Great job. Looks better than new. I love the cheering for the sandblaster....cracks me up. I too like watching the sandblaster... I could watch that all day. Don't know why....just so satisfying to watch.
Loved the sound effects, especially the bird 🤣. Beautiful work once again. How many of us out there are salivating at the opportunity to have the fabrication skills you possess? I’m a former aircraft mechanic, so I can especially appreciate the sheet metal work, the sandblasting skills, the rivet process, the ability to compensate, and so on. The only process in need of refinement is the anti-corrosion implementation process. With a little ingenuity, determination and skill, there isn’t much one can’t do. You’re site is a nice place to visit for a splendid opportunity to escape from the hardships in life. Congratulations and keep them coming. I’m always looking for an opportunity to escape reality for a few minutes in this crazy world of ours. To me this is raw entertainment at its best.
Well done restoration. Really like the addition of the working head and tail lights and adding the instrumentation to the dash board that it didn't come with originally.
I've seen other restorers use simple green or oxy clean on the plastic parts.. breaks up the rust stains pretty good... love the custom touches.. nice job 👍
@@TRGRESTORATIONS Cool! I like to see what upgrades you'll do. Whenever I'd do a custom job on something old, I like to call it, "Bringing it into the 21st century". Well done.
I understand it’s easy to armchair pint out mistakes, but with all the work your doin, I was wondering why you didn’t paint the bed liner parts separately before screwing them together? I figure you know it’s going to rust but if you even apply just a coat of promise between those parts it’ll last longer. Good job sir.
I LOVE these video's because of "eeeYAAAAY!!!" on the sandblaster - LOL Edit: Excellent build!! Thank you so much for sharing. It is such a pleasure watching your videos.
When you put "pimped" in the title, I was expecting chopped and channeled, Lake Pipes, dished rims, and a raked front end....excellent work! Best wishes and stay healthy my brother.
Very nice! I like that you left the Black Walls. This is a truck I wouldn't mind driving. Great job. Stay safe and healthy. Have a great weekend. Well at least what's left of it.
A FANTASTIC looking custom Tonka Pickup!!.. This kind of reminds me of the late 70s Dodge Lil Red Express Pickups with those dual stacks!!.. Keep up the great work Bud!!
A truck worthy of having your logo on the dash Tim. Great restore, I love the color scheme, dual stacks and chrome wheels. And lights!! I'm guessing with your obvious craftsmanship and specialized tools this is much more than a hobby. I wish I could discover a rare "barn" find to have you restore it. You and yours stay safe, I look forward to your next restore and cheers from Tennessee.👍❤️😷🍻👍
Absolutely awesome Restomod restoration Tonka Truck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Two thumbs way up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My 3yo son and I love watching your videos together. He asks me questions all the way through. Love it!
Love all the attention this old vehicles get. Thanks

Great job. Looks better than new. I love the cheering for the sandblaster....cracks me up. I too like watching the sandblaster... I could watch that all day. Don't know why....just so satisfying to watch.
The best of all your restoration videos ......nice color .. great green
Thank you very much!
Looks good but I'm not a fan of mismatched bed . The first paint looked better
I don't care what anyone says, this thing is cool as hell. It would have been my favorite toy if I'd had it as a kid
Nice one!! 👍🏼🙌🏼
Thanks man!!
Black pinstriping on the front would tie the colors together quite nicely. Fun video!
Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fantastic work. Nice touch with adding the lights

This is wonderful. You give these wonderful toys a second live. And they look very good after you refurbish them.
Well done restoration. Really like the addition of the working head and tail lights and adding the instrumentation to the dash board that it didn't come with originally.
Thanks! Tried to add as many extras as I could imagine.
Good Work. Liked the added lights.
Thanks! They definitely finish the look!
Nicely done. I like all your toys too especially the sand blaster. I also liked all the birds you could hear singing in the background.
Thank you 🤗
I've seen other restorers use simple green or oxy clean on the plastic parts.. breaks up the rust stains pretty good... love the custom touches.. nice job 👍
Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fantastic Custom Restoration... Stay Well..
Nicely done, I didn't think I'd like the green but with the black to contrast it it's sweet looking! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Wasn't my original vision, but I like the way it ended up
Plan B's are incredible when they turn out. Awesome job on this!
Has a big mopar vibe to it. I liked it.
First time watching. My son and I are impressed. He wants me to try it sometime lol.
Thanks! Give it a try!
Very nice! Great color idea and the pipes add a great touch.👍👍
This is the second of your videos I have watched. I can see all the love and care you put into each piece. It gives me hope. Thank you for sharing.
Shorter stacks would look better, like in line with the cab.
Yap. Or maybe a little bit above the roof would’ve looked good too.
A kid will be able to poke both eyes out at the same time. Brilliant!
When you put the custom light bezels on, I thought there's no way you're not put LED lights in them! Awesome job Tim 🙂
Thanks! You can buy so many cool things for them, definitely more customs coming!
@@TRGRESTORATIONS Cool! I like to see what upgrades you'll do. Whenever I'd do a custom job on something old, I like to call it, "Bringing it into the 21st century". Well done.
Thanks for keeping the videos flowing through tough times..
The mini paint shaker is awesome! I had no idea that such a thing existed.

Good job sir.
Awesome job, really loved to see the restoration.
Thank you very much!
Wow it turned out awesome with that color combination.
Thank you! Cheers!
I love it.Brilliant
Awesome truck. Love that green
Thanks 👍
That's awesome. I love it. You would make a kid so happy 😁
Enjoyed the restoration process but the mismatched bed and cab makes it look like billy sues truck from down the holler. Otherwise great work.
Some guys are "Do It Right Donny" some guys are "Buy It With Dads Money Chad" and some guys are "Billy Sue From Down The Holler" LOL 😄
Thanks for the info
got the same vibe. that's why i thought it was awesome
I sued who?
Ya.. why can’t leave it original no mismatched colors or whatever
Masterpiece ! Great custom .
Thank you very much!
Every time you show the sand blaster and all little kids cheer it always cracks me up and makes me laugh
Puts a smile to my face too as it is my favorite machine from these restoration channels.
Kevin Keech me too
Me too lmao
Lol! It’s true! It’s all our favourite part!
Seriously nice. I love this build.
Good Restoration Done 👍
👏 👏 👏
Love everything about this truck! Hard to believe it's the same broken down truck that rolled in.
Brilliant, enjoyed this episode. Hope it becomes a regular series on your channel. Love restomods. Keep up the good work.
More to come!
I LOVE these video's because of "eeeYAAAAY!!!" on the sandblaster - LOL
Edit: Excellent build!! Thank you so much for sharing. It is such a pleasure watching your videos.
Good work with this truck!
Thanks!!!
Awesome , lights and all . The lights were a bonus ... Great work .
Mike Espo..
What a beautiful truck it’s turned out to be. Well done 👍
Very cool customization!
Thanks! definitely planning more.
Exceptional restoration.
Thanks!
Man, I'd like to have it as is. It beautiful. I build models like that on purpose. Thanks to all the great products today. Cool truck
Very Nice Restoration
Thank you very much!
Nice shiny paint job!!
Best video yet!!! 😍😍😍
Wow, thanks!
That is a proper pimped out ride mate. Looks awesome. Great video bud
Thanks 👍
Is a beautiful work I loved
I like the exhaust pipes and the working lights! All it needs now is some custom decals.To make it look like the “Grave Digger” monster truck!
That would be cool!
That was too cool! Love it!
That came out awesome 👌
kills me that you didn't paint the "Tonka" on the tires white
Thought about it, just didn't like the way it looked
And the HOOD with some black lines
I agree, raised white letter tires would set it off better
Why do you give a Fuck. It's not your fucking damn toy restoring now is it..so piss off you dip Shit ol Tool that you y
Jay Starsky no need to be a dick, he was just making a suggestion
Great Job @TRG RESTORATION
That new look just pops!!
Absolutely nice job bud!!
Thanks a bunch!
You do the best job's ever !!!
Incredible transformation!
Thanks!!
Flat black hood. Super cool truck.
Wow awesome love the color 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
We love the custom restoration!! More of these please! (I watch with my boys, 6 & 8 years old. They love your videos!
Thank you! Will do!
Awesome custom bro !!!!
Love the chrome tyres and two colour combo 👍
Awesome job. I like the pipes and lights.
Can’t wait to see another custom classic Tonka truck
Coming soon!
That looks Amazing!
Wow!!! Excellent work...
Thank you! Cheers!
When you put "pimped" in the title, I was expecting chopped and channeled, Lake Pipes, dished rims, and a raked front end....excellent work! Best wishes and stay healthy my brother.
I was expecting a swimming pool in the tray and TVs underneath the cab.
Love it. One mean looking truck. Color nd lights are fantastic. I would diff purchase this rig. Omg!!!!
Now that's bad ass. The only thing I would've changed is maybe paint the fender flares. That's just me. I love it.
that's a cool idea
Супер машина вышла. Круто. 👍👍👍👍👍👍🚛🚚
Best restorations I have seen so far on RUclips!!
💘 those dual exhaust stacks!!
GREAT JOB, TRG!!!!!! brand new beautiful truck!!!
Very nice! I like that you left the Black Walls. This is a truck I wouldn't mind driving. Great job. Stay safe and healthy. Have a great weekend. Well at least what's left of it.
Lights are Awesome 👍😎👍
🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊
I like the mix-matched paint on it. It's more realistic if you ask me, old trucks like this usually have different colors on em 🤷♂️
Awesome Restoration! Your making me miss my Sandbox from back in the day.
lol I wish I had these back in the day!
Sick dude!! Love it!!!
Good job!!!👍👍👍👏👏👏
Thanks!!
Это шедевр. Лайк автору.
большое спасибо вам
A great restore, amazing!!!!!
I think it's a restomod. Am I correct?
Love the lights and color!
Thanks for watching!
OUTSTANDING!
really nice! like all your added touches! the stacks seal the deal!!
My favorite color! 😍
Turned out nice. Not my choice of colors but it’s not my truck. 👍🏽🐒🇺🇸
This Video forced me to suscribe your channel🙂🙂👍👍👍 Awesome Restoration
Great restoration what an arsenal of tools you have.
Thanks 👍 I. NEED. MORE. TOOLS! (tell my wife! lol)
@@TRGRESTORATIONS LOL :-)
A FANTASTIC looking custom Tonka Pickup!!.. This kind of reminds me of the late 70s Dodge Lil Red Express Pickups with those dual stacks!!.. Keep up the great work Bud!!
Was this once a tow truck? I had a large Tonka tow truck with an orange body, and this reminds me of it. If memory serves, it had two cranes.
good work. keep it up!
Thank you, glad you liked it!
