The "grating" is called the catwalk

[@kellymcmanaway4069]

Looks like a Peterbilt 362, an old Rubic's Cube

[@TimberWolf429]

@@kellymcmanaway4069 I was gonna say it looked like a Pete

[@chrisconway8163]

If you're restoring a Peterbilt and really want it to stand out, put a little Cialis in your clear coat.

[@charlespatty6822]

Should do a bj and the bear rig

[@hunterohioKovacs]

I am getting Gen 1 Optimus Prime Vibes here with this truck

[@PozerAdultRacingTeam]

That's what I was thinking too.

[@MatSpeedle]

Epic! I'm loving all these customs on the cheap castings. Making something awesome out of very little, I dig it.

[@NitrousDiecast]

Very nice!

[@dj_spaulding]

Nice 😎 Love how it came out 💯💯💯💯

[@Lanefasts]

Primo restoration!! Used to love those "flat front" trucks as a kid, reminds me of classic Optimus Prime!

[@byronsshop7493]

Missed opportunity

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

Awesome! I worked at a truck gate for a busy distribution center and got to see hundreds of OTR, over the road, trucks a day. Very few cab over engine models, but i think there are a lot of tuck drivers that would love a paint job like what you do! Keep up the good work! Keep on truckin'!!!!!

[@justinwalton2047]

I still have a few of those from my childhood in the early 80's. Brings back memories.

[@navyf4s]

MORE Trucks! Hell ya! especially cabover.

[@markyoder4025]

Great looking Peterbilt 352 , love those cabovers .

[@carlosramsesdelosreyesbeni3375]

IT LOOKS LIKE THE SEMI TRUCK SQUARE SHAPE LIKE OPTIMUS PRIME LEADER OFF THE AUTOBOTS !👍

[@kennybacchus2629]

Painting diecast. Cars cab over restoration okay 👍

[@bradleyj.fortner2203]

Nicely done. I too like everything about it. Painting the rear black was definitely the way to go.

[@shellygenter8585]

Happy to see you pur the black pinstriping back on. It looked waaaay better with it.

[@redflthcui]

This one gets a big like! That turned out outstanding

[@Leader460]

70's or 80's Kenworth cab-over,looks like ❤✌

[@johnsterling7420]

Awesome cabover Austin the truck looks like a Peterbilt or Kenworth. I could be wrong. Great restoration .👍👌😊

[@whateveryoda]

I was thinking maybe an early model freightliner. The grill looks very much like a freightliner.

[@BulletNoseBetty]

Absolutely fabulous. Just one FYI. If you ever find another truck like that, match it up with the right trailer, paint the whole thing gray and you would have Goliath from the old Knight Rider TV show.

[@phillipdavis3705]

In my head, blue would look good!

[@michaelsmitherman2831]

I really dig it when you do the other castings that are not Matchbox or Hot Wheels . Some have cool detail but lame wheels & paint, it's cool seeing what they could be. As always killer job.

[@gregabreu7346]

It turned out really nice the paint was on point. The black tape really set it off. 👍

[@Straight0uttaCrofton]

Canadian Truckers Unite!🍁

[@neilcummings9939]

I've been and still am a huge optimus prime fan so the cab over has always been a fav of mine. glad you put the black pin stripping back on looks way better with. amazing end result looks awesome

[@matchboxmark8191]

Me too Neil!

[@mitchellnewberry9717]

I love the trucks!

[@goddimmus]

Night and day , man. Night and day. Great job!

[@Guitarrockstar5683]

Stripper music was a nice touch! Looks great!

[@andresmarantz3820]

Make a Goliath from Knight rider from that trailer.Kitt Nemesis.

[@travelersdiecastcustoms1511]

Good stuff. I like the Black pin strips for sure! Another great job!!👍👍👍

[@sctcustoms8461]

Good looking 352 cab over Peterbilt!

[@gregmoorhead365]

Mack with twin lamps looks way coll

[@SELIMNIVEK]

THE BLUE MULE!

[@tork62077]

Damn!!!! That’s pretty damn sweet!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mortenhenningsen940]

Hello 🙋‍♂️ This truck turned out great with that awesome collour.

[@orondedavis]

Incredible! All your work is done tastefully and your details are impeccable.👍🏿

[@stevecann3394]

So good I actually swore out loud at the reveal😃 pimping off-brand castings is so a thing.

[@Leader460]

Hell yeah brother"keep on truck'n"❤✌

[@turbouno969]

Bad ass! You need to print up some Yosemite Sam “Back Off” mudflap stickers for the next truck.

[@NotAGarage]

I left a Like👍And I'm saying Hello in the comments 👋

[@damianmcadams4253]

Looks killer, even the wheels work very nicely done

[@leonardmarinacci4303]

Looks like a Kenworth k100. Love cabovers.

[@darrellbedford4857]

you are right,it looks much better with the black pin stripping.another great build. the truck resembles an early 1970's Peterbilt cabovers.

[@LowTechFarm]

Definitely dig the blacked out frame, over the body color. It adds some details to the rig hiding the rear end.

[@Aaron007]

Looks amazing I dig the colour and the black was definitely the right thing to do. I do however think it would look even better with some nicer wheels but looks amazing, keep up the good work!

[@luissilvia8180]

Love the cabover builds this one looks like a 352 peterbilt.

[@randoliof]

Would be cool if you had a trailer for it! Super retro, loved the colors

[@thiagoa1881]

I grew up playing with those chinese casts. Just lovin the restorations.

[@SW990]

Austin I love that blue! It doesn't even look like the same truck! nice work man.

[@mitchellambrose2293]

My guess would be a Peterbilt, grinding off them "lights or vents" made all the difference! Great job! Keep them truck (cars too) videos coming!

[@dj_spaulding]

yeah it looks so much better all flat 👍

[@paulliddiard141]

I really like the paint scheme!!

[@joeholloway1386]

Nice restoration, details and paint job 👍👍

[@jimmysuperduty1484]

Hell yeah cabovers rule

[@KAPTKipper]

Looks like a Yatming, kinda like finding them. Gotta give the offbrands some love.

[@thomasdavis5]

Looks awesome! Need to 3d print a trailer for it!

[@danieldevite668]

Nice color. It pops

[@diediedie741]

Awesome look

[@pioneeradx]

Add some premium wheels and you have another RLC model. Looking forward to the next one.

[@RestorationAustralia]

Stunning job, looks way better than the original.

[@scottwilson2959]

Beautiful cabover 👍

[@jbroski84]

Absolutely gorgeous cab over my friend👍👍.. If you're not already working on it a matching Box trailer would be pimp😎

[@ashtonbatterson5309]

blub blubblub hell yeah man. Love it. Keep it up.👍👍✔😃

[@andrewbryant4558]

That casting kinda looks like a Chinese Autobot knock-off. You made it work...

[@jameshunt9130]

Awesome paint

[@lannyfloyd6131]

Awesome job buddy!!🤠👍 I was anticipating that you were going to go with the classic Optimus Prime look but that choice was just as satisfying!!

[@tonyneises5195]

Very cool!!! Love that color!!! Brrrrum

[@bamss1010]

Dam that big rig came out sweeeet my man

[@fattonysgarage67]

Sweet af! Love the cab over ,❤

[@Sir-Jimbob-the-Turd]

What looks awesome! Great job!

[@grantyergen9077]

Wow that looks amazing

[@l1zrdking]

Must be reflection because the stripe looks more green than the roof. But hell yeah, that's a beaut. The chrome + tip light paint job really made them pop.

[@jamesdollen113]

HEEEEELLLLL YEAH finally a semi cabover. I'm a driver in America and I love your channel. But this one is EPIC you are amazing with what you do. If you ever want to sell it hit me up I'd love to buy it. TOTALLY AWESOME

[@DiecastResurrection]

It just sold on ebay a week ago if you watch my recent video hehe

[@elickes]

Great video as always. Love the little details. You have an amazing way of transforming these cheap casts. Speaking of transforming...

[@956fgarcia]

Wow that is so awesome man………….. You get. Better and better every video you do congrats..

[@TerribleTim68]

Pretty sure it's suppose to be an 80s Peterbilt. 😉 Looks awesome. Well done. 😎

[@BPCustomCreations]

Nice truck 👍

[@Turbo231]

Dude, you rocked it! Super nice!

[@rc67die-castcollector]

That was a cool build. Love the sounds effects. Lol!

[@braunx25]

Love the colors and details. Even with the stock wheels, it still looks great.

[@jamessturrock6802]

You are keeping me very inspired. I want to be able to do my own show and I've got a starting idea. Keep up the amazing work. Thank you.

[@angelaprice6147]

Classic Optimus prime paint would be awesome

[@lonniekropf808]

Looks good, but I think the blue would pop more over a black base… just a thought for a future project.

[@user-ik5bm6nw9j]

i love it austin

[@CallMeMrStopmotion]

I gotta say, that was something sweet you made! I always thought those were Kenworths or Peterbilts. The rig does deserve a fresh wheel swap though,

[@robertchato3040]

Your work is so impressive!

[@jasondill2707]

Great job

[@lukeinferno]

Sweet color combo. Kinda reminds me of Ultra Magnus, Optimus Prime's 2nd in command. Very cool.

[@stephenmagor4272]

Looks great.

[@TheWeakenedWarrior]

That is a masterpiece. Very nice!

[@randybrinkley2277]

Looks awesome!!!

[@sundown...7718]

Dude you are the best !! One of my favorite channels

[@markrobinson8865]

Great job 👍

[@seezers1296]

Love the build. You should do a stretched semi for a custom build

[@lennonjames3871]

Nice job brother 👍👍🍻

[@scottflanagan7927]

Good work

[@JoseGonzalez-xg4ev]

Hi, you made a cheap casting into a one of a kind beauty ,well done

[@jonce6750]

[@briansdiecastthailandstoth6747]

Wow fantastic...

[@Microman504]

Very nice work! Next time you get your hands a truck like this one, you should make Optimus Prime from the original Transformers cartoon 😀

[@fatdriver]

Gorgeous! Very nice paint job and the pinstripes tied it all together. Glad you painted the frame black. Everything looks great. Love the truck builds. You knocked it out of the park with this one!!!

[@clintgoodwill4545]

love the two tone paint, looks retro. awesome job.

[@chrislight4325]

That looks awesome! Great color choices. For fun, maybe an old school Optimus Prime next time?
