Kickass, looks great! When I was a youngster, these things were the ultimate road builder, you could really lean into them. Awesome resto...I want one.

If u were a boy or girl & didn’t play with 1 of these your parents didn’t like u lol no man they had the whole set @ 1 time not sure if they still make it but it would be nice to have the whole set now

Parents in my neighborhood stopped buying Tonkas when they went plastic instead of metal. Little boys can be hard on their construction toys and durability was Tonka's selling point.

This is like the "rescue and restore" ... So identical and i love iiiitttt

@wendyclark4574 3 жыл бұрын

Rescue & Restore gets items, wrecks them and then "restores" them. I was disappointed to learn this. When I look at the all the 'abandoned' items they all look like they've been dipped in paint stripper and then stepped on.

My Dad bought me one exactly the same from the UK in the early 70’s I would ride it down our sloped back yard it was built so tough along with my Tonka Dump Truck and Crain Truck I had so many great days playing in my back yard digging holes and constructing tunnels it brings back so many great memories..

I watched a few of your builds and they come out awesome. One thing I could recommend is get yourself a couple hammer and dolly tools for doing the sheet-metal work. They work a little better than the claw hammer. And you can pick a set up pretty cheap off the old inner web

One of the hardest restorations I've ever seen, man!! That's a great Tonka model and I think it deserves a new front-light. You'd make another one (by hand) like the original one and fix it to the grill. Shouldn't you? It deserves it...!! Respects and all my admiration from Spain!! 🙂👍🇪🇸

When you're doing restorations like this one where you have bunch of plastic and rubber parts you can use ricinus oil to soften rubber and you can use i think bit of laminate polish or furniture polish to give plastics new shine. I've seen guys restoring old matchbox cars using something similar to give plastics new shine.
