  • I Purchased this 1967 Tonka Gas Turbine Cab Bottom Dump Semi Truck on eBay November 8th of 2021 for $73.92 ( $30.21 plus shipping and tax). This truck was in perfect condition for a restoration, the body had extensive rust, it was complete minus the hub caps and white wall tires, and definitely something I had been looking for. At that time I didn't realize that this truck would also turn out to be the most frustrating restoration to date. From the very start it went south. The truck came in with the windshield and plastic broken due to shipping damage. Then while tearing it apart I damaged the four tabs for the inside bottom dump panels, I later figured out the correct way to assemble it. Then during the assembly process I ended up breaking the white interior piece which cut my finger pretty badly, I ended up using UV glue to repair the interior parts well enough to finish the video and I will have to replace it once I get another interior restored for it. Overall I'm happy with how it turned out. However the process of restoring this toy on time for the video this week was definitely a challenge. Thank you for everyone's support! I hope you enjoy this truck more than I have this past two weeks.

    First time I’ve seen you have to do things out of order. Lots of respect to you from this airbrush-wielding model railroader for taking the time and effort to disassemble the trailer to properly do the inside of the ends and for all the gut-wrenching soul-destroying sanding and tacking you do. Who knows-maybe there’s enough of a charge to pull enough yellow through the holes to cover inside for the next restorer a thousand years from now to find.

    I've watched many of your videos and the care and attention you put into your restorations is obvious. It just occurred to me that the "after" photos you include of the finished restoration(s) must conjure memories in the minds of some of your viewers, specific memories of those precious childhood moments when a gift under the Christmas tree or when a birthday gift from thoughtful parents is unwrapped and the Tonka truck is seen for the first time and the joy and elation is felt. These memories and feelings are too soon forgotten and should, instead, be held close and cherished. Childhood should never be underestimated and your work proves it.

    I always look forward to your restoration videos of these classic old toy vehicles. This one was no disappointment. You go the extra mile to make each restoration turn out to make the toy look better than new. I have been a subscriber now for about two years. It has been interesting to see how your techniques have evolved over time. You keep figuring out new and better ways to get the job done! I have to admit that when you first displayed this particular truck, I thought it would not be a terribly difficult one for you to do. It did present you with some challenges, but you still were able to overcome them and produce yet another masterpiece. It was so amusing when you came to focus on the original whitewalls for the tires. You flashed up on the screen that they were "rough." Rough did not even begin to address the condition of those original whitewalls! Keep on restoring and putting these videos up! There are several imitators who also put up videos here on UA-cam, but none of them produce the spectacular results that you do. For me, you are the king of the restorers!

    I have watched almost every one of your videos and today my step dad watched this one with me, both of us were impressed with the all the hard hand work involved with the straightening of the metal, dad absolutely loved the powder painting and the way it came out great lol, and at the end, he said the before and after shots were not the same truck lol he thought it was two different trucks lol, he asked why you didn't paint the truck frame, fuel tank, fifth wheel and trailer sub frame in black, ( Dad is a retired truck driver) I told him that is the way it came from the Tonka factory, all in all, my dad approves of the new look, and throughout the video he kept talking about the toys he had when he was a kid way back when, Dad is 83 and he has advanced Alzheimer's with a bit of dementia and keeping him going is a ongoing challenge, thanks for sharing Chip Channel and we're looking forward to your next video

    Its amazing that you take a old toy and make it brand new good on you. I did notice your table grinder tool rest have a gap more than 1/8 not a good idea, I lost a quarter of my thumb because of that. Looking forward for more videos be safe Cheers.

      very talented, it reminds me of my younger brothers playing with Tonka Toys and my Dad and I building car, boats, and planes models. Great memories, especially since they are no longer here. Thank you for sharing your work and the memories that it brings for me.

      Would I dare say that I still like 6 wheeled Winnebagos much better? I was thinking of it would be great, if I ever owned one of those vehicles.

    Fantastic! Absolutely loved the sandblasting parts. I find it soothing but at the same time can’t wait to what is under all that rust. Are there holes and if so how big or how much filler to use. While watching I have often said in my head….missed a spot! 😊 Thank you for leaving in that much sandblasting. Have a great day. Cheers!😊🇨🇦

    I love your restorations. My boys had Tonka toys when they were young. They were very well made out of quality materials. I wonder how many of todays toys will still be around in fifty years time and be be worth restoring? It's great that you can still get parts. Thanks for your very interesting videos and I love Breaker.

      That's when everything was made in the U.S.A. and then greed came in and they had stuff made in China,Mexico and every country where they pay their workers next to nothing! And so these pieces of crap greedy individuals pay other countries next to nothing and have it shipped to United States and sale it for more than it's worth and then people wonder why there's no jobs in the states?

    You almost lost me with the extended cameo of the nightmare with 8 legs, but after I opened my eyes, I watched you make magic. And it is magic. Not only do you turn rust into a wonderful toy, but you bring back memories of childhood. I never had many of these toys, but I had a truck and it's trailer that I loved. Still have the truck some 40+ years later. And, of course, LONG LIVE THE CYCLOPEEP! Thank you!
