criss cross crash race track set,im old school so i like oroginal,but i also remember when i was a kid yesterday,i took my extras and customized them,cheers!

[@sped6954]

13:23 PHRASING! BOOM! I can't believe you threw that one out there and no one a swing at it😁😁😁 I just couldn't let that one go without stopping dead in my tracks to take that swing! I really like how this one turned out. While you were screwing the body back on to the base I was telling to you to nor forget to paint the fire extinguisher handle and hose, and also the seat belt buckles. I guess you couldn't hear me 😁 Yeah the ghost decals under the candy works really well. I have a feeling that one more coat might have been the one to completely cover them. Obviously you have an extensive background with paints, going back way further than the several months that you've been customizing and/or restoring diecast vehicles. Ok I'm on to the next one...

[@johnnyvscustomsgaragetassie.]

It's a cool teeny blue tuna. love it

[@youngtimeroldtimer72]

Great job . Very cool colour and wheels. Perfect ;-).

Yes I bought one of these the other week to customise ! Such a cool casting !

[@dalemckenzie5317]

Ghost graphics, love em

[@ihatelogincrap]

The thing you're doing with the liquid mask can be done with Pam cooking spray or also a wax. Like furniture paste wax or probably a liquid mask too. That works with jb weld, Bondo and epoxy puttys. If you're careful you can restore or create screw threads this way too.

[@jonserkspawn7776]

I toured that GM facility in HS auto shop class. Sweet to have seen this. Who knew there was a HW of an X Body

I like the things you do with your cars. You made a comment about Marty's channel doing good ... Two things: 1. Just do you ... and 2. there are two different flavors going on with the two of you ... Some like bland plain white bread ... other like spicy nachos with hat salsa.
