    What a great truck you built! Coco at the end playing with the truck is adorable. 🐾 So glad that you are doing so well since your stem cell transplant. Many prayers were said for you and your family in our house while you were recovering and we are so happy to see you doing so well. 🙂

    The fact that you sent it to your sister and brother-in-law had me laughing… 🤣 Great job fixing it! Can you use alcohol to clean corrosion off any part or is it just for specific parts? I’m curious if I can use it in a tiny flashlight I have that a battery leaked in. 🔦🔋

    • @RustBeltVintageToyRepair
      @RustBeltVintageToyRepair 19 днів тому

      Use gloves when extracting the leaky batteries and cleaning out the corrosion. You can get chemical burns on your hands from the leaked chemicals. I use Windex and Denatured Alcohol for minor corrosion. Wire brush and sandpaper for heavier corrosion. Denatured Alcohol can cause issues with some plastics, so test it on a small spot first.

    • @Nicole_0421

      @ Will do as far as the gloves go. This is inside a little metal flashing (has some sentimental value or I wouldn’t mess with it). It doesn’t look like there was much leakage, but I can see a small amount. I will try the Windex first since I have a little bit here. Thank you for the advice I appreciate it. ☺️

    I’m either so overtired I’m imagining things, or I watched this video last night… 🤔 In any event, I’m glad you didn’t end up throwing the truck out the window. 😄 It’s a neat toy and for being 45 years old looks like it’s in nice condition. I’m curious, do you know the approximate weight of this truck? Thank you for the fun video John. 😊

    • @RustBeltVintageToyRepair
      @RustBeltVintageToyRepair Місяць тому

      I resubmitted this video because I omitted a segment on remote testing. The truck weighs 1lb 9oz without batteries and 1lb 14 oz with.

      @@RustBeltVintageToyRepair Oh good, I haven’t lost my mind! 😄 It’s a decent weight for a toy that large. Toys from when I was younger always seem heavier or more sturdy than today’s kids toys. Thanks for letting me know the weight John. 😊

    I just got this set from Goodwill for my toddler but the motorized chassis doesn’t work!! The terminals are very corroded and I’m not sure if the motor even turns on anymore. Going to follow your steps here and see if I can get it working again. Might need your help though if I can’t figure it out.

    You know this toy looks VERY familiar. I’m about 90% sure that I saw this toy with my cousin (who would have been about the right age to play with this toy in the late 70’s) at one of his grandparents homes. It was set up under a window next to a very old organ I used to play with. I took a screenshot of the toy and am sending it to my aunt in the morning to see if she remembers if I’m correct. I never played with it, but it stuck out to me because it did take up a fair amount of space under the window. Very interesting repair on this toy. A bit more involved than corrosion in the battery compartment for sure. Thank you for sharing this toy with us John; it has brought back some memories that I haven’t thought about in a very long time. 😊
