    I'm always amazed at the quality of the metal underneath the paint. The term built "Tonka Tough" was certainly true. But not just Tonka. Back in the day these toys were built to be used. Played with hard and they could take a real pounding. It's such a pity the same quality isn't used nowadays. Great restoration fella. Thanks for sharing 🙂

    In June of 1963, My family moved from Illinois to California - all of our furniture and posessions
    were loaded into a giant orange Moving Van. As it drove away and we climbed into the family
    car to begin the long cross country drive, I can still remember the Mallard Duck Logo on the
    side of the Allied Van Lines truck.
    A beautiful restoration, like all of your work, it is of Museum quality and will hopefully preserve
    the memory of when the finest of everything, especially toys, were Made In USA !

    I have/had the same semi only my cab was a different design, single headlights, different grill. When you mentioned all the rust at the front of the trailer and how rusty the whole unit was I think I know why. As a child, whenever my family took me to the beach my Tonka trucks came with me. Often they would get wet as the tide came in. These constant salt-water baths ate away the metal, especially the axles.
