This one meant a little more to me because I played with one just like it as a kid. Thanks! Seeing it all restored brought back lots of fond memories. We didn’t have a lot of toys but we made use of all the ones we had. Those were great times.
Agreed. I had one of these. My brothers and I loved it. It's so strange seeing something I haven't thought about for so many years. I think it was that Tonka yellow color that initially jarred my memory.
I received one of those in1962 as a Christmas gift when I was 5 thanks for the memories
Same here, we are the same age, I had this, and a moving van, red truck, with a white trailer; I keep waiting for that one to show up.... Oh, I still have the red truck even though the trailer is long gone...
@@ursus353 I still have 3 red dump truck. Yellow nylint dump truck and a army jeep
Hi, so enjoy the videos, was missing the thumbs up on the 62 car carrier, enjoy comments, the sheep being expelled with air fron the truck, to see " i' m ok "is a chuckle and a smile , thanks
It looks like a perfect junkyard oh my God brings back memories
This has got to be...the BEST collection of antique toys Period.
Prob. Not. Many of us collectors out there
@@brianchisnell1548 you got me there I just watched a 5 part series about a guys house collection of toys--th-cam.com/video/mruvg7duDcQ/w-d-xo.html
I remember wanting one of these as a kid.
Here is a tip that will save you some money. As long as the wheels aren't too wobbly, re-use them. Use something fairly strong like Vantastic, clean them. Use a toothbrush. You want to pull as much of the dirt out as you can. It might even take the very top layer of hard rubber off. Which is a good thing. Once you get them clean and dry, spray them with black vinyl dye. It will bring the color back to the old rubber. After they dry, spray them with either mat clear or satin clear. That way they will have a shine. But not too shiny. When you put new whitewalls on and new caps, nobody will notice it. It will blend right in. Those wheels cost a lot. This will save you some money. If you have one that is wobbly but the tread is still good, this works on some, but not all. Use a small piece of shrink tubing right where the wheel rides. You might have to make the hole in the wheel slightly larger by drilling them out. But, if you drill it right the shrink tube will take up the slack and tighten up the tire on the axle. Use black shrink tubing. With the wheel on it, nobody will ever see it or realize it's there.
Now that is a beautiful dealership at the end.
Thank you for your videos, they have made me start recording after having the channel for a long time, congratulations on your work. You are a inspiration.
You are a true restoration artist and craftsman
It's pretty cool that Tonka still provides support for their vintage products.
Изумительная работа! Прекрасный результат!
Надеюсь внутри тоже появятся недостающие машинки. 💛💚💓
Благодарю! 👍 Желаю здоровья Вашим рукам! 🌺✨
When I was a kid out playing in the dirt with my Tonka toys life was good.
I like your restorations the best because you don't take a long time to get to the point
Wow, what a fabulous addition to a fantastic line up of Tonka trucks. I sure enjoyed the end where you showcased a number of the trucks you have done all together.
Thank you very much!
Love those little sheeps!
OMG!! Any kid with with a collection like that back in the day would be the envy of the whole street! Great job on those restorations! 😊😊😊
Hola
That is one hell of a Tonka salvage yard . COOL !
wow.........that was amazing very professional work very nicely done......but you forgot one thing........these originally had loading ramps that went with it I used to have one of these as a kid.......there should have been 2 slots for the end of the loading ramps to go in on the lower deck and a ramp holder underneath the end of the trailer
Your the best restorer on TH-cam
Thank you! That definitely puts a smile on my face!
My three year old LOVES these videos. She finds the very relaxing
All those toys for summer fun and leave them out side for the winter
I still have this truck!!
Fascinating how you take them apart and are able to put them back together without having extra parts leftover...lol Beautiful restoration .
YAY!!!!! I love ❤️❤️❤️ resurrecting tin toys that are doomed to the scrap heap.... the dirtier and messed up the better 😊😊😊👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I had one of these when I was little. It was my favorite. My mother always get a laugh because later on in my life I ended up transporting cars for a living. Very nice work. 👍
I had a transport exactly like that; it came with two Corvettes, a red one, and a yellow one... Oh, and it had a black ramp so the cars could drive up on the transport...
I did too I miss mine
i thought it was three of those plastic cars, one may have been a truck i thought. I still have the hauler minus the cars and the ramp.
@@paulp1166 After I had to move out of state for employment, my father got rid of most of my Tonka trucks, I still have the truck minus the trailer from a moving van, and a Buddy L dump truck. The Buddy L is in perfect condition because I received that when I was a little older.
Sandblasting is SO satisfying!!! Especially that rusted out bottom deck!😄😍
WOW what an amazing job! Love the powder coat finish . I do auto body work and that’s the way to go over painting the trucks . Be proud of what you do!
i really love your vids...they remind me growing up with all my tonka vehicles.
good job my dear friend
I had one of those when I was a kid. Thanks for the memories ❤️.
Nice. Had one when I was ten. Just need the red white and turquoise plastic cars that came with.
Such a beautiful collection!!
Another masterpiece. Love your collection. Please do more. Thank you
Oh, Chip, what a beautiful restoration. The color is perfect. I do so enjoy your work. Thank you.
That is a beautiful collection
Always awesome. Love watching you
Very awesome build chip
I loved the restored cars on the car carrier! Wonderful work!
I love the hand action in the teardown stage.It's like striptease with pressed metal.
Great restoration Chip. At this rate and the outstanding quality of workmanship your collection will need to find a bigger home. My garage is free!!!!!!
Awesome restoration. So easy for you.
My younger brother had one. It came with four metal cars.
Toy Story-the Chip Channel edition.
I was a 65 GMC pickup toy and my kid used to play with me in the sandbox. One day he never came back and I just sat there and rusted. Sometimes spiders lived in me. Then, one day I was picked up and put in a box.
I was sent to a new home where I sat for a bit. Then, one day my new owner cleaned off the rust, banged out my dents and gave me a brand new shiny coat of paint. Ah!! I feel like a million bucks!!
You do such awesome work on the tonka vicicles
Beautiful collection!!
so happy to have found your channel ....
You have a museum, another great job. I love watching a professional at work. WELL DONE!!!!
Aaah I wanted to see cars on this motor transport! Great job 😁
Отличная работа сэр.!
Excellent job!
That is a lovely , lovely thing !
Thank's men nice work
Very Good work on these Classic Toys, at bringing them back to life,
Oh & from the background noise you must live on a busy street, lol.
But All & all, Good work on The classic toy restoration
Nothing beats the blue dump truck (always gonna be my favorite!) but definitely top 5! Nice job!
I had that blue dump truck as well… got it when I was 4 in ‘69. My favorite as well!
That is a hell of collection. Absolutely beautiful.
Tonka toys were truly built to last. The color reminds me of Bit-o-Honey for some reason.
They were and are really great toys. Its a shame things today are not built this way
I just happen to have that truck in the same rusted condition, I like the patina look, it really sets the guest room
My new craze! Thanks for all that wonderful stuff and all your skills
Another great job
Чудная коллекция!
Love the intro with the tow truck. Nicely done. These restoration videos of old trucks are my favorite. Please keep it up.
Nice job!
Incredible memory of my tonka trailer that I was given in '75 😪
A beautiful truck! Mesmerizing.
GREAT CAR PARK
Better than new.
SOO KOOOOOLLLL.
Awesome work as always.
Mike Espo .
you have an amazing collection of vintage beauties! thanks for sharing with us.
The master with the "golden hands" !!!!
Wow really nice Collection of restored Tonkas ....keep up the nice work
So relaxing to watch. You are marvelous at what youdo.
Not much I can add to the comments already here! Stunning work as always, and a worthy addition to the earlier restorations. These ought to be displayed in a glass cabinet, or along a shelf. Truly museum worthy, and as usual, faultless workmanship.
Hey Chip you are far and away my favourite restoration TH-camr! Thanks for the awesome work ❤️🇦🇺❤️

Beautiful!
Mesmerizing.
I like the cream color a lot better than the Tonka Yellow, it's much more suitable for the car carrier. Very nice outcome!
Great restoration. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
You have a great collection, can't wait to see more!
Very good work and collection
Very nice collection
You have an awesome collection of toys and you do such good work restoring them most people thrown away
The cement truck would be my next pick
I'm very excited about the cement truck!
Awesome truck I didn't know Tonka made one of those. Real cool Chip!

"The Cake 😋🍰🎂🥳🎉🎈🥂🎊 Man".
woah … exceptional results … looks brand-new … like the color choice of the paint … nice finish.
Awsome work Chip.
I appreciate the thorough sandblasting :)
Wow is what I am saying. Looks better than it did when new. Exellent job
Came out looking sharp. My oldest son got that for Christmas that year.
How could he when it was made over 57years ago
@@geofftownsend7973 If the son is more than 57 years old...?
I always enjoy watching your restorations. You have quite a collection. Something to be proud of👍. I look forward to the next one thanks
Me gusta ver estos videos de tonka en costa rica esos carros son caros me gusts la resturacion vendito dios por darles inteligencia al tegnico
So cool !! Well done !!
Ahaaa, the car transporter, I had spotted it for a while yessss!
Another very beautiful congratulation, bravo !
Only a few sheet metal cars are missing !!
I had one of those haulers when i was a kid. I still have the hauler minus the cars. Neighbor kid took them one day. As I remember they were plastic. I think it came with three. two cars and a truck. Been trying to find those. No luck.
@@paulp1166 Hello Paul, I am French, the translator changes the meaning of the sentences a bit.
I wanted to say: It would be nice with sheet metal cars for presentation (it doesn't matter if it's original, I think it would be cooler than with plastic cars)
Yeah I thought about that later, that was probably what you meant. Would be cool to see that.
That's the truck I've been waiting to see and it turned out perfect. Looks like the junkyard is getting thin, good news is there is an near endless supply out there to be had
Nice work and your collection looks fantastic 👍🏼
Now all you need are the plastic Ford Falcons to load her up!
Nice collection I'm jealous
