    REDLINE HOT WHEELS RESTORATION - Aqua Lola GT70 - Zinc Plating. Today I perform a restoration on a beautiful Hot Wheels Lola GT70 that was released in 1969. This car required multiple zinc plating applications to try reduce the number of deep scratches on the car. I spent a long time working on it, I hope you enjoy the video!

      Hey how’s it going? Been watinching the channel for about a year now. I love the content. I was wondering though if I could make a suggestion for a build. Since you did the hoonicorn could you maybe do the hoonitruck? Hope to see it someday. Keep up the great work.

    • @jlr1569
      @jlr1569 Před 2 lety

      @diecast resurrection I'm not certain why you did not plate the base at the same time as the body? they both would have been plated well from new. of course the level of polish is not as necessary as the body bc there is no paint used. also using cleaned-up orig wheels are better looking than the repros. like the work tho. thx

    I'm 34 and exclusively collect redlines. I inherited a large collection from my father many many years ago and have been addicted since. I used to be able to find them for reasonable prices but in the last 5 or 6 years the prices gave skyrocketed! Even banged up cars cost $25-$75 depending on the model. I love watching your retso videos. You seem super down to earth and genuine. Keep doing what you do!

    Your Lola looks awesome. I restored my Lola from childhood don't remember what happened to it. it lived a tough life apparently. I don't have a zinc setup but I got the tone off by dipping it in lime-away.

  • @CAT-yk3tz
    @CAT-yk3tz Před 2 lety

    This Lola came out very nice original looking. Great job.
    Although these are hard to find, check this out, Hot Wheels got the demensions wrong in reference to the wheels.
    A `66 Lola T70 (like all Lolas) are low to the ground (or Track). So only about a ¼ of the tire is below the chasis.
    Hot Wheels has a whole ½ a tire clearance.
    Here the trick (and I don´t know why) if you reverse the chasis (upside down and forward to back) Yeah it sounds crazy but it lowers the wheels to the ¼ of the tire clearance to the road. Looks great.
    (Note: needs some tweeking).
    Another way to lower the wheels on this Lola is since the wheels are on independent axles, you can put a shim between the axles and the chasis. That will lower the wheels closer to the road.

    How about a custom 69 chevelle street drag car. Have it tubbed out? But you make it that way? Cut the base out and everything to fit the tires. I love your show btw... it's got me into trying this kind of stuff out. I've always collected hotwheels but never customized any. Ty for showing everyone how this is done.

    Excellent restoration job! Really spot on and the little fella looks absolutely stunning. The Lola GT70 first appeared in the Grand Prix series in 1969 in which was my all-time favorite Hot Wheels car; the Splittin' Image. This was also the time when Mattel started outsourcing the production of Hot Wheels to a Hong Kong factory.

    Do the 1982 Dodge Rampage! It’s a fwd car AND a pick up truck at the same time. The back has a cool little bike molded in the back too. I personally would like to see some “black wall” wheels on it.

    Just some ideas for your uploads.
    Muscle car Mondays ( Any type of muscle car weather it’s vintage or modern)
    Wacky build/restoration Wednesdays (random weird vehicles you build or restore)
    Freestyle Fridays ( you build what ever but have custom paint jobs where you just go with the flow or maybe even take ideas from fans.

    @kingmccoy9526 Před 2 lety

    What would be cool is if you got 4 or 5 of the same redline cars and do a step by step on each car so the first would be like before you start to restore it and stop on each step so you have a visual of each step as a showcase so from step 1 to finish

    The nail polish seems like little sister revenge to me. My hubby (who I've known for 54 years) shaved his sister's Barbies heads so in revenge we painted all of cars in pastel cheapo 70s paint.
