    I think the sand blasting is the most satisfying part of this next to the rebuild. All the details come back to life during this part.

    Masterful! A splendiferous restoration.
    Restoration is a must
    he takes a thing of rust
    brings it up shining again
    ans sometime, it appears, does cause him some pain
    he never gives up
    working with finger sore and if he is not more careful
    he won't do it no more.
    You have 10 digits is true
    what you do with them is up to you
    but cutting them off one by one
    is a lot more pain than fun.

    Chip, your channel is much more than the restoration of time-pieces. It is a microcosm of American manufacturing and ingenuity. These were heirloom pieces and not just toys.
    Your work belongs in the Smithsonian Museum or as a traveling museum exhibit.

    Had to watch this one as my brother had the identical truck when we were kids! So glad you went with the blue. We (cousins, brother, self) usually abused our Dinky and Corgi vehicles in the dirt of the farm each summer, and the Tonkas and Buddy Ls were much more practical; we just didn't have enough of them!
    Brings back memories from a lo-o-ong time ago!

    This example is in turquoise...but it also came in sky blue, dark red, and tan brown. In the 1964 Buddy L catalog the retail price was U.S. $5.33, which included the truck, two adult horses, two baby horses, and a plastic corral fence.

I only ever hope, that one day, I too, may be able to have the knowledge to work these machines, and tools, to do this. It has always been a dream of mine. Look forward to ALL your next work. Thank you so much for the entertainment, understanding, and fun in allowing me/us to watch your talent. All the best. 😘😘😘

Heavy duty metal cars, trucks, tractors, and trailers that his kids, 20 years my senior, used to play with in the 40s and 50s. Your videos bring back such fond memories of those days. Awesome restoration! Thanks.

    I think you're one of the best Tonka/BuddyL/Nylint restorers on RUclips. You and Rescue & Restore. I like how you use the primer powder coat properly and wet sand each part before color coating. The powder coat bakes on so evenly. Like better than new!
    When I saw the truck before you sand blasted, I couldn't even tell what color it was originally. Underneath all that surface rust, I thought the truck was a dark red.
    ADDED: Went on Google and searched this certain truck, and it was a dark red originally. Wonder what made you decide to use a light blue? Just curious.
