[@DiecastResurrection]

Hey Hey its me, how is your week going so far? Hope you like my Piston Popper ;) DAMMIT I TOTALLY MISSED THOSE NUMBERS IN EDITING!!! Clink 🍺🍺

[@duanemartin4958]

I think it turned out awesome 😎.. I'm not usually into normal restos.. but, in all honesty.. I come back for you. I love your personality.. it reminds me of my friends and I back in Vancouver BC 🇨🇦 I always look forward to your videos.

[@nitcat1]

Beautiful! I was hoping for a demo of those popping pistons 😀

[@thomasphillips885]

Same!!!

[@2H80vids]

We'll never know if you got them pistons a-poppin'.😒

[@paulbeck6410]

I like the color with just the base silver, sparkles and the pink.

[@DiecastResurrection]

Yea its like the pink version of that matchbox green finish we did the other day.

[@robertsmith9397]

I had a rolla-matic. I had the yellow Ford pick-up that had the lion that walked in circles in the bed. Use a Carroll Shelby snake logo.

[@mcho550]

No Snake on that Foxbody. Maybe do the Pacecar?

[@bakert05]

Racing Strips the "Snake" looks like a worm.

[@Leader460]

The" cobra" snake

[@nicknicoletti9778]

Fantastic!! Beautiful color!

[@srth8r340]

I still have an orange Sunkist piston popper.

[@FluffyTheGryphon]

Keep the snake! It's adorable on there. It appears that I'm outnumbered in voting to keep it though. Haha

[@DiecastResurrection]

lol i don't this cause its "adorable" is going to convince me !!!

[@realmaindrianpace]

I still have my Piston Popper from when I was a kid, and it's still pretty minty. That's probably the best one I've seen, other restorers have tried to revive them, but they always get the color off. But that paint looks exactly right, and glossier than they ever were. 10/10.

[@willgraves5536]

NO SNAKE!!!!! Stocker Cobra!

[@jerrybynum5702]

Heck yeah! PIMP! On the "Snake," stay with the same idea, but with a masterful snake design ...

[@OldManTheseDays]

Dayum, looks fantastic!

[@cashmoneyboys4628]

I really like the snake decal for its hediousness!! Maybe a Shelby Cobra somethin’ somethin’. The Piston Popper didnt disappoint! One of my favorite castings, good job!!

[@musclemanmitch3380]

Beautiful paint color. Good job.

[@jerrybailey5797]

Stunning Piston Popper Mustang Ace , that paint job came out first class 👏 👍 👌.....

[@solitairesmith3553]

This car is a BEAST LOVE the color. These videos NEVER DISAPPOINT!!!

[@ghettodiecastcustoms7988]

Wow, that car brings me back to my childhood.

[@magicninja7303]

I loved that one when I was a kid hard to find these days

[@pflick13]

That is some sweet paint my friend!!

[@PaperworkNinja]

The paint job is fantastic, but the showstopper for me was the engine restoration. Wow! Looks mint!

[@paulmcnamara16]

Had a green one when I was a child! Always liked that style of Mustang!

[@Adrianov93]

it's beautiful.. my god it's sooo beautiful

[@danj.1064]

Still love this mustang, it is a trophy in my case of mustangs. The paint/body work is so well done!

[@sabledriver]

You are a Master on the airbrush! A beauty, one of my favorites. Thanks!

[@gr5535]

Stunning ! 👍🏁 😃

[@27bikebrothers27]

Beautiful restoration absolutely love it. Thank 😊 you

[@ScottsafriendofGod]

Totally dig on the paint.... KILLER

[@khwamtay6459]

I still have a orange crush version of this car. Great job with the restoration. 👍👍👍

[@joeholloway1386]

Nice build, details and paint job 👍👍

[@jack0cat]

What an awesome color. It was like that blueish silver was cool then the pink was really cool and then the purple omg then a couple more coats bam!! I remember having this car what a throw back in my memory banks. 👍❤️

[@thebaconbrotato]

You could say that this restoration is... Poppin'.

[@DiecastResurrection]

Thanks for being a regular here in the comments bro

[@thebaconbrotato]

@@DiecastResurrection you bet

[@rickpatman628]

That looks so much better than the original. As usual right out of the ball park

[@206dave]

Came out nice, I did kinda like the pink before you sprayed the blue on it too

[@2meterPeter.]

Those taillights were the bomb!

[@daverlb]

I had one of these as a kid. Only ever saw them in that original royal blue. I love the finished 2022 model!

[@adamjohnson4821]

Love that color.

[@KitFireburn]

Wow! This one turned out insane! From the base details all the way down to the paint job. Beautiful!

[@ChrisNLger]

You are a wizard man. Your paint jobs are the best!

[@user-ik5bm6nw9j]

i love that beetle paint job

[@HotRodsCustomsRacing]

Man that is super sweet!!

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

WOW WOW WOW . Awesome work . I also have one , in a number 5 condition with all the wheels on it since I was a kid . Great work as always , AWESOMENESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS........................ Mike .

[@kirchnerfarm]

That turned out amazing Austin...you smashed that!!!

[@164diecaststreet8]

Looks better than it ever has! What a gorgeous restoration. 💯 😎

[@neilcummings9939]

what an awesome color it turned out to be. sweet end result

[@TheLukanda]

I think the Snake would make a sweet rally car!

[@stevenwithanS]

I like the detaily bits on that. Good steady hand to pull that off.

[@DiecastResurrection]

The secret is whiskey..

[@DiecastResurrection]

Also the secret of how to have random numbers in your video is.. whiskey.

[@stevenwithanS]

@@DiecastResurrection lol. That's my secret

[@ranellbeavis6625]

Stunningly beautiful, really great work!

[@PostalTwinkie]

Blue and white on that fox body! The original Shelby color schemes on a Fox body has always been nice. Edit: It's always nice on any Cobra or Mustang.

[@stephenmagor4272]

Beautiful job, it looks fantastic. I really like your restorations of the Lesney Matchbox Superfast models.

[@scottwilson2959]

Beautiful colour!

[@valborchardt3596]

Greetings once again from South Africa…..that one turned out great, thanks

[@busterj9115]

The tail lights look great 👍 altogether job well done

[@demolitionman9307]

Excited to see that piston popper, yet so very sad, i had 2 of those Mustangs as a kid, i still have 1 left, but it's in a extremely poor condition. Unfortunately i was hard on my toys, most of my Hotwheels/Matchbox cars i destroyed, fire crackers. Gasoline, and a hammer lol. No wonder i ended up a Demolition Derby Driver. I have a few derby videos on my channel if anybody wants to take a peek, anyhoo, thanks for the awesome content, keep up the great work, all the best for 2022. Love from Australia.

[@jimcabezola3051]

Love the very fine details, not to mention the scrumptious colour!

[@jamesbeestman9382]

Beautiful car love the color

[@LegionOfWeirdos]

VERY nice!

[@dave499]

Looks fantastic! I have a piston popper on the shelf in need of some TLC. Loving the Hot Wheels and Matchbox restorations.

[@campbellcreekrundiecastrac9018]

loved this casting, wish i still had mine

[@onixfieroandscalemodelworks]

Love that color. Good job

[@Rollormotor]

that looks awesome, I am a big fan of the 70's Mach 1 and have several piston poppers. looks way better than new. thanks for sharing

[@shades360]

One of your best yet

[@marcroszyk5937]

Keep the snake. Gives it character

[@braunx25]

Great video. I love the details you painted and I love the color.

[@eduardogarcia8527]

I did have the same exact car!!! Looks awsome!!! Thanks!

[@zeldadiecastracing]

Awesome work bro,very nice

[@michaelsteyn5325]

That's a real nice paint job and you did the details perfect. Great restore!

[@paulvinco7185]

I absolutely love that one. The Mach I is my fav and you did it proud. Great stuff man! Peace.

[@automotiverenderings]

Nailed the color! Very very cool. Nice restoration+

[@keithmason9342]

Great job! I love the paint. It really looks custom. The detailing sets the bar just that much higher. Thanks for another spot on resurrection.

[@Gappasaurus]

Had a few Rolamatics back in the day, including a yellow Piston Popper. Always appreciated the extra play value they provided 😊 Had that Fast-111s King Cobra too, but in silver. Awesome restoration (as always! 😉) looking forward to the Cobra video 😎👍

[@llewis7324]

That color reminds me of Ford's Sonic Blue they used on the early 2000 mustangs.

[@jameshunt9130]

That poppers killer dude , you always amaze with your pair jobs an mixing to get great shades

[@dragonslayer19695]

Turned out very nice.

[@R1chardB1ngham]

Woohoo another 70's Matchbox getting the treatment! I really like this group of castings, Boss Mustang, IMSA Mustang, Piston Popper and Vantastic. I've even combined the Vantastic casting with the Piston Popper engine to make a Pistastic... Also should tell you that Kenner Fast 111s King Cobra actually became a Matchbox casting, the #74 Mustang GT. I have a spare Matchbox in my customising box but I'd love to find a Kenner version too.

[@raverboyloki]

This came out amazing! I was worried about the color when you originally sprayed it, but it dried perfectly to almost the original color. Great job!

[@daps559]

I like the idea of doing the stripes on the fox body. The snake is rad but your paint jobs are killer. Popper is exhibit A.

[@tonykruebbe2364]

Turned out great my man!

[@markbosanko6656]

Beautiful detail 😍

[@kingyames]

The molotow sprays really nice through the air brush. Just putting it out in the universe

[@NitrousDiecast]

Looks good! 😁

[@scottflanagan7927]

Awesome again!

[@user-ik5bm6nw9j]

great job austin

[@shark.bait12]

What's up with the counter on the side of the screen? 1 and 2? Editing error or am I missing something? Love your videos and have been watching for years!

[@DiecastResurrection]

Total editing error I didn't see it until after you guys did. 😒😒

[@amd6570]

I can’t make myself customize or restore any of my Fast 111’s. RIP King Cobra 🐍😢. Piston popper turned out sweet!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@lennonjames3871]

Wow nice job brother haven't seen one of them in 45+ yrs 👍🥃✌

[@vorbert]

Damn Austin. Damn it again. One of my all-time favorite matchbox. And on the top of that, you've treated it with such a great respect. Even authentic to the real paint (pink layer at the bottom). It's so good to see that someone gives so much love to these awesome engineering creations. Bro you deserve the crown of the diecasters. You are the KING in my eyes. For the CPR Mustang you should redo the snake, but in a funny way, just like in case of Mike Tysons's van. Have fun with it, make a joke out of the whole episode. You are a great entertainer. Thanks for the effort man. Cheers

[@grahammummery5732]

Awesome work!

[@paulbeck6410]

Do the Mustang as a Cobra drag car.

[@michaelhughes3302]

That lil Piston Popper turned out delicious. Love the lighting and grill treatment. Just the right amount of custom work to really set it off. Cheers, Michael in Toronto.

[@dainsmart6237]

Mustang Sally the purple pony piston popper ye haaa go Sally go 🇬🇧✌🏻❤️👍🏻

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Very nice work as always Lee

[@kellymcmanaway4069]

Pimp!! You should do that Green cobra in a black and gold stripes.

[@MCDJACDC]

Great work Amigo 👏

[@ironknife1]

Definitely do a fox body cobra!!!

[@burning-chrome]

fantastic restoration!

[@johnrossnixon131]

Nice paint job

[@andyladds374]

Looks great!!

[@ItsMeMarioJr]

I have one of these, in good condition. Great restore, man.
