JUNKYARD LOVE = Wild Diecast Baby

Welcom back to ATOMIC DIECAST! Today on the workbench a pile of Hotwheels Surfcrate parts 'get it on ' with an old Reader's Digest Model T. Hunker down for a step by step, spring loaded, mechanically suspended, fully rebuildable, nearly glueless ride-along as I cut, drill, and file my way to a custom 1/64th scale diecast HotRod. I'll engineer a split chassis hinge from the Surfcrate base using an axle as the pin, and spring load it using a GUITAR STRING! I'll also use a sharpie to recreate BRASS from a polished diecast part, and finish it all off with some wheel swapping just for fun. Drop a comment letting me know what you think of the build and which wheels you think look the best! 0:00 _ Intro, JunkYard skit, Parts roundup 1:02 _ Fitting and Mods begin, Body to Engine 3:59 _ Chassis prep for Drilling Hinge Point 5:23 _ Drill Hinge Point, Improvise Tools 6:52 _ Split Chassis, Rough then Filing Hinge 9:25 _ Broken Arm, Slip Fit & Match Drill Hinge 11:54 _ Pin Fit, Precise Hinge, Front Chassis Done 14:31 _ Rear Chassis, Full Hinge Range of Motion 15:08 _ Rear Axle Retainer, MICRO SLOTTING 17:58 _ Windscreen, Roof Glue, Steering Wheel 20:19 _ Finish Rear Chassis 21:52 _ Surfboard Holster; Concept, Fab & Mount 25:46 _ BRASS Finish on Holster 26:12 _ GUITAR STRING SUSPENSION 30:29 _ Final Assembly 32:46 _ Completed Car, Wheel Swaps for Fun #CustomHotwheels #diecastcustom #AtomicDiecast #scratchbuilding #hotwheelsmainline #scalemodeling #modelt #surfcrate #workshopasmr
