This one of the best restorations I've seen.
UN-F'ING-BELIEVABLE!!!! You, Sir, are a master of your craft!
It never ceases to amaze me as to how clean and white all those pieces can get after years of neglect. One great job! 👍👍
One of my favorite toys as a kid, along with the matching red pickup truck with operable gate. Thanks.
This video is a proof everything need a second chance 🤩👍🏻 good job
You sir, are doing the work of the toy gods
SOOOOOOOO KOOOOOOOLLLLLLL.......
Great work as always . wow WOW .....
great job on 1️⃣9️⃣70 Tonka cement mixer trg restoration 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Way to go brother! Giving a Tonka cement mixer some love👍. Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the excellent work 👍
Great job, Tim! Another old classic saved from the scrap pile!
Better than new 🎉👍
Wow...that red is amazing, great job!
Excellent, as usual. Thank you! ✌🏻🎨☕️
i grew up in the 70s ,i think i remember that one. I Dont remember if i had one but i think i can remember seeing it
Glad to see you refinished the windshield. A lot of vehicle restorers will 'bleach' the white parts but replace the windshield instead of giving it a chance. 👍
Amazing workmanship. Thanks
A Jeep Dulley! First one I have ever seen!! Very nice...........................
That's one tough jeep gladiator.
Love the way Tonka used the Jeep J-series truck for a lot of their truck bodies. Maybe because they're so square and easy to press into shape?
Happy Friday!
very nice work always watching cheers KC
Комментарий в поддержку канала и ролика, а также труда мастера.
Superb video! That mug though… “Yayyy!!!!”
Good job sir... this channel really inspires me because I'm a vintage toy lover.
Greetings from Indonesia. 🙏
Wow, this is a beautiful restoration! I like the white rims by this red car.
Imagine being an ex tonka factory employee and then seeing this guy restore that one truck you used to assemble many times a day
I was thinking this was going to be a very rusty piece of work. Glad you could resurrect this smaller Tonka vehicle. Looks better than new!
Nice restoration. Love it! Carol from California
Wow what a little beauty 👍 turned out really cool all nice and shiny. Great project, nice work.
Very awesome again sir loving it!
Stunning work! I love the Gladiator chassis. Good choice.
Beautiful restoration, Tim! FYI, I saw another UA-camr who restores Matchbox vehicles use metal polish on the windshields to get rid of the micro-scratches with great results. That UV light setup you created is ingenious! BTW, I want your ultrasonic cleaner. 😂 Thank you as always. 👍👍👍 ~ John
Good my friend ❤❤🌺🌺
That turned out pretty sweet!
You did such a great job!
Very nice restore!👍
Beautiful job!

What an amazing job on this project!
Awesome video TRG!
@chip channel restoration nice to see u here i love watching ur restoration jobs
Excelente restauración soberbio
good job TRG
Great job 👍. I have an old Tonka cement mixer under my work bench. Larger scale.
I can hardly wait to restore it.
Great looking truck. Nice job on the glass looks like new
Quite a transformation. I've been looking forward to the video after you trailed it last time, and it did not disappoint. Thanks once again.
look at those muscles going after those tires. :-) It is also nice to see that you remove your wedding ring and watch to save them while working with abrasives and chemicals as you do. Good man!!
Great video
I had one of those as a kid.
Great job on the restoration.
Great job Tim🙂
Solid restoration and really cool mug!
Fantastic work! That's a clever idea to use the stirrer for the hydrogen peroxide as I've had uneven brightening results.
Great!! 👍👍👍
The before/ after is really impressive 👍
great job !
great job buddy!
Great restoration.
Another great piece of work. My fav tonkas the jeep in all the models it comes in. Thankyou great video..
Parabéns. Muito bom. Excelente.
És caminhão vai ficar muito bonito mesmo parabéns 👏 para você mesmo
Another AMAZING job and thanks for sharing! I thought you would have to apply some filler for the badly rusted parts. And by the way, my parents gave me this exact cement mixer for a birthday gift around 1965 and I still have it today in mint shape since I took care of it. The red color from the factory is similar to this one but possibly a bit darker.
Excellent job 😎
Nicely done.
That is so pretty 😍
Good job well done my friend
Beautiful job..
Incredible!
Quite the difference TRG Restorations, came out as factory new, hope you and yours had a great and safe Thanksgiving and am waiting for your next video
Great work, that was a ruff piece, great work👍, how about a custom paint job on the fire truck you have on the bench. Better yet. Do it up in your local FIRE DEPT COLORS. that would be cool. Make it a Christmas truck
You make the weirdest tea!
Very nicely done, some of the pitting looked pretty terrible, but looks about new now
Always remember what cup you're soaking dirty parts in and which one has your coffee .
Or ..... You'll get a surprise ☕
Unless you think it's an improvement .
Awesome job mate and should do Christmas theme truck next
EXCELLENT!!!!! WOULD YOU EVER THINK OF DOING A TRUCK IN A DEEP HOT PINK?
So retrobright does also work on transparent plastic? That's awesome!👍 I thought it would only work on white coloured plastic.
Top sempre 🇧🇷
I have a feeling that the firetruck being shown in the background when you were buffing the window, is gonna be the next restoration, right?!
Like video
Great restore but wait, there's more! It also mixes pancake batter! Just don't drive it onto the griddle!
Hi, great video with amazing results. I do have a question if you don't mind, what video editing software would you recommend using as there are so many different ones. Thank you.
👍
Wow was in really bad shape at first but the finish was wow 😮
Tim, this turned out fantastic!
Where do you find your projects?
GREAT JOB,
We're do you source the parts and replacement pieces in our kit
Thanks
I have a tyko orange pumpkin tow truck I was wondering if I could send it in to have it restored
What is the sound bite from?
where do you buy your rivetts and the press ?
2💝
Not sure, but I think I had this cement mixer as a child.
But, that was before 1970.
How long was this mixer made?
Where can I buy the rivet clamp?
Question. I noticed that on some toys you use the acetone and out gassing steps, but not always. Is it because the metal is exceptionally dirty and rusty? Does it help the paint adhere better? Just curious. Another great job😁👍
Probably it's just a matter of not showing always the same repetitive procedure, that's a step that you always need to do after you sandblast the pieces, because that can always be some residue to eliminate before priming them. :)
Where did you find the funnel for this?
It's one of two things - and you don't have to respond to this because it's no one's business, but - you are either NOT married, or you are married to one hell of an awesome woman! No "in between man" would even have a chance at enjoying such a refined hobby.
Had some heavy metal at the time today's metal wouldn't stand to that abuse after so long
