    The seemingly unending supply of super rusty Tonka trucks amazes me

      My inability to find one rough enough to justify taking it apart to restore amazes me. No idea where these guys keep finding all these super rough trucks.

    Even though I know that there's no danger to me seeing someone welding in a video, I always look away lmao. My parents got really into a welding class when I was a kid and hammered it into my brain a little too hard. Love the final look! Straight restos are cool but I also love seeing your creativity!

    I dig this. Love the polishing of the body. The overall theme gives me the vibe of a truck that would be on someone’s desk (desk art), or part of a trophy / award. The outcome is quite fun. Good job!

    Very very cool. After seeing the polish and clear coat - I think that looks better than the super chrome. And I think a flat color would have looked better than the brass....I think a flat black would have looked really cool. Definitely the rusty white wall look best.
    Very very cool!

  • @josephdecesaro1528
    @josephdecesaro1528 2 года назад +2

    This turned out great, good job. You could do a rust converter on some rusty parts and then clear over that like some rat rodders have done. Also you could try shoe polish on the white walls to see if they can be stained to the look you want. Might take some trail and error to get it to work right.

      I found some very realistic tires that are a perfect scale for these trucks, I'm working on getting a mold of them to make a bunch of copies :) I agree, tires for these toys are really lacking.

    Hey Tim, thanks for share another job! Can I be honest with you? I remember when you did other Tonka truck with lights and that one was an amazing job. This time the welding of the roof got weird. But don't give up, you are the best toy restorer of the youtube. Greetings from Chile.

  • @Toystorations

    I don't think it was too far gone to restore, but I dig the custom look. Needs some pinstriping to finish it off.

    On another note, this thing would be siiiiick with a trailer made in the same style
