The front mudguards made out of plastic wheels was a stroke of genius!
Awesome build ! Car from the tv show , The Prisoner with Patrick Mcgoohan .
Awesome transformation. The new car looks beautiful!.
This is the way Matchbox should have made it!! Great job!!
Great job. Good idea for the front mudguards.
The car looks amazing! Great job Danny.
Danny great job with your Customizing and Restoring work on that Matchbox Lotus Super 7 Awsome paintjob and detail work and great job Racing it at the Nordschleife .
Looks so much better like this; the originals had a kinda "go-kart" look about them. That was a clever trick, making the front arches out of wheels and painting the windscreen surround made a huge difference. Nice decals too, just finish it off perfectly.👍👌😁
I’m super impressed with this customization Danny. All of the details are impressive. Good job 👍. Thanks for posting the video.
Sweet! Love the old caterhams
Really nice. Love that orange with the new wheels.
Always had a soft spot for these, thank you for doing it justice!
wicked upgrade. looks way better now
Another awesome job. Brilliant idea for the front fenders
Wow, that's one of your best Danny!...wouldn't be at all surprised to see Matchbox doing a new version along similar lines in the near future...make sure they give you a cut!...great work fella!
this is one cool casting and you made it even cooler
Now that's a pretty good looking car. Well done mate! Well done! 👍
Great mod/update to the casting. Good one! Cheers
Another informative and exciting video. Love the end product and attention to detail with the seatsbelts and rim around the windscreen. It looks awesome.
Looks incredible Danny! It looks so much better than its original start. Have a great rest of your weekend
Looks absolutely beautiful! Not the most comfortable car though - I had a friend who had a Lotus Super 7 in the early 1980's, and the seats were basically, Land Rover seat squabs. That, and the firm suspension, meant that you felt every bump in the road. One small thing, as well: here, in the UK, 'Caterham' is said, generally as 'KAYTER-UM', in yet another example of English words written one way, and said another. It's almost as if we do it deliberately...🤔😆😆😆
I'd like to say you did a great job, but this turned out even better! It used to be a child's toy, but now it's a fine quality scale model.
WOW really nice job! I love the wheel fender trick! It came out awesome 👍💪🏁
Otra estupenda restauración personalizada obtenida con el Matchbox Lotus Super Seven circa 1971 - 1977,mis respetos y saludos desde Venezuela.💯🤘💯💯💯👍👍👍👍🙏🙏
Fantastic job down to the last detail. Looks awesome buddy
looks sweet! im starting to customize hot wheels
Excellent work!
That is a fantastic transformation, I love it 👍🏻😎
Looks so much better, those wheels arches are brilliant!
By far one of my all time favourite cares. I remember the Green and Yellow Lotus Patrick McGoohan always drove at the start of 'The Prisoner'. Gorgeous car! I'd even risk freezing to death if it meant driving round in this beauty.
Excellent transformation this model usually has the windscreen missing
Superb job sir! I was floored at the difference you made with the front fenders, really really cool. Need some BMF for on the mirrors to complete your Masterpiece!
WOW what a great new look , awesome .
SOOOO KOOOOOOLLLLLL . Very nice paint .
Magnificent 7 you build Danny! 👍👌💯
Hi. Beautiful custom remodel. Fun race. Thanks.
Just wow man, luv it 👍😎
Colour me all kinds of impressed with this one... brilliant! =)
Excellent custom danny
Super remake, looks great! 👍🏻😎 Love the racing bit too! 🍻🇨🇦
Nice restoration and paint job 👍👍
Nice restoration bro
Great build again! 😎
Like how you build those front fenders from HW wheels and that exhaust looks great as well as wheels.
Very nice decals and detailing.
Out of the many, many builds I've seen across loads of CZcamsrs, this has to be right up there, if not my most favourite. An amazing build!
It's true that is a really fun car
Nobody does it better 👌
fantastic race refit
awesome build
Nice one Danny, love the real life car, you've done it proud. Caterham (pronounced Cayterham) is a town in Surrey UK. Excellent track day cars.
Great custom build mate.. 👍👍🙂🙂
Excellent job
I What's a TV show called "How It's Made supercars" and it showed how they make these little beauties.
Great build!! Super job!
Very nice transition! Awesome details!
Nice work, Danny!
great little car
This model is the Lotus 7 series 4 (Caterhams version is based on the more popular and more classic looking series 3) good work
This was a really sweet custom, I love all the changes you made. Looks really great Danny. I was pulling for you there, too bad you couldn't get around that guy... Lol
Oh, my favorit boyhood car, used to be a proud member of my collection, at that tme....now, lost in time.😟😪👍👍
Very nice 👍 work an the end ☺️ was so cool 😎 love it Danny do. More Lee
It's very nice job 👍
Hello is perfect
I have that car great job
Cool
Absolutely love this one Danny. Obviously saw what it looked like in the thumbnail but didn't expect it to look like it did originally. Great work. Little bit of criticism tho. You are saying Caterham wrong. As a brit we say it as "cate erum" if that makes sense? Great video tho. 👍
Lovely job. It's not Caterham as in the animal but as in catering and the 'H' is silent
In the UK we pronounce caterham as if it rymes with catering.
That's some outstanding work and detailing. Your decals, do you sell them? I'm always looking for some good 64 scale decals for America made rods. Thanks for sharing your experience
I just print my own decals and I don't feel they are of high enough quality to sell. I post the decal designs on my Patreon tho so you can print your own. I am in the process of uploading more when I have free time.
Awesome build man... only problem was Matchbox must have had a misprint on the interior tubs the steering wheel was on the wrong side ! 🤔 lol
Britan like here has right hand drive. I think you can get both.
Oh I know I was just joking I had a friend that was from the UK and I always joke and say that Americans put the steering wheel on the wrong side
I somehow never liked this casting... now I know, why: the front fenders looked wrong.
lovely details all around, great colour and decals, and proper wheels make it look like it should have. :)
what engines did you put into the games' racers? looks like a Ford Kent 1600 to me; I think there is even a race series around those engines.
If you own a xbox360 original xbox you should get Project bathroom racing
its pronounced cay ter um
