Redline Restoration: 1969 Whip Creamer

In this video I clean up a 1969 Redline Whip creamer.

Put your initials on all your cars. When you die your collection will be worth more than any of the collectors out there because you are truly an artist.

[@jaydoesanything7652]

Muttly One having initials on it would lower the value.

Restoring something *>* letting it rot away for the sake of "value" You're doing great man, ignore the naysayers.

The HolyWafflePowder hot wheels are meant to be affordable but many idiot collectors over valued some of them , ruins the fun for all

[@dom_the3166]

Kelly Dunois The older ones can be worth hundreds, true, maybe not hotwheels, but other old toy cars can be worth a LOT of money.

[@hybridAbsol]

ɖơɱ_ ɬɧɛ just becuz it looks like it can bring that kind of value doesnt mean they should sell it that way :(

[@dom_the3166]

Kelly Dunois If it's worth a lot of money, then it's worth a lot of money, why should they not sell them? They own them and have the right to do as they please with them.

i love the concept of restoration, brings the aged cars back to their former glory.

[@MrLowdog5]

Here's my take on redline restorations, the 250+ Cars that I have restored over the past 3 years have not cost me more than $4 each. And since they were not worth much to the person I bought them from, It gives me the pleasure of bringing a car back to life to display. And it gives me a sense of accomplishment by giving a car that was virtually worthless a second chance. Now for the nay-say'ers that say this is wrong and should not be done, I say to them. Its my car and I can do what I want with it, Just as a kid in the 60s did when they got it. My kids know what cars are original and what cars are restored in my large collection. If, and when they have to sell them. They are smart enough and honest enough to ensure they are sold as stated. Any Redline collector knows a restored from a original. Anything beyond that, all I can say is "DO YOUR HOMEWORK" and Buyer beware....Just my 2cents...

Most people don't know the whip creamer's orange turbine is a whistle.

[@ontariotube]

Well mine's full of spit now.. but no whistle, LOL.

[@SupercarGarageUSA]

Do you have a display area for your cars? would be cool to see all your cars together in a video. also, I think what you are doing is very important, you are an artist.

[@thecreativecardinalbyl.bet7012]

I love that you restore old toys. It's very satisfying!

[@Fromard]

I really love these videos. I'm not a collector but something about these videos relaxes me. If I've had a crappy day I'll watch 2 or 3 then I feel better.

[@janbaer3241]

Does selling restored full-sized cars ruin their value? If so, I want to purchase a worthless fully restored Auburn or Delahaye.

[@KlingonCaptain]

Absolutely, I would love a worthless restored DeLorean. :-)

[@Karmy.]

I want a worthless restored 1958 Edsel :)

[@lolkingrd440]

I want a Datsun 240z👀

[@ImponteDeluxo]

Well , i want a worthless bugatti royale

[@docmopar1183]

It depends on the car really

[@bgdavenport]

I'm a restorer, too. I enjoy recreating/repairing toys using 3D printing. In your case, the only use you would have for 3D would be to repair a damaged-beyond-repair interior. Your plating videos have been especially informative!

[@1teamski]

Ultimately, you do what makes YOU happy, not anyone else. I personally think your restoration jobs are awesome.

[@kenkenobi9448]

You bought it, you own it, do whatever you want with it. Plus you're good at what you do👍

[@damienjohn]

I am obsessed with your channel - and this is coming from someone with no history with collectibles or restoration etc. Keep up the great work!

[@the_kroncraft_show4227]

at the end of the day it's *YOUR* hobby which in this case is restoring and customizing die cast metal cars, If their hobby is just collecting that's fine. I guess what I'm trying to say is let people enjoy things that make them happy.

[@falconator87]

Keep restoring, it’s what you enjoy and it inspires people like myself to try, refine and learn from these vids. Great jobs!

[@astrogoodvibes6164]

Neat cleaning job and another excellent video. You have an extraordinarily easy to listen to teaching manner. Thank you Sir.

[@dougnapoltes1036]

I used to own the same Whip Creamer in the same color when I was a kid. Love that car because it had the turbines that turned. Anyway, as someone who does some mild detailing to his own Hot Wheels, Matchboxes, Tomica, etc., I say do what you want that makes you happy. I really enjoy watching your videos!

[@revzillo]

Nice simple restoration job, I like it .... I don't care what other people think with their negative thoughts, the main thing is you get the pleasure of doing these yourself. Some people need to stop being so negative and look at the positive side of restoring these great little cars !

[@dustbeans]

I personally won’t restore vintage toys as I love to look at their playwear and imagine what the toy has been through, but also see nothing wrong with other people restoring them. Like you said, it’s yours do what you want with it. Love your videoes and that last one with the printer decals was perfect for a project I’m working on. Keep ‘em coming!

[@eastcoastandloveit3857]

I say keep doing what your doing. You are teaching us all so much . Happy holidays !.

[@johnnyratliff3881]

you're awesome you're bringing back history and plus you're collector and when you collect it's a passion thank you for your video and you've done some good jobs on restoring these babies

[@countryboyq]

I personally like what you are doing. I enjoy watching the videos and seeing how beautiful these old cars can be once again. I am in your camp with the idea that its your car and you can do with it as you wish. Keep up the good work.

[@frankjauregui6579]

I love what you do to all the cars you restore, enjoy watching the restorations and listening to all the proses that goes into restoring all of them. Keep it up!

[@mikeypops73]

Very interesting video. Didn't realize this stuff was sacrilegious to some people?!?

[@spencerbacon]

I️ love your videos, please never stop these restorations, customs, mad max, their great. I️ can’t wait for your next mad max video!

[@jellifish6098]

I love these restorations. Great vid!

[@ramrodhare4700]

I enjoy your videos and I'm all for restoring toys. most of the "collectors" who are against it are interested in value and profit. Toys were made to play with. If an old toy is worn and showing it's age, most people will throw it away. By restoring it, you give it a second chance to be enjoyed. I'd much rather see vintage toys restored and enjoyed than tossed out as trash. If that pisses off some people, well, they can just get over it. I like toys for what they are, not how much I can sell them for.

[@drycereal1]

I have no interest in Matchbox cars, but since watching your first video, I've binged them all. These are highly enjoyable! Thanks!

[@Threetails]

I didn't think much of these restored ones, but I recently checked and even restored ones are going for up to $120 on eBay and Etsy. The sellers aren't passing them off as mint or original either; a well-restored vintage diecast apparently has value.

[@victoriaevelyn3953]

as much of an antique time peice an old toy is and a good prop for a scene theres something therapeutic and amazing seeing a once old well played with toy come back to life sure it might never see play time again but i love watching these videos so calming and enjoyable makes me want some of mine back to their former glory i dont get some peoples ways saying its destroying history or making them worthless in my eyes its got merit

[@RiverasHotWheels]

Looks great! Never knew you can simply dip the whole casting in the electro polishing solution you have. Very impressed with the results. These type of restorations sell good to the right buyer. Would I buy one for $35? I won't because I'm not into them, but I'm damn sure someone will. Good work as always. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@estebancortez6391]

Your videos are great and restoring cars is a great hobby Im working on a sweet 16 set myself redline shop will be getting alot of my business soon lol

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Great video as usual! I think you should only do what is necessary to get the car to the condition you desire. However, I love watching the full restorations because of the wide variety of customization options and you can let your creativity loose to make some awesome looking cars.

[@JimBales]

Big fan of yours. Love what you are doing with these cars. Keep it up.

[@chrispate9855]

it's real nice to restore any & everything especially vehicles because you can learn a great deal from them when you break them down completely you can make them better then they were when they was produced from the first time

[@indianawxbuff3186]

Love your videos. Thanks for sharing!

[@ChrisWEarly]

Found my box of old hot wheels this past week, and found my oldest is a 1991 Pennzoil release of the 1982 Firebird funny car. Really keen on refurbishing it after seeing all these vids :)

[@racerm50]

I enjoy your videos. It looks like a great hobby.

[@mattypow82]

If the car would end up in the trash do to it's condition your doing us all a service and I also agree with the point you made it is your car and you do what you damn well please! Keep the videos coming I've only been customizing a little under a year and have learned a great deal from your channel thanks

[@scottjohnston1980]

Very relating to watch, almost like therapy 👌👌 great job

[@GalbreathSQuin]

I feel that restoration is good, as long as the restorer restores the object using the same tecniques / materials that were used originally to make it. However I do frown upon "restorers" who don't take time to do something correctly, half-ass the job, and cheap out on materials. I do appreciate the people who are at least trying to make something better, even if it's not the way it should be. You do quality work, making sure the car looks and shines like new! Escpecially using the same style of air-brushed spectra flame paint as the original, insteaed of cheaping out with a rattle can!

[@tvdb7446]

Love the restoration vids!! It's cool to watch!!!

[@jamesswartz9309]

It seems that most of us here have a positive attitude about the procedures you are performing on your vehicle's. I hope this keeps you inspired enough to keep making great videos and reminding some of us of our childhoods and the great times we had playing with these cars. My time was from the mid 70's to early 80's. May i request that you customize a car of your choosing from this Era? Thank you for your time, knowledge and hard work you put into these videos. Its very much appreciated!

[@luishiracheta5671]

I would like to see a video of 007 restoration cars. Your the best man!!!

[@jimmymitchell2474]

Love your vids. This car looks fantastic

[@michaelreece458]

Fantastic video! I wasn't sure if the whole car could be dipped to de-oxidize the base without damaging everything else, thanks for showing that I need not be concerned about that. And, I say restore away! They're your cars to do as you please and once you die.....well it's not like you restored Leonardo da Vinci's Salvatore Mundi.....they're toy cars for Chrissakes that go thru different iterations with different owners! Notwithstanding, your restorations are careful and superb, not some hack job.

[@chevelle65wgn]

I like the restored cars. If I can restore actual cars I should look into restoring the small replicas. Keep up the awesome work.

[@SalRJr]

If you truly love old HW and Matchbox cars, you are doing them a great honor by restoring them to their former glory, I myself am trying to collect the original "16" if I have to restore them so be it...your videos are a great help on how to accomplish this to at least make them look proper for display which is my goal anyway...

[@scottg9481]

You are doing a great job with these cars. In my mind these cars are already modified by being played with so make them shine.

[@dph49]

I think your work is amazing and if/when you move on from this, there will be a whole separate appreciation for cars of this nature and people will be able to distinguish between the expertly restored and original cars. Also THESE are the cars ppl will look to many years from now to get an idea on what they once were.

[@user-wb3lr3vz4h]

Hello from Greece nice job you are doing! ! Congratulations

[@TediI47]

I personally buy and don't restore my diecasts no matter how rough shape they are in. That said, i would love to get into modifying or fixing up some broken ones thanks to yours truly. When a car is super rare, i would refrain from touching it. Touching up parts of the car without changing out or permanently altering the original material is fine. If it was possible to change out an intact part of an original car with an original substitute without further damaging any part of the first one, i see no harm.

[@performa9523]

I'm always blown away that Hotwheel cars are "worth" much of anything, old or not. It's immensely satisfying to me to see something old and beat up get renewed- if you have something, and indeed the power and knowledge to make it nice, why not? My 2 cents on it.

[@1sixscalecrafter351]

Hey baremetalHW, Good day to you and wishing (Us All) a very Happy Thanks Giving with your loved ones. This Redline Restoration: 1969 Whip Creamer turned out GREAT! Excellent Job! I'm an old 1963 model myself. lol Been restoring me for a long time. HAHAHA. Thank you for sharing your time, talents, tips, great ideas, knowledge, and super smart fun videos. Take care, keep on doing what you love to do, be creative, have fun, and have a wonderful Holiday weekend. Peace & Joy. (edit: I like and share always, but I felt I wanted to comment.) Thank you once again. back to more videos :P

[@chemcody5119]

I do not collect Hot Wheels because of their value. I buy them because I loved them as a child and it takes me back to that very special time in my life. I was very pleased to find your channel and I really like your approach to this classic toy line.

Oh man it’s always the same. People telling other people what to do, while the do nothing. “You can’t restore your (real) car like that!” But they won’t spend all they money to save junk cars. Keep on rolling Best wishes from Berlin city

[@chocochipthepug1]

After I die, I think I'm just going to pass down my collection to my kids. They could do whatever they like with them, like open and play with them, or start their own collection, and just add on to my old collection. I think it doesn't matter to me, because I would be dead anyways.

[@jammygamer8961]

lovely idea. My plan for when i die is to have mine sent away to a museum so everyone can enjoy it for as long as humanity stands

[@truantray]

The purists are behaving like these are Faberge eggs or something and need to get a life.

[@jammygamer8961]

i don't count this as a restoration i actually class this as a way of prolonging its life span

[@BambiTrout]

Jammy Gamer Exactly. It would be like refusing to take your car to the mechanic when it stops working because you would be reducing its value by modifying it. I get the instinct to stop people "destroying history", but he is literally preserving it by making it last longer. Most famous paintings have been restored multiple times over the years, but art collectors never seem to complain, and most mint condition antiques are only in such mint condition due to regular upkeep by their past owners.

[@PapiDoesIt]

I had one of these in 1969! Most people don't realize it's a whistle. Just open the canopy slightly and blow hard.

[@ScottClevelandmi]

Most of your full restorations are getting new life to something that is otherwise complete garbage. You rarely ever hit them with the exact match reproduction color. It’s clear of your cars of been restored based on the rivets that of been drilled out. I don’t think any serious collector would mistake them as originals. As I stated before you’re getting new life to garbage. No harm no foul. Paint on! This is awesome.

[@TPoirier]

[@scottmills2627]

Nice job mate In my opinion they are your cars to do what you want with them and you make them better and you never claim the are original so keep on doing it Myself I work on super fast matchbox cars and similar era corgi as they are cheap amid plentiful in the uk

I used to take old BMW motorcycles and build cafe bikes out of them. I found out over the years that the people who were offended we're the ones who did not have the tallent or energy to restore or customize a bike themselves. Keep up the good work,patina just means lazy.

[@woodchoppershollowcustompa993]

Keep doing it! It's your car do as you please. I have restored a bunch of toys over the years. I never started buying redlines to make money!

[@MrLethal1986]

There is nothing wrong with restoration or customisation in my opinion. People will always have a appreciation of the time a person took to give a toy a new lease of life. There are people I think are daft for paying £100 upwards for fake prototypes from Malaysia but I don't bash them for it, if they want to pay daft money for what I can make for £10 it's up to them. At the end of the day they are toys and alot of them are going to end up in a land fill no matter if they are immaculate or broken. The car turned out really nice, haters gonna hate though.

[@alfonzo9000]

As far as Hobbies go I just say do what makes you happy and if having hundreds of tiny cars makes you happy then go for it. I never had any interest in Hot Wheel cars or just cars in general until I started watching your videos. This is a hobby that seems super accessible and very relaxing and I would absolutely love it if you made some sort of beginner's guide to restoring and collecting these. I'm sure there are other videos out there but I just like to hear it all from you since I enjoy your content so much. Keep up the amazing work!

I like these videos. Takes me back to my childhood and I see most of the cars I had. Sticker residue can be removed with WD40 if it is cheaper than the stuff you have used. :)

[@icenesiswayons9962]

Regardless of what others think. My feelings are that you have to stop aging in it's tracks, in the future who knows what type of rerestoration processes will be available. For instance the studs will be available to replaced and then rebraded/recrowed."That is in my workshop at this time" with no tell tale signs of ever being drilled out. Your saving a masterpiece of art that can't be replaced and the longer they go without some type of degradation retarding the worse these items will get until they are just hopeless!

[@robertmailloux3720]

Thx,I love your work like many others.Forget about cork sniffers.When I die ,all my collections will stay overground and will have no control on them.And frankly,I do not care.Life will go on as usual until the sun goes supernova and melt all diecast collections.

[@noed.martinez9358]

I agree it is better to restore the toys than to let them rot away. I say keep restoring and enjoy them toys. My little nephew and I just got into restoring tonkas and die casts and we love restoring them. it provides quality time with him and he loves the fact that i let him use the airbrush LOL. funny how it all began with an ugly a** rusted Tonka Truck found at a flea market. He loves that thing and we spend hours upon hours outside playing with it. so to hell with the haters because they are too ignorant to know any better. you kee[ making these great videos. both my nephew and i really enjoy them.

First of all. I enjoy your restoration videos. As for the naysayers. They really need to get over it. I enjoy trying to restore these old die-cast pieces too. And it's not done worrying about their value later on. Just my 2¢. 😁

[@SBDavin]

I appreciate your restorations! Fascinating stuff. If you end up fully restoring this car, I suspect removing the windshield will be tricky. I'll be interested to see how you "pull it off".
