[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

Thumbs up 150, prefect matchup you legend, looks like it should be, hope hotwheels #hotwheels is watching 👀 enjoyed, hope you're doing well and the family Cheers 🍻 KC 🇦🇺🤝🇺🇲😊😎🦘🦘🦘

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much KC! I post SO much stuff in SO many places that hopefully they see it lol (I did post it on the Mattel Creations Community board...so who knows? lol)

[@ShawnStafford-1978]

That's a awesome looking build design together.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Shawn!

[@ShawnStafford-1978]

@@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms Your welcome Jim

[@neilcummings9939]

absolutely love this amazing build I agree a builder should make a 1 to 1 scale of this

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Neil!

[@russhoffman6301]

A car builder needs to build a 1:1 scale version of this and debut it at a SEMA show, and invite you when it happens (if it does). Wonderful work.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Russ! Going to SEMA is one of those bucket list things for me.

[@Pickchore]

Nice Jim. I love the Bone Shaker. It’s the only unlicensed casting I collect. The Batman 5 pack version with The Joker’s head on the front instead of a skull is a favourite.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Adam! The one with the Joker's head is cool.

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

NICEEEEEE Work . Very KOOLLLL . Mike . 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Big like 👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Mike! I had a blast making this one!

[@Trommelfritz]

If you´d place this mashup in your "Cool or not" section my answer would be: Way cool! Very great job.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

LOL Thanks Fritz!

[@bjscustoms]

Definitely an amazing build the Grinch would drive this one for sure.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Brandon!

[@martindaredare]

What a fantastic combo of these 2 castings, looking really smart 👌

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Martin! It's almost like the two castings were made to fit together - merging the two was the easy part lol Closing off that front end of the Bone Shaker was the hard part lol

[@Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda-Was-HWRL]

Finally I can comment! I love this mash up. This is how it this casting should have looked to start out. Fabrication and detailing, especially the color, is so spot on. It’s a mean one in all the best ways… thanks so much for the build and video!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Brian! The color choice really was dumb luck...and I love it!

[@jimmyzwheelz]

As always, your thoughtful attention to detail is much admired and appreciated! What a fantastic mashup of castings! And perfect color indeed…absolutely love it, Jim! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Jimmy! The engine had so much detail built into it that it was a blast making it pop. I was really happy to stumble across the Grinch decals as I really had no definite idea what direction the paint was going to take.

[@matchboxmark8191]

You have nailed it Mr. Silva! Wow! I absolutely love it!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Mark!

[@OldManDiecast]

Outstanding job Jim

Thanks so much Mark!

[@shortersdiecast4130]

Turned out beautiful Jim!!! Love that color green. Thanks for sharing, take care and stay safe my friend 😊

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Gary! Gotta admit that I love that darn Walmart rattle can spray green a LOT myself. Take care!

[@MapleLeafCustoms]

Love a good two vehicle mashup, Jim. Very creative choices here and it looks as though it was always meant to be! All your fabrication work and attention to detail make for a wonderful creation. Big thumbs up from Switzerland! 🍁☕👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Andrew! This one was in my mind a LOT longer than it was on my bench...and I got lucky and the build wasn't nearly as tough as I had imagined it to be lol...and it turned out as I hoped it would.

[@daneself858]

Amazing build 🔥🔥🔥😎

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Dane!

[@armandoflores462]

Wow what an amazing build. The mashing of both castings looks great. The paint job and decals were a perfect match.👍🏽😎

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Armando! The final decision on color and decals really was almost dumb luck, finding the decals in my "stack of decals I really need to get around to using" lol

[@mortenhenningsen940]

Wow. Thisbuild is awesome. And now you got a ford frontend to build something cool outof

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Morten!

[@phoboz666]

I think the idea that you can take the model apart and put it back together again like a classic Hot Wheels is very good. It also seems robust even though it is a custom model. The engine details turned out great, as did the entire concept. Greetings

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much! The engine detail was a lot of fun to bring out - it's too bad Hot Wheels didn't do that originally.

[@santaslowdog]

I love the choices you made. Excellent build and video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Santa!

[@jchayes7325]

That makes the bone shaker look ahead of a lot better than it does the original way keep up the good work have a good one and God bless my friend

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks JC! Have a great weekend!

[@TimeRider]

Very Nice!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Lee!

[@Mr-_-Leo]

This is sick! If they ever do a “Munsters” movie THIS HAS TO BE their car. Crazy awesome!!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Mr. Leo! It would make a cool Munsters car!

[@schottys-diecast]

This thing is so cool! I love the color combination!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much!

[@edwardchristiana7355]

Amazing build Jim. I have too many cars in my collection to count and your grinch would be my number one if added to my collection. Please keep building and sharing with all of us.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much! This build was SO much fun to do and I’m thinking of another one right now.

[@simplekustomsbyeddiepapand1838]

Outstanding job Jim much better!!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Eddie!

[@Lahire-s7l]

Super custom cool top taf😊

Thank you!

[@skippullen8667]

That Grinch is a show stealer, Jim! Sweet build! I was waiting for the JB Weld, Lol 😆!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Skip! You knew that JB Weld HAD to make an appearance lol

[@johnrodriguez489]

Awsome Build

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks John!

[@urideamabal]

Very cool, Jim.... 🤑👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Uri!

[@wickedsmallgarage]

Looks great, between this and kieth's video yesterday, im ready to cut something up. Keep the JB weld flowing 👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Scott! No worries, the JB Weld is always well stocked and flowing lol

[@davidneilson3508]

[@joeholloway1386]

Nice build, details and paint job 👌 👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Joe!

[@jimmyzwheelz]

I can’t keep admiring this creation, Jim…just a perfect build! I would cherish this for my collection if you ever decide to sell it. 😉👍🏼

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Jimmy! Knowing what amazing Bone Shaker builds you do makes this mean even more and I truly appreciate it! This one isn't going to stray from home - it's one of those "bucket list" builds that's been haunting me for years.

[@mikesmodscustoms]

Awesome work! Thanks for sharing.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Mike!

[@jodezero]

Great build Jim. Came out very nice. Super mashup of casts. Fantastic work as always

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Jody! It's always fun slamming a couple castings together lol

[@majorbattle9830]

Beautiful build👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much! It was a blast to smash these two castings together.

[@MartyTaillon6162]

Sweet bro

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@deweyg5377]

That is a very cool mash-up Jim. We'll done.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much!

[@garyaguilar8716]

That's awesome, my brother.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Gary!

[@ottersanctuary5588]

That is cool. Well done Jim!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thank you!

[@marcoantoniomarquezperez2652]

The rear end of Mid Mill eventually became the rear end of Tomb Up, so if you run out of Mid Mills you can always use one of those for the rear end. That finished product looks amazing. Bone Shaker is one of my all time fav castings. I have a Mid Mill First Edition, and a bunch of Tomb Ups. That green shade you used pops perfectly with the grinch decals.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Marco! Thanks also for letting me know about the Tomb Up - I don't recall ever seeing that casting before and it would come in handy to use in more mashups of castings.

[@markrobinson8865]

Great job Jim and looks awesome 👍🏻

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Mark!

[@markrobinson8865]

@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms you're welcome and I voted for you 😊

[@lennonjames3871]

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much!

[@Ready2Diecast]

Man thats a wicked build! Great work!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Jeremy! I'm SO happy with how it turned out!

[@tenchoangelov5603]

KING OF MAKEOVER😁

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@davidbeeson1178]

What a bloody awesome build brother. I'm not a bone shaker kind of guy, this one is up for my favorite.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much David!

[@geoffersongeofferies477]

Super clean build Jim. Very cool!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much!

[@ernierodriguez2619]

Excellent build

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Ernie!

[@merlinmagi463]

Jim Silva, congratulations for this award winning build! Great Designs, you should work at Mattel. No, why limit yourself!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

LOL Thanks so much...but yeah, working at Mattel isn't in my future. I'm WAY too old and grumpy LOLOLOL

[@Sweed1of3]

That is an awesome mash up!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Bob!

[@SoMoDiecast]

Nice mashup Jim! Looks fantastic!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Ron! Sometimes I'm not sure what I've mashed up more of - Bone Shakers or Kombis lololol

[@OutlawSpeedShop2001]

Haha, yeah I do regret it lol. But this came out sooo good! Glad to see it brought you some inspiration because it paid off with this one for sure

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Keith! Your Mad Science build truly was the inspiration for this...and also a source of frustration for years now...looking at it in my collection and saying to myself "damn I've gotta do a Bone Shaker version of that" and always being afraid of tackling it at the same time lol

[@Jeff-xl6ds]

That is a badass mashup bro. Love the color

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Jeff! It was a REALLY fun build to make.

[@BrianMcKnight68]

Nailed it.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Brian!

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Charlie!

Looks awesome

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@RdoFlyr_MN]

I love it!!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@lotharrenz4621]

so, the Bone shaker became a Bone Mill now? nice shakeup, looks like one piece, really. :) that rear end would go with the old HW trucks, too. :)

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Lothar! The back would really work with a LOT of different castings...but like this one for me, it's getting around to doing it that's the tough part lol

[@scooterdoughmas3012]

holy chit Jim what an awesome build thinkin a drag wing but how i dont know 😅ps Outlaw was my inspiration to building 1/64s again after 15 years doing this stuff since i was a kid slot cars mostly😁🤩scooter out stay safe dou😎

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks! I know what you mean about the wing - it actually did cross my mind during the build...but I couldn't figure out a way (at least with my current skill set) to do it without it somehow looking patched on or silly. A green wing back there would look good...at least in my mind lol. Thanks again!

[@scooterdoughmas3012]

Hell yeah body color🤣😎

[@Xn7000]

I'll always show up for a bone shaker.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

17.6 K ❤ wow 😮🎉🎉🎉

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

LOL yep...I started getting "serious" about getting the channel in front of people around last October if I remember correctly. Since then, I spend quite a bit of each day on it and have been pretty successful at expanding the worldwide reach (my outside the U.S. numbers have risen amazingly). Thanks my friend! I hope you and CC are doing well.

[@GrinchWitch]

It is a beauty! I understand you are keeping it BUT if you change your mind I know of an awesome home for it! Btw FRUGAL is the proper word, not cheap.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much...but yep, this one will be staying home, and then land on one of the kids shelves one day. Honestly, frugal sounds about three levels higher than where I'm at lol

[@larrystipe3170]

The Grinch is off The Chain

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Larry!

[@jhonistein5347]

Hi love the video love the work but I think u over killed it . take the fenders oof and give it the bun shack grill and it's dune.keep them coming

[@jhonistein5347]

I anderstand it's a 32 and the bone shaker its a model A .😉

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks! Since it's for a Bone Shaker event, I wanted to keep the "key" of a Bone Shaker in place...plus, I really like how it looks lol

[@rudimoons554]

👍 Thx 🇧🇪.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thank you too!

[@kevinfhaney]

Little WD-40 on the wheels

[@proudpapa9704]

Personally, I believe if you axle drop the front and axle raise (1) in the rear, it might look better (more level) underneath... visually

[@pearlwhitehd]

👍👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@kevinfhaney]

Ok
