[@slider0915]

Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? That was awesome!

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

Meh, it's the internet, people will hate on anything. Makes them feel better about living in their parent's basement I suppose.

[@CoolGrovyle]

@@TRGRESTORATIONS Besides there are channels who just spoil reputation of restoration genre. And people are too simple minded to differ. They just hate because "some restorators are fakers".

I remember seeing the real size units like this, as a kid, traveling across the, US with my military family. Especially loved the radius corner trailer. Great job. Narragansett Bay

[@Hoonozit]

Looks great man. Nice work.

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

Thanks 👍

[@DoubleDsDeliveries]

Everyone knew the sand blaster would make its return in the next video... It's your bread and butter. It's what we a come for... That and the "Yaaaay!!!!“ Great restore. I have to think if Tonka came out with a new line of trucks like these they'd sell out quickly.

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

I'd buy some for sure!

Wow when this trailer & cab started you could barely see the GREEN GIANT LOGO on the 🚚 truck. I was amazed at the woodworking on the trailer the staining & new hardware, welding the cab, stripping sanding, painting, you name it I'm very inspired as I watch this project. 🙂🚚🚛

I have to say that of all the restoration videos on RUclips you do the BEST sand blasting of all of them they could all take a lesson from you , excellent work mate !!!

I like how the sandblasting is just one sound played over the video the whole time. The painting too.

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

The actual sound it makes sounds like a dental drill when I speed it up, If I completely mute it people complain about the silence, so I had to record a white/brown noise sound loop to use as filler.

[@jjryan1352]

@@TRGRESTORATIONS i completely understand from the video editing perspective. It's very soothing that way.
