    Not only did you restore it back to better than its original form ! But you went above and beyond by adding the headlights and the new rubber tires and made it better than when it was new ! you truly are a artist keep up the great work I love your videos👍🏼🤩

    Welding and finishing of broken tabs is excellent. This impresses me every time!
    Sewing tips for next time: wash and pre-shrink your cotton duck, then iron. That's what happened to the original: it wasn't preshrunk, the truck got left out in the rain, and the cotton canvas cover shrunk.
    When you are sewing, the most important thing is the iron: keeping your fabric ironed gives you a better looking result.
    Love to see your beautiful vehicles, the wacky sheep, and Quality Control Kitty!

    To be restored by your tow truck, it's like it's going to be alright this guy is going to make you look like your old self so I am taking you to get made over. I am in my seventies an I really enjoy watching you. God Bless you my friend.

    When I saw this one, I was afraid it was more rust than truck at this point; but you proved me wrong! Every one of these restorations makes me happy: I love seeing once loved and now trashed things being brought back to life. What wonderful work you do!

    It's interesting to wonder if the original assembler at the toy factory would have guessed that almost some 80 odd years later you would come along and restore this magnificent piece of history?

    I have not watched very many of your videos yet but I love the way you completely restore things instead of just fixing them or modernizing them like a lot of people do with things.
    Many people alter or upgrade things instead of restoring them back to original, but then they call them restored when they are not.
    Update:
    After watching the rest of the video I realized that you also alter things, so I take back what I said about you doing perfect restorations!
    You do PARCIAL restorations with modifications!
    Also known as renovations.

    Just a suggestion - for your pliers, instead of using tape wrapped around the jaws how about using rubber tool dip on them? It would coat them in a soft but durable coating to prevent causing damage and can easily be redone when it eventually wears out. Just a thought....
