I purchased this 1954 Tonka Mobile Fire Department MFD Ladder Fire Semi Truck on HiBid February of 2021 for $155.00. This poor fire truck has seen better days, however I was extremely excided to get it into my junkyard. This truck was entirely complete when I got it, which is surprising for its age and the quantity of parts it has. The entire truck had really bad surface rust and the paint had flaked off in sheets at some point. I assume someone tried to repaint it at one time is why the metal was showing through in spots. During restoration the steering wheel for the ladder bucket was extremely corroded and I ended up replacing it with another used one, however the used one I picked up also needed work. I had to drill and tap the handle to add new threads which worked out very well. This was definitely my most involved and difficult restoration yet to date and even tougher yet to edit. It's always a battle to decided how much or how little to show of any which one operation and ultimately I always side with show more than less, I just assume if someone doesn't want to watch as much then they can always watch on fast forward or skip around. Overall I was extremely happy with how this came out and very excited to add this to Beakers (My cat) collection. Thank you soo much for watching!
