Enjoyed this transformation into the dukes of hazard tow truck .The final finished model does you justice and it is a one off ,like the decals which give the finish touch along with the front bumper and towing chain ....excellent
Great job on this truck!! Terrific paint job! I can picture Cooter driving around the backroads of Hazzard county looking to give Ol' Boss Hogg a tow!! LOL
Great work, Danny!!!! My preference for any "diecast disaster" is a completely customized model, be it repainted a different color with Real-Riders-type wheels, or this with lots of icing on the cake....the big push bar across the front bumper and the custom hook. By chance, I was doing a tow truck today and looking for ideas for a "proper" hook for a tow truck, and there I go.....thank you for the inspriation for a chain and hook!!!!!!!!
That is a massive improvement! I like the customizing of it to Cooter's Tow Truck. The paint and the wheels look great. Thanks for sharing this neat build.
Got a real yearning to find one of these Dodge breakdowns, purely for its purpose as a wrecker towtruck. Been a real trial to find an original in reasonable condition. You did a nice job of customising this though 👍
That part you broke off and replaced, I believe is the bulkhead and those are the night lights/ cargo lights. Wasn't sure if you knew or not, but great custom work as always, wasn't sure about cutting the wheels but it worked, 😎 thanks for sharing...
Nice custom build. The paintjob looks beautiful. The rearwheels shouldn't stick out under the truckbed that looks false. The new wheels itself looks good. The final "Outdoorfotage" are as fine as always. I like that part of your clips the most.
yes yes very cool I like it I actually do have one of those old 62 or 3 Dodge tow truck I was thinking of some sort of restoration project to do with it
Very cool man, and it came out great! I think this is my fav build you've done thus far! Breaker one breaker one I may be crazy but I ain't dumb, crazy cooter coming at ya!
Great looking truck! I don't remember what Cooters truck looked like. But that one looks like Cooter is ready for a night on the town with those flashy rooms. The only thing that looks out of place is the cable. It looks too big.
....incidentally, the Dodge Wrecker is a classic example of where Matchbox might have gone wrong in that it didn't mix up the colors or liveries often. Today, you have a month to find something in the stores before it is essentially retired and that keeps interest at its peak, but even into the 1980s and 1990s, some models just had the one color, or possibly a second recolor. The Dodge tow truck begged for additional liveries, especially for the US market where BP was not a trade name here at that time despite being world-famous. I would think other gasoline / petrol companies at that time would have been willing to lend its name to Matchbox for promotional purposes, and probably a much less complex situation than today where brands are guard fiercely and licensing agreements involve large sums of money.
Very tidy build Danny, love that trick with the front wheels. Dukes of Hazzard stuff seems to be really popular just now, not just the vehicles, been seeing stuff all over the web.👍
Fantastic!! Really loving your transformation of this casting!! (Already seen plenty of restos of this one!) You would not pick it was the Ol' BP tow truck! Cheers
A town in the American South was all set to throw a 'Cooter Festival' (in honor of an indigenous turtle) with the actor playing 'Cooter' scheduled to appear. Then someone reminded them what 'cooter' also meant... ...and they held it anyway.
I'd like what you did with the tow truck plus improving the wheels was kind of clever, I'd wonder if you'll do Sheriff Rosco's police cruiser sometime later in the future?
Danny, do you have any old Land Rover’s in your collection. A challenge id like to see would be a custom Camel Trophy style Land Rover. Would suit your skills making survival and 4x4 items to attach.
The windscreen, interior and wheels really make it look like a brand new Matchbox. Very well done mate
Legendary Vintage Custom Dodge Wrecker restoration. Awesome video. Love the red white & blue.
That was a fun build. Dukes were my favorite tv show characters as a kid. The end of the video was great. Glad I watched the whole thing.
The Catherine Bach show. I believe there was a red car in it.
Enjoyed this transformation into the dukes of hazard tow truck .The final finished model does you justice and it is a one off ,like the decals which give the finish touch along with the front bumper and towing chain ....excellent
Excellent build. Really lovely casting. Great fiddley work on the tow bits & nice wheel mod. Super cool!
Great job on this truck!! Terrific paint job! I can picture Cooter driving around the backroads of Hazzard county looking to give Ol' Boss Hogg a tow!! LOL
Great job. My favorite TV show ever.
Good job 👍 that towtruck looks amazing ... i watched the Dukes of Hazzard always when i was a Boy
Very creative, great take on an old standby Lesney model.
That was a cool build! I was expecting to see Roscoe chasing them. 😂
Great idea and well executed. 🏆
I suggest the Uncle Jesse pick up truck.
Great work, Danny!!!! My preference for any "diecast disaster" is a completely customized model, be it repainted a different color with Real-Riders-type wheels, or this with lots of icing on the cake....the big push bar across the front bumper and the custom hook.

Amazing build ! Looks much more interesting than an original restoration.
Nice one man! I loved watching them Duke boys foil Boss Hoggs plans.
Great work Danny, Cooter would be proud!!
absolutely beautiful. looks better than the original did new. fit right in your junkyard diorama.
oops not that it's junk... don't mean to imply that, just that wreckers go with junk yards.
That is a massive improvement! I like the customizing of it to Cooter's Tow Truck. The paint and the wheels look great. Thanks for sharing this neat build.
That was a brilliant transformation... and loved the cameo at the end... =)
A superb custom job Danny. Looks too good to get dirty.
A wonderful custom build whippy Kai hay 👍
Awesome! Love them Dukes!!! Well Done!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You did a nice job of customising this though 👍
Wow. Looks great. Fun to make custom of old Models,and not always restoration. Looking forward to se your hazards collection
You left the Dobge beautiful, very good customization, greetings friend
Awesome job. Looks great. Love the Dukes Of Hazzard.
Very nice job, like that chain on tow hitch and those narrow front wheels.
Those wheels look little bit like "trilex" spoke wheels on heavy trucks.
Very nice custom of a popular matchbox truck
It came out really well and I bet this Matchbox casting is a lot better than the Ertl. 👍🙂
Best version of this truck iv seen done. Great work.
kool , thanx....the Stars of Dukes of Hazzard , were the cars,,,,neat one
Robert
Great job Danny ,,brings me back to when I used to watch the Dukes of Hazard, ol' Cooter was great in the series 😆👍
Hmmmmmm, brought back memories of those luscious daisy dukes! Hmmmmm.😜
Great work Danny, watching you chop the wheels was triggering my anxiety a bit, at least you didn't chop your thumb off! :D
Great resto. I love the endings of your videos
VERY nice Danny, one more to be proud of for sure !! You need to be working for the toy makers ...

How in the hell does someone give a dislike to Cooter's Truck?
I know.
Idiots and philistines.
People who dislike the show

That is awesome. Great job
"Crrrazy Skeeter comin atcha"

Ben Jones aka Cooter Davenport would love that, well done Danny

Really loving your transformation of this casting!!
(Already seen plenty of restos of this one!)
You would not pick it was the Ol' BP tow truck!
Cheers
Good work I wouldn't have messed with the new wheels I would've just left them alone but otherwise good work.
Yee Haw ...Gr8 job 🖒🖒🖒Thanks for sharing it with us
Nice job!!!
Awesome job as usual Danny!
Love it, amazing work 👍🏻🔥🤘🏻
A town in the American South was all set to throw a 'Cooter Festival' (in honor of an indigenous turtle) with the actor playing 'Cooter' scheduled to appear. Then someone reminded them what 'cooter' also meant...

Love that Danny
Fab work Danny. As Bo would say Yeeehaaaa!!
Awesome job looks incredible!
😁👍
Very nice Danny 👍
I'd like what you did with the tow truck plus improving the wheels was kind of clever, I'd wonder if you'll do Sheriff Rosco's police cruiser sometime later in the future?
awsome dan
Very good 👍
Nicely
This is dope Danny!
Awesome Custom!
Great work as usual, how about making the stair car from arrested development?
Danny, do you have any old Land Rover’s in your collection. A challenge id like to see would be a custom Camel Trophy style Land Rover. Would suit your skills making survival and 4x4 items to attach.
I have a few actually I have been thinking about how to do them for a while.
Cool! Maybe share some of them the community page? I recon Camel Trophy personally..
I have a couple of these myself. I might do one of them as a custom for my channel
