Hey Danny I’m 62 this December and used to collect these cars as a kid. You have made them so much better and I would love to try my hand it converting them into a true work of art as you do. Keep up the great work your new fan Mike !!
Superb rusting effects. Love it! For more realism go heavier on the wheel arches and sills, they are usually the worst for rust. This one is in your top 3 for sure mate.
This is awesome. I love how easy the salt method is. Not to say the chipping medium is especially hard, but this looks so easy and give a result that is as good if not better and uses stuff that you've probably got lying around the house.
Awesome video. As a Canadian, I can appreciate the irony of using salt to create the rust effects. Road salt is the number one cause of metal cancer after all. The only thing I would worry about if this were a real vehicle is just how close those expensive tires are to the exhaust. lol
Hi, Big Daddy Roth would’ve be proud of this rat rod. Great job. For those out there who don’t know who Big Daddy Roth is/was..... Google it! See ya next time.
It would be awesome if you could make a War Boy car carrier, like for example a NASCAR transport truck and trailer that was found by the War Boys or a traditional semi truck with car transport trailer that the War Boys are using to either collect rare cars from unfortunate Wastelanders or to transport damaged attack cars and pursuit vehicles back to their base for repairs. P.S it would be cool if the trailer would be outfitted/decorated with car parts.
Great VW Danny, the rust effect is top notch. I live in the State of Indiana on the Northern border about a hundred miles from Chicago. I tell you this because where I live RUST is our State symbol. LOL. In the winter they spread salt (Cacium Chloride) on the streets to melt the ice. It works but it also destroys everything else it contacts, vehicles, concrete and the environment. So again, great job on the rust.
Great work on the rust effect Danny. I certainly learnt a few things here and will give them a go myself, I also have one of these Beetles knocking about too.
kooool , thanx...yes easily my favorite aswell....nice work...those are actually hard to get , here in California USA....alot of VW people here...they snap'em rite up...Rock onnn Robert
Could of used the tell pipes as the brake lights, that thing it lit, I would mob in it, thank you, you have gave me some good ideas for my extra V Dub bug. 🔥🤘🏻
I've watched some of your other videos and every time you used that chipping stuff I kept thinking why doesn't he use the salt method? Glad to see you using it here, gives much better results in my opinion 👍
That's what I'm talkin' about. A true Danny's Diecast Disaster. Awesome. The interior/base/motor/axles look super duper cool. How do you think the salt technique compares to the chipping medium? Cool experiment.
Don't the old-style bugs like that have the engine in the TRUNK (boot) not under the hood (bonnet)? Why did you choose to put it in the front? Wouldn't that require a LOT of retrofitting?
Hey man i enjoy your videos your customs are spot on your weathering is perfect and please keep them comeing i have only one suggestion for your videos theres alot of dead air maybe you could slip some music in or some other track i appreciate your time in reading my comment and hope you have a successful channel

Fantastic result. Nice conversion.

Very realistic rust,nice!
Excellent job as usual!!!
What a great custom you definitely have a talent !!
Best use of a VW bug yet!!!
looks amazing ! I never could imagine how good looks that cast with a big motor in front.. gorgeous !
Top job Danny! brilliant idea using the rock salt in that way, makes a great effect when it's finished.
Amazing. It's just awesome. The rust is so natural . Impressed......again. and the scenary,makes it ewen moore realistic
Danny I will be honest I had my doubts about the paint but after you got it put together I love it. Great work!👍
Great job! Thanks for the show!
I love the "rust". Great job. VW's are my favorite.
Great colour choice. The contrast between the rust and the paint is amazing and top notch.
The rust looks real and the engine looks awesome
Great effects on this. The rock salt - what a brilliant idea. Love the finished car
Fantastic weathering technique, very realistic looking.
Nice Rat Rod, I would’ve cut off the luggage rack, but it still looks great.
Man that wide stance on it is sick. It turned out great.
The rock salt trick was 🔥🔥🔥
Danny Danny Danny you are a certified bad ass. I love it! Rock on brother!
Love the stance on this rat rod, perfect wheel height and width.
Superb rusting effects. Love it! For more realism go heavier on the wheel arches and sills, they are usually the worst for rust. This one is in your top 3 for sure mate.
Amazing Danny, as always! The realism you bring to your paint effects are the best on CZcams.
Could only imagine how powerful this beast would be! Power to weight ratio would be on its side!
Looks fantastic. Love VW's

I was just discussing those images a few days ago with some old friends, also the Odd Rods stickers which were based off them
Very good
you did a great job...

That was a lot of work you put into this one! Well worth it!

Nice work , cool car. Cool idea. Mike Espo .................................
Excellent Danny, it looks great.
All the best.
MORE POWERFULL THAT VW GOOD JOB MY FRIEND
I've watched some of your other videos and every time you used that chipping stuff I kept thinking why doesn't he use the salt method? Glad to see you using it here, gives much better results in my opinion 👍
Coole Idee. Bin auch gerade drann einen hotrod zu bauen aus nem volvo 850
This style is called "Volksrod"
Wow its súper Nice , Great work 👍👏👌👍👏👌👍👌👏👌👍👌👏👍👌👏👍👏From Buenos aires Argentina 🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
As the adage goes; everything old is new again...
That's what I'm talkin' about. A true Danny's Diecast Disaster. Awesome. The interior/base/motor/axles look super duper cool. How do you think the salt technique compares to the chipping medium? Cool experiment.
It's better and easier but less accurate. I love the effect! 👍
It looks easier and more natural.
👍🏻🔥🔥
for when a mini morris????
Cool interessante Variante den Rostlook zu machen. Ich habe da Rostaktivator genommen.
Show
👌
Don't the old-style bugs like that have the engine in the TRUNK (boot) not under the hood (bonnet)? Why did you choose to put it in the front? Wouldn't that require a LOT of retrofitting?
Yes you can find some images of ratted beetles with front engines 👍
Plenty of VolksRods running around. It's fairly common actually. Look up V8StealthBeetle here on CZcams for example.
👍
Hey man i enjoy your videos your customs are spot on your weathering is perfect and please keep them comeing i have only one suggestion for your videos theres alot of dead air maybe you could slip some music in or some other track i appreciate your time in reading my comment and hope you have a successful channel
Just a couple
I think this salt method is better than the cracking medium.
kool , thanx...sweet one , I been usin' sum o those motors , To create sum kool Gassers here...Rock onnn Danny , I wanna try doin one o those
Robert
Haha yeah I have quite a few Draggers lying round for motors. The Surf N Turf is another goodie. Good to grab a load when they are on special.
@@DannysDiecastDisasters yes , was jus thinkin' 'bout the Surf wagon one , for gasser parts....possible Studebaker p-up project in the works.........jus finished 4 Gassers....wish I couuld make a vid...I will try to post them @ custom die-cast R & H's.fb page....Rock onnn Danny

I think this cos me about $2.50, the Hot Wheels are a good option if you don't want to cut up an older toy.
Nice, but I'd have gotten rid of the luggage rack on the roof
