    Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In today's video I am restoring a classic 1950's Tonka Allied moving van. This thing was beat! Full of dents and a bad repaint, it needed a little love.

    I love these videos! It’s very satisfying to see something old and discarded become brand new again. I don’t know if this question has been asked in a different video, but what do you do with the restored toys? Do you sell them?

    I knew your sandblaster was in for a rough go of it with all that paint. How many parts did you have to order-out? The 50's look is so cool! Maybe highlight the tires!

  • @brianchisnell1548
    @brianchisnell1548 3 года назад +1

    A lot of work. Good job! I am a collector. All of mine are unrestored originals. People don't realize the value of these. This is a 1958. The year I was born. Mint original could go for 1,000 bucks if it had the original box. Restored trucks are about half value. I have many '58s and earlier varieties. The Mighty Tonkas begining in late '64 are such eye candy in the man cave. Ignore the nit pickers. Cheers!

  • @Redpass63
    @Redpass63 4 года назад +1

    Overall, the video is good. I would have preferred, however, to paint it first with primer and then sand it with abrasive paper, since - especially in the trailer - you can see many imperfections. Even in the left part behind the cabin you can clearly see a bump, and it is a pity not to have it repaired. Maybe next time.

  • @davidl.miller8168
    @davidl.miller8168 4 года назад +1

    Nice video, it is great to see toys from our youth repurposed. I don't know how 332 people can give a thumbs down to this video. This is saving a part of Americana.

  • @hosseric
    @hosseric 3 года назад +1

    I have a general question is powder coating less expensive than spray painting I just haven't figured that out if you could help me that would be great also the powder coat that lands on the floor is just thrown away or is it reduced?

  • @georgegoff2550
    @georgegoff2550 4 года назад +2

    Id be interested in seeing how you tackled sandblasting the inside. Or the process you used the remove the rust efficiently . Thx G

    • @joe_diy
      @joe_diy  4 года назад +1

      Its actually not that interesting. I stick the Sandblaster gun in the end and just blast until I remove as much as possible then finish with steel wool and sandpaper. Takes a while.

  • @patrickrichmond9896
    @patrickrichmond9896 4 года назад +1

    I am glad that you guys are restoring these old relics. For those who are watching these, they didn't have any interiors for these trucks back then. When Tonka started doing smaller scale trucks, then they started installing interiors into the trucks.

    For all the clips you're doing, you should really get a pair of smooth flat nosed pliers (especially look after the ones that have a very sharp edge, as it makes sneaking the pair in under easier). If you want to drop the dough on a pair, look for knipex 38 190, at least to give you an idea of what i'm talking about.
