In this video we take you step by step on how to restore one of the original Hot Wheels Sweet 16, the Custom Fleetside. This casting was in rough shape but turns out pretty nice.

I didn't know the tonneau cover was a separate piece, I thought it was part of the casting. Great job, the purple looks beautiful.

I have never seen this casting before, I like it. I love your work. It turned out great! I enjoy your editing, work space, and the run-down of steps taken. Plus, your voice is calming, a smooth delivery. I hope you, and yours, are healthy and staying safe.

Despite the imperfections, it still looks really good! Great job!

I wish I'd seen this video before I renovated mine, but mine was in worse shape, ie missing a wheel, no bed cover, no glass. I swapped the wheels for some rubber ones and I drilled the base to fit a new axle, I have left the metal bare and I am happy with results, although at the time I did not know of the wheel removal tool. A great video and approach, your voice is steady and calming, you dont talk down to your watchers and give of your experience and knowledge freely. Thanks.

Beautiful job! The fleet side is based on Harry Bradley's 1964 El Camino, and is the only one that I know of. I bought two of the RE issues in the lime gold color and one of them I removed the orange ramp. I would also like to say that because of you and your videos, I was inspired to build a 1964 El Camino using one hot wheels 1964 chevelle, one johnny lightning 1964 chevelle convertible, and one johnny lightning 1965 El Camino. A johnny lightning 1969 mustang was used as a donor for the wheels. All in all it came out pretty good. Again thank you for the work that you do and the inspiration to take on such a project
