- Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In this video I am restoring a 1959 Tonka dragline. As you can see, there was quite a bit of rust. The original owner must have stored this thing at the bottom of the ocean! After some elbow grease and some orange powder I had it looking great again!

Looks better than the day it was made!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fantastic work. It’s truly amazing the level of quality in these toys and I wish I still had mine! A suggestion when applying pressure sensitive stickers, if I may. Spray some water with a small amount of dish soap on the toy and the decal. This will allow you to place the decal correctly without having to resort to trial and error. Blot the excess water and when it dries, the decal will be set.
If it was me I would of got pissed the first time something didn't go back the way it should and would of smashed the whole thing and ended the restoration hobby lol 😂
Great job looks brand new
good restore👍👍
Joe you did a beautiful job on that crane
Muito bom, aqui no Brasil tem muitas dessas em operação; valeu.
Another wonderful restoration. Joe,you keep delivering works of art. The dragline is complete and rigged again. I often saw the real one in operation in my youth.
Very cool machines to watch!
Wow. I think that may hav been your crustiest candidate yet. Nice square knots at 12:00 , 12:40 , and 13:40!!! Very satisfying restoration. Never saw that Tonka toy before. Neat!!!
Thanks Paul! Definitely one of the crustier ones.
Great job again Joe!
Very cool Tonka, well done. 👍
Awesome job… sticker was put on a little crooked but otherwise 👍
I don't think I've put one on straight yet
Makes it look like how they applied stickers in the factory, slap it on on get out out the door to sell!
Real nice work, back in 1959 the cost of this toy was $4.98 dollars and the color was yellow, but anyway like I said real nice work.
I'm sure you did research on it, but that didn't seem to be connected properly.
But it's a beautiful restoration. Love the paint job.
Just like the ones I grew up with in Pennsylvania.
Great job
This makes me think of Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel.
Beautiful work 👌what liquid is in the ultrasonic cleaner?
Simple green, great cleaner
What an awesome restauration. Great job
I missed the part of the main rivet in the swing table

This is a perfect restoration. The workman ship put into it is top notch. This one brings back a lot of great memories played with it for hours. Love your channel and content. ❤🇨🇦

Dommage
