    This awesome Toy restoration project came to me from one of my amazing subscribers. His father had wanted one of these since he was a boy... 80 years ago! Lucking there are still a few around, but unfortunately most of them are not in very good shape. Hopefully Mr LoFrisco enjoys!

      Yes. Arc Flash is dangerous, it can burn your corneas. I did welding in high school, but it scared the crap out of me so my teacher let me be the "spotter", the one who watches for trails of carbon smoke coming off the welding.

    Fantastic restoration Tim. Sandblasting, sparks flying, welding and fabricating missing parts. What's not to like you folks who hit the dislike button. Restoring a 90 year old truck, I can't imagine why you couldn't get the missing parts. 2 questions Tim, were those metal wheels and what was the reason for the 2 axles on rear tires? Loved the project and you and yours stay safe. Cheers from Tennessee.👍😷🍻👍

    • @TRGRESTORATIONS
