1968 Tonka Jeep Wrecker Snow Plow Tow Truck Recovery Willys CJ2A
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2021
- I purchased this 1968 Tonka Jeep Wrecker Snow Plow Tow Truck on eBay March of 2021. it was in super rough shape and missing some parts. It was missing the tow crane which I purchased used and added it to the unit, It was also missing the front plow and the emergency light on the hood. Otherwise it was all there just in very rough shape. The body had obviously been crushed and folded up, everything was extremely dirty and rusty. Overall it was in perfect shape for a restoration. This being my first Tonka Jeep to add to the collection I was super excited to operate on this toy. The plastic body still has a few stains but overall I'm extremely happy with how this little snow plow truck came out and look forward to utilizing it to tow in some future projects. Thanks for watching! Tonka number 2435 Tonka "Jeep Wrecker W/ Plow" CJ2A Jeep Body.

I'm a 57 yo female who, for reasons unknown, had one of CCRs' videos show up on my YT doorstep about a week ago.(??) I took the bait out of curiosity, having nothing close to interest in this hobby. A few videos and a sub later, I am now a fan. Although still not interested in taking up the hobby, I do enjoy watching the process of the restoration, and the lovely thought of how much joy this gentleman gets out of this worthy pastime. Rock on Chip!👍😎🚛
Thank you soo much Gina Disbrow!!! and thanks for joining me on my youtube adventure!!
Love your collection
New subscriber just curious are these things you restore for customers or things you have found and decided to fix or both? Love your channel. I also am a 58 yr old woman who just enjoys watching you get to a finished product. Thanks for fixing up these poor relics.
I'm 63 year's old female and the same happened to me😊and now I'm hooked and enjoy each video
Watching it is almost a kind of therapy.
I have watched all of your videos and some of the ones from other restorers. In my opinion, you are the only one really doing it right. COMPLETE dis-assembly, metal work, powder coating with primer then the color coat with wet sanding in between. Nickel Plating...The guys that spray paint with no primer can't get finishes as smooth as yours are. Your restorations look like the toys were manufactured yesterday. Keep up the great work.
Starting to binge watch . I have seen a lot of your work and each time I am amazed by the transformation. This poor little one looks like it is saying , someone has finally found me...
Love watching the powder cook!
I I am I mom
Hello I hello hello hello p partner howdy how or you
It's neat watching your wonderful videos at 2x the speed! Of course I ALWAYS slow it back down to normal to see Inspector Kitty!! Yay Kitty!!!
Sandblasting is a satisfying, interestingly calm thing to watch...
Oh dear, now I'm addicted to Tonka restoration videos too!
I love that this one was more beat than usual. I found a Tonka wrecker @ the dump, got it fixed and promptly sold it. I am kicking myself now. Great job.
Takes me back. My dear mum bought one of those for me at the neighbourhood Woolworth's back in the day. It cost $3.79. My best friend Laurette's mum bought her a blue one. We played with them for hours on our freshly-paved shared double driveway. Happy times. Thanks for this! :o)
I lived in a small town but the Western Auto store was the place for Tonka toys.
Just for laughs I decided to look these up. I found one (in good, unrestored condition) that sold on eBay for $200.
I'm sure they lose a lot of value if they need to be restored, but it's still interesting to see what the old toys are worth.

I need to search for my blue one. Always loved to play with it a lot. And it is in mint condition still. What a great toy and quality!
My best childhood memories are my mate's and I in a dirt pile with our tonka toys.
I agree with Patrick and Mercedes below. I really like to see what you do to restore these old toys. But the icing on the cake are the cat / sheep interludes, I love those!
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you get as much enjoyment out of it as I do!
Really enjoy seeing you bring back to life these old and some antique treasures of a not so long ago time.
@@ChipChannelRestorations Hola buenas días megusto el trabajo que tu as echo pero y que vas a hacer coneyos 🙏💕
I had the Air Force Jeep, a beige Wagoneer and the Wagoneer RV. Absolutely magnificent work…and my wife loves Beaker! Please keep these coming. Seeing these poor wrecks being returned to as new condition is uplifting!
I love how he adds a little character with his hand motions or the toys but yet he doesn’t say 1 word
I'm pretty sure I've watch every one of your videos now. I've enjoy each one of them! For some reason I especially enjoyed this one. I was thinking to myself - "hey when I grow up I want to do what he's doing!" There is something magical about restoring old, forgotten, rusty toys. Thanks!
I wouldn't actually call this a true "restoration " in that the quality of the finished product is far, far superior.
Well done sir.
A towing vehicle getting towed…brilliant! 👍😉
Those stickers were crooked when they were brand new.
Remarkable job.
I had this one as a kid! Used to love to use my blocks and pretent I was plowing the road of snow. Thanks for the memories!!
No matter how many of these restorations I watch, they never cease to amaze me. The time, effort, care and concern that you exhibit for each individual toy restoration can only be described as a labor of love. The finished product can best be described as nothing less than "Art". You are not only an artisan, but also an artist. ;-) Peace
I really enjoy watching these restoration projects-especially the Tonka Toys (I work in Minnetonka, MN, just down the road from where a lot of them were created). I like to buy old locomotive models I grew up with from the junk bin in the hobby store, just to see if I can get them to run again. There’s something about buying discarded old technology and making it new again that is really satisfying and there are a lot of times when the old stuff runs better than the new stuff with just a little motor maintenance. Here’s a tip for the decals; spray some glass cleaner where you’re going to put the decal. Lay it down and slide it around to position it then just let the glass cleaner dry. The decal will stick where you left it.
That soda blaster and powder coating booth are must haves for this kind of work.
The sound the coating booth makes is exactly like the ship in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Beautiful restoration (Glad for sheep are back, don't ever stop having them featured getting up to mischief!)
Another one saved from metal recycling!
And your kitty cat is lovely - what a sensational coat! Thank you!
Captivating.
I love the _"transformer picture sequences"_ at the end.
Beautiful!!! Job. I am an old lady but I love these videos, you do a great job, I use to buy the Tonka Toys for my boys. It bring back the days when my children were growing up and loved playing with toys. Keep up the good work. Blessings to you and your family.
Ma'am! Such Great, Good, Kind & Gentle OLD LADIES like you (Mothers, Grandmothers & Aunts) gave boys (girls included) like me tons of joy, getting us such wonderful Toys for Christmas & kept our childhood memories Heavenly!
I am also an old lady, who bought these for my 2 sons. I agree with you, completely!

The junkyard just isn't the same without the sheep. I'm glad they're back.
What a kool 1968 tonka jeep snow plow tow truck wrecker recovery wilkys
Makes you feel sheepish, doesn't it?
@@kilowagmagnusson4590 wow u proud of that lol

Looks like that jeep hit a one eyed sheep going 60 mph and came off worst. Brilliant repair as usual. Best channel.
That's a sheep shot at humour!
@@kilowagmagnusson4590 it was a sheepish attempt
@@jockdouglass3824 Ba-aa-aa-d joke!
Will admit those fenders looked totaled. When the fenders came off I thought they were too thin to save! But you saved them very good job. Thanks for sharing!

I got interested in toy restoration solely from watching your videos. Your attention to detail and craftsmanship led me to try some on my own. I don't have a sand blaster or powder coat setup yet, but headed that direction. Currently using paint stripper, Dremel wire brushes, sandpaper, & rattle can paint. Please keep up the program, I am learning more with each video, many thanks for the enjoyment! B.T.W., love the sheep!
Better than new. Excellent restoration.
That could be your new recovery truck
Wow! Some kid really put thier full weight on that Jeep! It never ceases to impress me how you save these old toys from the scrap pile.
I saved this video for the end of my day, it's so relaxing before heading to bed. Fantastic Restoration again, so so 👍 good.
Awesome job! Tonka made some great toys growing up. I'm so happy to see you taking time to restore all these amazing toys. You are so into the detail that it is Amazing. Thank you for sharing all of these with us, Great job!!
Ah, sweet nostalgia. I had a green Tonka Jeep similar to this one, only without the wreckers gear or the plow blade.
Well you sold me. I am now subscribed to your channel. It was such a pleasure watching you restore this old classic toy to it's former glory. You have a true talent for what you do.
I had one like this; a little more yellow but no blade or crane, just the jeep. Amazing restoration and many fond memories were relived while watching.
Nice. I had a tonka like this many many years ago. The kids on the block played with theirs and their imaginations. What a blast from the past. 🛻
To nearly anyone else, a Jeep with a “bent frame” would end up in a salvage yard… permanently. Not to Jedi Master Chip! Another flawless restoration. Great to see the salvage yard sheep have returned to work. Thank you for the bi-weekly ASMR fix! Cheers, John in Ohio 👍
At first I was confused wether the bent shape was intentional or not
We fix anything except-"broken hearts"!
LOVE the work that you and kitty did! Kitty's really good at displaying the finished products.
That one eye sheeple is amazing. He can drive anything! Impressive.
Чип, Вы меня разбаловали.
Глядя, как ловко, быстро, красиво, грамотно Вы разбираете, чистите, ремонтируете, выпрямляете, реставрируете... каждую деталь или запчасть, мне уже кажется, что ничего сложного в этом нет, и что даже я с этим справлюсь! 🤭❤️😉
Порадовали этим видео на славу! 👍🍂👏
Your talent for restoration is beyond most. I have always liked the steel large scale toys you rebuild, miss them dearly. Awesome way to preserve the past. Keep up the great work

My enjoyment is seeing you refurbish these old treasures. Thanks. Appreciate your patience and sharing.
Amazing restoration!! I wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't seen it. No, your decals never look crooked! I think you need a sheep with a cone of shame. (Like a veternarian visit.)
It's amazing how good your restorations are despite the function you find them in. Excellent job.
😁👍
I gotta tell you - as impressive as the metalwork is, I think the plastic is even more so. I know how delicate that stuff is and to get those tires and that bench insert looking that pristine with no scratches is like witchcraft.
What a total transformation!!! Any child would love to be able to play with these toys - great job!!!
Thank you for providing another relaxing hour.
Awww.... this isn't so bad... I thought it would be worse... he'll be able to buff this out in no time! Beautiful restoration as always.... and it seems the sheep are very happy too!
My brother had a red one that eventually became mine. I remember putting it in the bottom of the pool and watching it roll down into the deep end. You did a great job of giving this little jeep a second life.

collectors items once restored!! - Excellent work!
Please restore that merry-go-round you show. I'd love to see that done and working. You always do such a wonderful job. You can tell you care about what you are doing. Thank you for sharing.
Tienes lo que se llama,"PTC" (paciencia,talento y creatividad)👌🇲🇽😉👋
That cute little sheep that gets knocked over should say "im ok!" 😂❤ 44:23
Hola buenas noches como estás savage ❤️😂 sam
She wasn't this time lol
I love this one, jeep tow and plow wow, when made in America jeeps really was a work horse.
It's nice to see a channel that repairs these old classic vehicles like time capsules of my youth
Hey, the sheep are back!
As always, another great video!👍
Wow, that jeep has definitely seen better days! What a transformation.
You know I'm 46 for some reason i get satisfaction from seeing the cat and sheep in these videos. Is that weird or sad.

Come for the sheep stay for the sandblasting.
Awesome job. Mine was a truck and had metal bars that went from where your emergency light is ( mine didn't have one) to the plow and could turn the plow left and right. You used your thumb and index finger back and forth and the plow would turn right or left. I believe it went to the landfill in the late 70's😥. I do know what I am binge watching this evening. Glad I found this Channel. Thank you
I so much enjoy watching you rebuild/refurbish these toys....it is so restful. I grew up very poor and we couldn't afford many toys but the couple we had (my brother and I) were cherished. Now I can relive my childhood!! It is quite thrilling!!!! I really enjoy your cat!
The sheep are back!!! Love it! 😂❤️ you do such a great job on these!
What an amazing transformation! I enjoy watching you restore these old toys! Thank you for sharing!
love from orrocco 🇲🇦
Happy to see the sheep have come back to the rustic pile of cars and other stuff.
i, too, feel soothed and calm watching the quiet, gentle way you restore these toys.
I feel great satisfaction when you clean these toys and show us like we are doing it with you. Awesome work boy! Loved it 😊!!
Beautiful restoration, I love it when the really rough ones are brought back!
That toy is solid. They do not make them like that today. And AWESOME work.
The rust made it look like the frame was bent in the middle. You did a great job!
Beautiful work, as usual. I’m always impressed with how easily you apply the stickers. Good to see your hands have healed.
The sticker wasn't crooked, the Jeep was!🤣
You truly have a gift for restoration !your attention to detail and craftsmanship are astonishing! keep up the excellent work , and your collection is amazing👍🏼🤩
Wonder if anyone recognises their old toys. Love watching these! I had a Tonka Truck when I was little....such a tomboy...lol
I love that brush on your drill. Maybe my favorite tool on any channel
This is a sweet restoration. Loved every minute of it. Great addition to your collection. Carol from California
You know as detailed as this restoration is I’m surprised you didn’t balance the tires and change the oil😳 Nice job 👍🏻
🤣🤣🤣
Well done.
The only thing missing here was the dude slowly eating his lunch. Slowly…painstakingly, thoroughly.
MASSIVE SKILLS!!! Exceptional knowledge of what's required! Brother, . . . YOU ROCK!!!
It must be very satisfying to restore these toys from an unrestorable state to a condition of better than new. Well done and keep up the good work.
love from morrocco 🇲🇦
Seu trabalho é maravilhoso, é uma enorme satisfação assistir seus vídeos. parabéns! (Rio de Janeiro/Brasil)
Never disappointed watching these videos. All others are just copies after watching one of these. Thanks, I kind of grew up on tin type steel pressed trucks. Amazes me to see them brought back to life. Thank you.
I had this TONKA JEEP For my 8 year old Birthday!!!! 🥳 🎉 I 🎂 will never, ever, forget any of my Birthdays or our Christmas’s! My parents along with my grandparents and 2 uncles, 3 aunts owned a company and Our mother would put up 2, 2 Christmas 🎄 Trees 🎄 every year. One for the family, one for the office employees. For the Boat Employees, they turned the Port Captain 👨✈️ & Port Engineers Offices into Santa 🎅 Land Me and my 3 brothers always called it. God, did really really bless my family…..
Stunning... I always wanted this one but never got it when I was a kid... Thank you for sharing this... It really takes me back and makes me happy (even though I never got this one).
love from morrocco 🇲🇦
I wish you had of got one. I did.
Que belleza quedo! Estaba muy deteriorado ! Felicitaciones!
Awesome, I love it! Ohhh Kitty kitty, nice tabby. Having the right tool for the job is worth its weight in gold..... and you sure have some nice equipment. Im a professional model ship builder, 28 years now and I am fascinated with your work. Take care Sir, thank you for your dedication.
Tidy. Brilliant work good sir.great video again fantastic collection...thank you....
Another great restoration! Have you thought about building out one of your walls with shelving to display the vehicles? Your collection has grown so much since the beginning!
Just a thought: It must get awfully cold snowplowing in an open truck.
Right? I thought it was odd, too!
That little jeep engine puts off alot of heat!
Usually alley's and small parking lots and driveways. Many of these were owned by service stations.
Thank you, Amazing job and what's make you special that you restore real rusted and damaged toys not like other fake channels who dip some silly stuff in wet sand then bretend that they resotre rusted thing.
I think it's really cool when it comes with a crane to get the cart to fix it 👏❤️👍
Always kept an eye out for this one amongst your “in need of care” pile… and finally got to see it restored 👍🏼🎨🔨🚙
Being a Jeep owner myself, I did secretly hope you’d have picked another colour (camo-green) but appreciate the intention to restore the original 😏
This was a really nice restoration on it was the drain newish as it looked in far better condition than the rest of the vehicle but in the end it looked amazing your collection must be getting very big now with all the planes trucks ect you have restored keep up the brilliant work 😀👍
That is a long sentence! Take a pause now and then.
42:28 use soapy water to apply the decals Chip. Makes life MUCH easier. Great work as always!! 👍
i love how simple, yet complex tonka trucks are.
One of the few channels where I can put a like even before seeing the entire video, my best compliments Chip your restorations are top notch and I love how you didn't put music or other distracting things except your skills, thank you so much. ^_^
P.S. love all the sheeps, they are super cute. ^_^
Another job well done! Your wrecker fleet is growing! Now work on your road work crew! Then I can put my skills to work in my dreams! Love little Beaker! His marble coat is beautiful!
Impressive, most impressive. The "fix it" is strong with this one.
Seriously damaged. Thanks for the rescue

As always, you've done an amazing job on the snowplow. It is wonderful watching you bring those poor, beat-up wrecks back to life. And, I know it is silly of me, but seeing the Cyclopeep and his friends has really helped on a really crappy day, after a really crappy weekend. Thank you!
I've already listened and watched this educational video. THE RED SOX ARE ON THE VIDEO SCREEN IS MISSING.
Chip please restore the orange dump truck with plow on left side of opening start of video. This jeep is awesome 👌 Thank you.
You stir up so many fond childhood memories!!!!!
