Redline Restoration: 1969 Hot Wheels Custom Volkswagen Beach Bomb

In this quick restoration i will restore a 1969 Hot Wheels Custom Volkswagen Beach Bomb side loader. This is a much more common car than the rear loading beach bomb that I did a custom of some months back. big thanks to Sean Ford for sending me this and many other cars!!

[@MsMsmak]

One can only imagine the hours of play time that these cars enjoyed.

[@kennydemartini2169]

I could watch baremetalHW videos all day long....

[@pswitch9553]

Is it because he has a Galaxy Note8?

[@ACTIVEGAMER298]

I could but it gets repetitive because I’ve seen EVERY video still up on his channel

[@chevys1016]

Kenny DeMartini same

[@BlasersGarage]

Kenny DeMartini I’ve actually done it lol

[@kennydemartini2169]

I think I find these so fascinating because I restore old cars for a living, and I never had Hotwheels as a kid because my parents couldn't afford them. I got an occasional Tootsie Toy instead.

[@iamelvisman68]

I think this is one of your best spectraflame jobs yet honestly

[@UnprofessionalFlip]

Man. You really made that thing look like a million bucks. I love the yellow and am very glad you chose it.

[@dewexdewex]

I can't stop watching your videos. They're so cool.

[@michaelperrenoud894]

Never too shiny!! Turned out fantastic.

[@denniswilhoite6715]

Yellow spectra flame rocks this one - another beautiful job

[@alanraylocklear1117]

This one is by far my favorite restoration I've watched on your channel. I like the yellow spectraflame. It has a gold look to it. Keep up the restorations.

[@josephlowry4320]

It looks an bit greenish but other than that it looks awesome.

[@astrogoodvibes6164]

Slick finish on this piece mate. Yellow pops as well. Thanks for another stellar tute.

[@monsterhobbies]

I really like your videos where the Hotwheel is really broken with missing wheels and bent pillars and missing items. At the end of the video, you work pure magic! It's amazing! :D

[@JMc.D]

For what you started with that is a remarkably good result. Well done.

[@Andrew-ib7us]

Enjoy watching your hotwheels restos you achieve a good finish these redline hotwheeks are fetching a high premium

[@WilliamofMunich]

2:37 Its funny seeing the lint on one of the wheels. It means he was just like me as a kid when I carried them everywhere in my pocket.

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

William Austin I would have just smashed that up with a hammer. Not worth messing around with.

[@66chevylongbed13]

Mine had lint from the blanket "mountain's" me and my brother made. Lmao

[@bcc9563]

i still have hotwheels 1977-2018

[@lisacarter7654]

Great job!! If I had to pick my favorite out of this Beach bomb and the rear loading beach bomb, I would pick the rear loading one. Loved the color!

[@JDGooch-wp1yk]

I actually like the paint, it looks terrific. There are so many hot wheels out there that I haven't seen. Keep up the great work.

[@lysander.o.c.3580]

The new colour looks lemony fresh

[@joeboo5400]

Brings back memories. Very good job sir

[@mtpleasantmadman7648]

Amazing job! Spectraflame cars can never be too shiny! You and the Redline shop have inspired me to start my own redline restorations .

[@cookcars1]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I love these old Beach Bombs. I have since I was a kid. Fantastic job!

[@garymanning8920]

I like it ...agree the sideboard panel needed better engineering...enjoy your restorations great way to pass the evening while surfing the net.

[@theexplodingpineapple6464]

Your videos calm me down when I'm mad because it's cool to look at how the car will look after you restore it, and your voice is calming. So PUHLEASE keep doing what you do!

[@therealderjett]

There is no such thing as too much shine when you're doing a redline your car's always look incredible.Thank you again for another great video.

[@MrPappysCobra]

Looks great! Lucky guy to get it back restored.

[@fatloser7244]

That guy is really gonna be happy when he gets that in the mail.

[@mikeswan260]

You do absolutely amazing work.

[@GuitardedAndBroke]

Your welcome for all the goodies!! Thank you for the amazing and surprise restoration!! I have the pink rear loader you made right up front of my display case and will put this BB right next to it.

[@robrfoster]

You're*

[@youngchris1196]

how did you get the rear loader

[@thedungeondelver]

You know, I just gotta say, as a guy who grew up playing with hot wheels cars as a kid, this is fascinating. I mean, my wheelhouse is vintage D&D gaming, computers as a hobby, etc., but I would never really get into hot wheels restoration or collecting...but man your videos are great. I enjoy watching you bring these things back to life! Thanks!

[@georgeshelton6281]

This Hot Wheels toy van, never had any decals. It looks pretty sophisticated.

[@scottyancer6781]

I just started to watching these hotwhells being rebuilt. I wish that I saved a few when I was kid.please keep up the great works

[@sarahmathias9463]

I like the sideloader! It looks like a custom widebody bus!

[@thunder230mph6]

Looks better than the original rear-loader, that's for sure! I hope Mattel will bring this one back one day, it was re-released at one point but unfortunately it was a RLC Exclusive only :(.

[@Dirks_NUMA_Files]

It amazes me how well you can get the bodys to clean up. BRAVO!

[@JamsTomatoReviews1]

I think it looks really good and I can't wait to see what the next few restorations look like.

[@vernhoke7730]

I had one of these, in this exact color as a kid. Cool!

[@mhansen52]

Beautiful work on your part! The before and after is amazing.

[@LouCooper]

Looks fantastic, looks great with the extra shine.

[@topfuel6824]

Great 👍🏻 job beautiful work i too love 💕 the spectraflame colors

[@michaellubatti1534]

This has quickly become one of my favorite KZbin channels. Great stuff

[@colefreddy1]

I love these kind of restoration videos, greetings from The Netherlands

[@TheStevenc819]

Great job on the Beach Bomb

[@MLife1972]

Besides watching the restoration, I love the history lesson on some of these cars. Great stuff. Please keep up the great work!

[@Toyhound09]

Awesome job on this redline restoration.

[@revzillo]

Came out well in the end, nice restoration job 👍

[@TheDamnoranges]

This is the best redline restoration finish I've seen you achieve so far. Looks like you finally figured out the best prep work for the ZAMAC. Great!

[@wastelander138]

I am not a collector or interested in collecting or restoring these cars but I find the work you do interesting and quite relaxing. It's just nice seeing something that is clearly on the edge of being junk, being brought back to looking almost like new.

[@TaxedtoXXX]

thanks for posting. your skills have just progressed so well since you started these videos.

[@jaypastorek4283]

Beautiful restoration!

[@nekojita5150]

Fun color choice, it feels right for this piece.

[@MechaFenris]

That really is a fabulous color... I am not usually a fan of yellow... but that's a good one!

[@Oneklickmedia]

Perfect! Restoring my first redline van so you helped a lot

[@preston121068]

Looks great, I'm sure Sean will be pleased to have this in his collection.

[@davidhopson729]

Yellow wouldn't have been my first choice but it looks good. Great job.

[@OOOHBILLY]

Sloppy design on their part but they must have more worried about the bottom line than the red one...lmao Great work!

[@thomasletkewicz752]

I really like that paint color for some reason. Nice job!

[@1973Washu]

Better than new. Even the damage done in the factory was fixed.

[@adanzilla]

Probably the best restoration on you CHANNEL!!!! AMAZING

[@WhatIsKenDoing]

I wish you posted new videos everyday. I love watching your restorations.

[@deannoland6454]

Looks very nice, as always! I love watching you restore or modify any HW!

[@SalamandarJones]

now this looks good. awesome work.

[@leosypher9993]

It almost looks like a service body pickup with the side pannles, but with a vw bus type vehicle of course, i like the look of it

[@DrifterD]

About what you said in the end, I think I prefer this over the rear loading version. I have the RLC version of this casting which comes with 4 surfboards which is pretty sweet if you ask me :)

[@nitrospeed2513]

Awesome restoration 👍

[@grahampickering1560]

Badass resto! 😎

[@vernhoke7730]

Hey! I had one that exact color back in the day, complete with flower stickers too.

[@joeym6730]

Nice color choice. It turned out great!

[@boerharms2209]

ohh thats a great colour! Another nice one.. Sean is lucky to have it :)

[@randynovick7972]

I very much liked this one. Yellow was an excellent choice. Nice work as always.

[@andrewsmith1520]

Awesome work! Love you videos.

[@MrHW1968]

Man, that looks awesome 👍😉

[@DerthDeboblo]

Once again, another great restoration. Happy (belated) New Year!

[@THE_HW_MASTERS]

amazing restoration as Always!!! ;)

[@simonacuthbert1]

Another interesting resto with fascinating insights into the history of this particular model. I agree, the side extensions looked horribly botched; definitely a 'quick fix' that ruined the overall aesthetic. I'd loved to have been a fly on the wall during the meeting when that gigantic cock up was revealed. Thanks for producing and sharing your skills in another of your videos, it was an extremely enjoyable watch.

[@NitrousDiecast]

Great video, I really enjoyed it!

[@casasecure2419]

Wowzers, great job 👍

[@Beautifulmusiclistnr]

Your videos are terrific! Please keep making them! Thank you!

[@newcomerjason7791]

Great job! Love your videos

[@thehotwheelshunter]

I agree about not caring much for the side loading Beach bomb the original was much better amazing job awesome video thanks

[@brianrichards8013]

Looks sick awesome job

[@JimCars]

Wooow this beach bomb its really nice and spectraflame yellow paint looks cool, absolutelly great piece and great job, congrats master

[@daddynutz024]

Another great job. Thanks

[@DannyBoy-vg6kp]

Another brilliant restoration! Happy new year🎉

[@mladtheimpaler]

This was a very nice restoration!

[@nowaydudehuh8145]

SWEET! Came out! nice bro! Great job! Very cool!😎👍✌

[@MyAztecs]

Awesome work man 👍👍👍👍👍

[@Unfunny_Username_389]

Oh yeah - sweet. I have a dark blue one my Gran bought me from her holiday in Weston Supermare in iirc 1977. It's still in ex cond because I treasured it so much - Hot Wheels were quite rare in the UK at that time. She also got me a Boss Hoss and the Mongoose dragster. That third one got so much love it actually didn't survive - but the other two are just fine. One of the Beach Bomb's surf boards has lost a fin though. : - /

[@bikesandbeyond618]

Love the color choice!

[@thereallantesh]

You did an amazing job on this one, and definitely picked the perfect color for it. I agree with you about the sides though. They do look a bit odd.

[@matthewdavis3095]

Amazing job, then again they always are.

[@dannymontoya1235]

Looks bad ass to me wish I had one. Thanks dude!

[@jayr5331]

Another great job!

[@sdy0108]

Coolest resto job iv ever seen

[@angelahoward3767]

Great work!

[@opgaquatics5609]

Awesome video as always!

[@donchamberlain3061]

Wow. Great job.

[@lylespriggs1838]

The shinier the better to me That Busch polish does a very very good job of polishing. Work with it on other spectra flame projects that's the key to spectraflame to me that super polished mirror look I Love it!!

[@351xb1973]

I have to say you do some amazing work. Watching your earlier videos compared to now you can really see how your technique and skills have improved. This resto looks fantastic. I'm so tempted to go grab some old hot wheels or matchbox cars and have a go at doing this.

[@baremetalHW]

+351xb1973 you should!!

[@roboticvenom1935]

Love it! Keep it up

[@The944S2]

Awesome resto ! Keep the great vids coming buddy.

[@martamiaskiewicz9490]

Im impressed. That damage and that new quality. I could send you my matchbox mercy

[@wrobel311]

I love your videos, my only wish is that they were longer and more in-depth!

[@prentissmoody2899]

love it hope to add one to my collection someday
