Me and my brother had a lot of toy trucks and cars but well let's just say they got into a lot of fender benders. And we probably did millionaires if we didn't put all those baseball cards in our bicycles to make it sound like we had a motorcycle.
A basic, rule of thumb for collectables is, it was popular when new, instills nostalgia when old and was disposable. If we all saved our beloved toy cars and trucks along with baseball cards, they would not command the prices of today. But, the fun we had with these toys are priceless!!!!! I always look for interesting tin toys at swap meets. Here is another video: th-cam.com/video/CJ6nZZS1Ltg/w-d-xo.html
I love those toy vehicles. That first one with the boat since I had two boats in my youth. As a kid I had a Nylint or Tonka red and white pickup with a removable cap. I played with it until the wheels fell off!
@@carshowreporter no I had a green plastic model 60 Chevy wagon I played on the beach with drift wood for a road. And some plastic toy boats. Also as a kid I was in the ocean most of the time and rarely on the beach. If it was a cloudy or rainy day then build model cars. I remember one was a 62 Chevy Corvette convertible.
Thanks, StealthRobin !!! Finding something a little different within the auto world is what my channel is all about. Thanks for watching and commenting!
OMG... This is the most fantastic video I saw this month! I've been restoring my Nylints and uploading the movies here to encourage some people to do the same. This dude is an artist! Thank you for share!
It is wonderful to find like minded people!!!! Thanks Don!! Best of luck with your restorations!!!! Check out Don's restoration and his channel : th-cam.com/video/rqzv4m0QTBM/w-d-xo.html
I have acquired many Nylint, Tonka, Structo, Deopke toys over the years Had Ertl to this also, Some are almost mint condition including jeeps, tractor trailers, cranes, dump trucks and a Heilner and motor home. I am trying to rearrange my back garage to handle them. I also added diecast models and have hundreds on 1/64 models in my lower rooms with 1/16 1/18 cars and trucks. This has been a almost fifty year collection.. I really enjoy the hobby.
This is a fun aspect of the automotive hobby, Ronald, and you are really enjoying your collection!! Once you get your display space sorted out, you will begin looking for more room for your next aquisition!!! Have fun and see you at the swap meets!! Here is another video of some very interesting tin toys: th-cam.com/video/Eqbcy0XIKB8/w-d-xo.html

I saw one of the Minute Maid Tonka trucks hiding in the background (1:28). I came across one about three months ago. Was there a big difference in price between the used toys and the restored toys?
Great question, Dancer's Collectables. It would depend on the quality of the restoration and, on the other side, the condition of the original. If all things were equal, the original would be worth more.

Nice video Pam. I'm not into toys though but a lot of other people are in on my I'm sure this man will sell some of those toys through your video. I enjoy Cadillac promotional models. Of course you know I'm a Cadillac Man all the way when I comes to a collecting.
Hello has anyone seen a black 1965 Tonka Truck? I have one never seen another one I’ve check so if someone can tell me if it’s a rare color it would be great full
i have an old truck that my parents bought me new in the early 50's it has a wood frame on it; and a cast body and a steel box on the bed. 1 of my son's lost 1 of the tires off of it. the truck has hard rubber tires on it; i think that they are rubber; they are not plastic, can you help me find a replacement tire for it . i can send a picture if you give me an e-mail Tony

I remember seeing my older cousin's Tonka trucks when I was a kid. Good memories.
They were the Cadillac of cast and tin toys!!! Do you remember the hours of playing with them in the dirt?

The Hi way trucks are very cool Especially the custom made ones. My favorite of the Big Tonkas.

@@davemcguigan218 Thanks so much for sharing those, fond, memories, Dave!
Awesome trucks!! I love orange truck with low loader and bulldozer.
These cool toys must have brought back some good memories, Mr. Kofi!!
I wish I could find a honey hole like this near London ON. Thanks for the video! Love it!!!
You will have to plan a trip down south in October!!!! Check out the other videos from Hershey....
I grew up in Mound Minnesota where they were manufactured and my mom worked. We got great deals on them before they defected to Mexico.
What a shame they felt they had to make more money by looking for the cheapest manufacturing.
This is a beautiful collection. Thank you for sharing!

Not that I remember... I have featured some in later videos.
At 5:32 the turquoise blue Ford Ecoline with camper and the blue Mobile Home trailer with truck are Nylint.
