1961 Tonka Suburban Pumper Fire Truck Restoration S1E3

S1E3 is a 1961 Tonka Suburban Pumper Fire Truck Model 46. I was delayed in starting this restoration. Then I felt like this might have been a bigger project than I expected. What do you think? When it came time to order some of the replacement parts I ran into issues. There were several parts I could not find. I also ran into issues with the powder coating. I ended up coating the truck 4 times before I was ok with the finish...Note I was OK with the finish, not happy. Please let me know what I could have done better. I hope you enjoy the video. If you are a subscriber…THANK YOU! If you are not one, please subscribe! Thanks for watching the video and have a blessed day. Time to start the next video.
Powder Coat:
- Prizmatic: Flag Red
- Powderbythepound.com: KL Primer

Классный результат! 👍Машина как новая с магазинной полки. На 06:00 жалко солдатика... Бедолага лет 40 провел в составе одиночного противопожарного караула.🙂 Дольше чем Хиро Онода.
Great result!👍 The car is as good as new from the store shelf. At 06:00, I feel sorry for the soldier... The poor guy spent 40 years as part of a single fire guard.🙂 Longer than Hiro Onoda.

No doubt very nice job. But you really need fresh abrasive in your blasting machine.

[@DunnageGarage]

Thanks for watching, that is fresh media. I'm working through some issues with the cabinet.

Аккуратности добавить бы. То как будто пофиг на модель 🙂 а так , модель классная

[@34Restorations]

Thank you, what could I do to be more accurate?

Did this also originally come with a fire hydrant you could hook up to a garden hose?

[@DunnageGarage]

Yes it did.
