1965 Tonka Pickup Truck and Buddy L Tractor Restoration for Taryl Fixes All!
Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! Today I'm building a custom shop truck for @TarylFixesAll! Check them out if you haven't already. They have some great projects and are super knowledgeable. Check out their video about this truck as well!
Overall, the truck they sent me was in great shape. It was missing the tailgate and windshield but luckily those are reproduced. Taryl was nice enough to provide some cool custom decals for the doors. I went with a custom metallic green to really make this one pop! When I was done, I felt like it needed something a little extra so I pulled a buddy L lawn tractor out of my stash and restored it to match. Enjoy!

Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In todays video I'm restoring a 1940's accessory turn signal (directional) lever. These were originally designed to add turn signals to vehicles that did not come from the factory with them. You would attach this assembly to your steering column and add turn signal lights to the front and rear of your car.
I purchased 2 of these over the summer and decided I would restore both. A black one was completed for my 1931 Ford Model A Coupe and this one seen in the video was done and sent to fellow Youtuber Paul Shinn (https://www.youtube.com/user/paulshinn). Check out his channel to see this in action!
I started the restoration by completely dismantling the outer assembly. I then detached the wires and re-soldered a new wiring harness I made using new wires and heat shrink loom. I think cleaned all contact points and re-assembled the control board. Next I powder coated the outer housing. The original finish was a sort of silver wrinkle/hammered finish I wanted to replicate. I decided on a hammered platinum finish to re-create the look. I also decided to re-create the data tag rather than restore the old worn out one I had. I used a Cloudray 30w Fiber laser to etch and cut some metal stock replicating the original tag. Finally I finished up the assembly and shipped it off to Paul!

Rusty 1959 Tonka Dragline Steam Shovel Restoration
Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In this video I am restoring a 1959 Tonka dragline. As you can see, there was quite a bit of rust. The original owner must have stored this thing at the bottom of the ocean! After some elbow grease and some orange powder I had it looking great again!

Rusty Giant Tonka Bulldozer Restoration
Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! It's been a while! In today's video I am restoring a this 1960's Tonka Giant Bulldozer. Back In December I purchased an ornament of this exact model. Looking at it on my tree I knew I needed to find a full sized one! I managed to snag this dozer off ebay. It was pretty complete minus the air filter and exhaust piper. The paint was mostly there but the sheet metal was pretty bent up and the spots that were rusty had some pretty deep pitting. The rear drive wheels also appeared to be off a different toy as this would have black plastic wheels all around.
I started by disassembling all the components. I sandblasted the metal and straightened out any bent pieces. Next I filled the pitting with JB weld. This stuff really seems to hold up under the heat of my oved and spreads easy. I sanded down the filler and gave it a nice thick coat of prismatic primer. I sanded that down again and sprayed on a coat of prismatic Hemi orange.
I cleaned up all the plastic parts and ordered the missing ones from gasoline alley toys. For the pistons, I stripped off the rust and original plating with a wire wheel, polished, and re nickel plated. I was pretty amazed with the way they came out. Finally I slapped it all back together, applied new rivets, and loaded it up on the truck to go out to its first construction site!

Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In today's video I am restoring a 1931 Tonka Fisherman truck. I bought this a few months ago from a friend on Facebook with the log truck in my last video. I think the most surprising part was that the bed cap was still present! Overall the truck was complete and body body wasn't too horribly rusted over. I stripped the tractor and gave it a nice coat of primer and red powder coat. I really wanted this truck to shine so I replaced all the chrome parts with reproductions, gave it a brand new set of tires and white walls, and a brand new windshield.

1955 Tonka Log Hauler Semi Truck and Trailer Restoration
Head to https://www.squarespace.com/JOEDIY to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code JOEDIY.
Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In today's video I am restoring a 1955 Tonka Log truck. I bought this a few months ago from a friend on Facebook. Initially I thought it looked half way decent in the pictures but once I saw it in person I realized I was way off! The body had some sericeous bends worst of all, the log trailer was completely rotted out. Someone previously painted black over the rust hiding some the damage. It was completely full of pits and took a ton of work to get right! It was also missing most of the hubcaps and the chrome work was trashed. I stripped the tractor and gave it a nice coat of primer and red powder coat. The trailer on the other hand received a coat body filler (bondo), a coat of primer, followed by another coat of spot putty. After the spot putty another round of primer then finally silver powder coat. It's not perfect and still has a few pits but it's 100X better than when I started! To finish it up, I cut up some wood dowels to match the original 9 1" diameter logs that came with it from the factory.
