the difference between being a hoarder and being prepared is organization! you are so organized!! love the case with the extras. and the pitting almost makes it look like a sculpture. lovely work. 5 ad breaks, 10 ads, 2 skippable.

The seemingly unending supply of super rusty Tonka trucks amazes me
@Toystorations2 жыл бұрын
My inability to find one rough enough to justify taking it apart to restore amazes me. No idea where these guys keep finding all these super rough trucks.

Even though I know that there's no danger to me seeing someone welding in a video, I always look away lmao. My parents got really into a welding class when I was a kid and hammered it into my brain a little too hard. Love the final look! Straight restos are cool but I also love seeing your creativity!

It takes a special ‘something’ to mod stock vehicles. Doesn’t matter if it’s a toy or a full-size car; KUDOS Joe!

I dig this. Love the polishing of the body. The overall theme gives me the vibe of a truck that would be on someone’s desk (desk art), or part of a trophy / award. The outcome is quite fun. Good job!

Very very cool. After seeing the polish and clear coat - I think that looks better than the super chrome. And I think a flat color would have looked better than the brass....I think a flat black would have looked really cool. Definitely the rusty white wall look best. Very very cool!

This turned out great, good job. You could do a rust converter on some rusty parts and then clear over that like some rat rodders have done. Also you could try shoe polish on the white walls to see if they can be stained to the look you want. Might take some trail and error to get it to work right.

Any idea as to what it was ??? Oh one little heads up . There are inexpensive hot air driers used to work with special inks for stamping art . It's quite the little tool I've used it for the wire shrink tubes works great and a lot safer than that lighter less chance of damage to the surrounding area .
