    You win the build off, definitely more attention to detail.

    • @C.CUMM1NGS

      Started with a much better car, so had a lot less work to do.

    • @Sennaxm71
      @Sennaxm71 Před 4 lety +2

      @@C.CUMM1NGS I don't completely agree, because they both strip back to bare metal, so effectively a blank canvass, it's the details that make it.

    when you said, " remember your lubrication. you don't want to snap your piece off in any holes", I almost fell out of my chair.haha really enjoy your videos.

      @madmax0814 Před 5 lety +3

      Both fantastic builds, especially when you consider the snotbox Danny started with 😮 Well done guys, may have to have a go myself since you make it look so easy....

    • @connierosario9474
      @connierosario9474 Před 5 lety +2

      Yeah, but yours was a total disaster at the start. Totaled windscreen, gobs of paint and dust, rivets not screws. You did really well with what you had to work with.

    • @EvilRedjack
      @EvilRedjack Před 4 lety +1

      loved this build, and i have to say, the test drive at the end was fantastic, great audio, my 7 year old self was totally there lol....

  • @lonewolf6364
    @lonewolf6364 Před 5 lety +25

    Whilst I like this build, Danny definitely had a tougher/more damaged/worn/aged car to work with.

    Having come here from Danny’s RS build, I these build offs are a great idea and good fun. Of the two I think yours is the nicest, great work!

  • @Nemoticon
    @Nemoticon Před 5 lety +1

    Danny did well to revive his car from what it was... but your RS2000 is just perfect. A great build off, something I think you guys should do again.

  • @Petrolhead350cui
    @Petrolhead350cui Před 5 lety

    My favorite you did. Great with details and decals. Clear coat protects the decals. Always did that on my 1/50 lorrys.

  • @davidlockwood9192
    @davidlockwood9192 Před 5 lety

    Love watching these vids. Lots of hard work and great result. Though have to say that I love the bare metal look when you first strip off all the paint from a model and you can see all the detail. Very cool,look! Great work.

  • @Microman504
    @Microman504 Před 5 lety +2

  • @Noactualdirection
    @Noactualdirection Před 5 lety +1

    Loved the RS as a kid,
    I always said my first car would be one of them.
    I actually had to settle for an N Reg 1.3 L. (KCX 912N)
    I did have Rostyles, quarter bumpers and a vinyl roof though!
    And so many brake lights that when you hit the anchors the drain in power alone slowed you down!!
    Oh and a bloody good video mate.

  • @stephaniewright4336
    @stephaniewright4336 Před 3 lety

  • @siccmade425
    @siccmade425 Před 5 lety

    I'm gonna say, your paint, and decal detail is a 10. Danny did his best, and it was good (working with a bigger mess), but your additional attention to detail, was something to aspire to.

  • @turbolivesinmyheart6328

    Lots of attention to detail. That roll cage looks pretty cool. Didn't think that color was too good at first, but at the end it looks great. Thumbs up all day. 👍

    @ZodZulu Před 4 lety

    Amazing what you did with the casting! Wheels look like they came off a current Matchbox.

    Brilliant details - love these build offs and it keeps things fresh. 👌

  • @markcox1028
    @markcox1028 Před 4 lety +2

    Edit: "a couple of joiny bits" is the correct, Industry standard wording.

  • @mr.sideburns2031
    @mr.sideburns2031 Před 5 lety

    Love the attention to detail as always, the roll cage was a nice addition. Great color too.

  • @losingmyfavoritegame8752
    @losingmyfavoritegame8752 Před 5 lety +9

    That car looks like it came out of Pull-A-Part: a local junk yard in the US where I reside. The car is just a shell stripped of wheels and with rust in place of paint. The glass is always there since at all the junk yards I've seen the glass is always there unless it was broken in an accident.

  • @jorgerodriguez1102

  • @martinsmith8417
    @martinsmith8417 Před 5 lety

    Perfect, you totaly nailed that, i knew you,d do something like that, i declare you the winner!

  • @accaliamurraymusic
    @accaliamurraymusic Před 5 lety +1

    That turned out beautiful! I really like the effort you put into the interior. It adds a ton more realism. I also really appreciated the time you spent on the number plates.
    To me, the wheels you chose look like the style that Matchbox developed and began using say, 10 years ago. 2007 or 2008? I remember the wheels becoming better and more realistic around that date range.he number plates.

  • @garethgreenhalgh8487
    @garethgreenhalgh8487 Před 4 lety

    This was definitely the winner and it looks really good the only thing i would change would be the spoiler in black. But it still looks nice.

  • @terribelbliss9646
    @terribelbliss9646 Před 5 lety

    They look like wheels from a Hotwheels car. Another great job, you seem to be getting better as you go along. Live and learn. 😄👍

  • @torballs
    @torballs Před 5 lety +1

    You did good work. I'm not trying to take that away from you. I liked it as it was. Maybe with wheels added but make it look a little more worn and rusty. Again, your version was great.

    @michaelnewitt191 Před 5 lety

    Pulling its own trailer?? But it's a really sweet build. You can see that a lot of time and effort and love has gone into it. The blue colour is amazing. One of the best customs I've seen for quite a while.

    You spanked em bro! He made a great effort, his rear seat delete and rustic “dark wash” tactic looked great! Buuuuuut, your car looks like it belongs in a museum! Beautiful! Great craftsmanship. First vid I’ve seen, and I’m subbing! If you can, do some more “all out” builds... why not an RV or semi truck?

    @paulorth2251 Před 5 lety
