MAJORETTE 238 Peugeot 604 custom
Introduced in 1975, the Peugeot 604 was the French manufacturer's ambitious attempt to challenge established luxury saloons from Germany and Britain. Styled by Pininfarina and powered by the PRV V6 engine, it was praised for its comfort, refinement and understated elegance. However, a combination of economic turmoil, fierce competition and reliability concerns limited sales, leaving it as one of Peugeot's most intriguing and overlooked flagship models.
In this video, I aim to capture some of the 604's understated elegance by enhancing Majorette's casting with a series of subtle upgrades. The model receives a fresh set of wheels inspired by later GTI sets, a refined paint finish with exterior detailing to bring out the casting's features, and a reworked window piece to reduce the heavy amber tint, a modification that proved more challenging than expected.

![HOT WHEELS Ford Escort MAX POWER Project 2000 @rsjamie9423 custom
This build recreates the iconic Max Power Project 2000 Escort. After my tribute build to it last year for a Diecast Heroes magazine feature, I had a bit of back and forth with current owner of the car, Jamie (@rsjamie9423). In that build, Id used a Majorette Mark 5 Escort where this Hot Wheels Escort Rally is near identical to it, so I promised her Id make a true replica.
The real Project 2000 is a wild build. It was provided to the UK customising and car culture magazine Max Power in the late 90s by Ford UK. The motorsport shell was plied equipment and upgrades worth the equivalent of £150,000 or $200,000 US today! While most Max Power builds of the time were crafted from fibreglass, Project 2000 had a full steel shell to almost meet Group A motorsport standards. It is a proper beast!
To replicate it, there were a few changes that needed making, some major, some minor. Those cast-in rally lamps had to go. That you could consider major. Then I had to tidy up the mess made from that, angle that rear wing a bit, give it some nearly-but-not-quite replica rims, fit a full lime green rollcage that is barely visible through the heavily tinted windows, and then of course provide it with its iconic pink paintwork.
