1962 Tonka Camper Truck Restoration

[@jeffashley5512]

Something about this build really struck home. My grandfather had a 1967 Dodge D100 that was almost the identical colour. I grew up in that pickup as I was born in 1968. Bravo.

[@jcetrangelo]

It never ceases to amaze me how perfect these trucks look after you're through with them.

[@tanwohman7578]

Watching your restorations is incredibly soothing and peaceful. Thx!

[@rosellabill]

I know. He is so skilled and accurate with measurements.

[@Greeley.d]

I’m not sure why I find these videos so fascinating but I do. I could watch these for hours!

[@ГлебНехорошев-ц7ы]

Благодарю за видео. Смотрю для успокоения души. Помогает отвлечься от дел и расслабится. Всех благ. Всем добра.

[@1011sheri]

7 year old me is DYING for that, to take on my toy adventures.... beautiful work!

[@lynnbuckley7350]

Your attention to every last detail is what makes your work outstanding. Sooooooooo impressed.

[@gmann3300]

Oh wow. I had that exact truck and camper when I was a kid in the late 60s and early 70s. 😊

[@dancer1539]

I would love a job sand blasting on this scale. It's so satisfying to watch.

[@deniseboldea1624]

Looks as good as the day someone bought it from a toy store. I love the old school colors.

[@geneval3151]

I remember this exact Tonka from my childhood in the 60's. One of my favorites. Beautiful restoration.

[@porchestra]

Wow, I had this one when I was a kid and it was in near perfect condition when my mom convinced me to donate it to my younger cousins who destroyed it a few months later...

[@ErikVince]

Love the way that sandblaster just blasts away the pink that's pretty cool

[@mroberts2738]

Saw this on your other videos. Had to come looking for the camper restoration. What fun you have!

[@lancejames9228]

Better than new. Love it. Now the cement mixer

[@SandpiperN121PP]

I love how this one turned out. The Blue and White is so beautiful! Awesome Restoration!

[@The944S2]

Now that is a thing of beauty. Great work. We need to see a vid of all your restored 1960s/early 70s Tonkas, all together.

[@watrgrl2]

My uncle had a real pickup from the late 50’s with that same color.

[@duncan5mcleod]

Ahhh, the camper, very nice job !!

[@evslone]

Great restoration. I was anticipating that the sheep would be taking a camping trip at the end of this one.

[@donnalane737]

I have this one sitting out in my living room...which was my brothers. Also the original box. Nice video...thanks

[@annettemalaski1967]

I am in Chip heaven now that the camper is beautiful! I cant believe Tonka did a top opening door instead of a side opening one.

[@ischmel3884]

Nice color match to original. Just a boat with trailer away from a weekend at the favorite fishing spot.

[@hnhrestorationchallenge7259]

This is very powerful repair👍👍

[@daveogarf]

What a gorgeous shade of blue! I kinda' remember that from the Sears(?) catalog. MAN! What a treat that was, when the Sears Christmas catalogs came out. Beautiful job!

[@jennyblacquiere3727]

Beautiful work, thank you for sharing.

[@thijsversteeg9010]

A wonderful restoration, Chip. You can immediately go on holiday with this.

[@ckmnstr29]

I really like your intro's, picking the new project up with the tow truck :) and love the cotton ball sheep lol

[@shaldurprime7154]

that tow truck is Rescue and Restore's project, why does this guy have it?

[@hnhrestorationchallenge7259]

This is very powerful repair👍👍

[@scottcurrie7589]

Nice job. 👍 looking forward to the next one. My vote would be on the flat loader.

[@RepairRestore]

That thing looks ready to load up the family and head for da UP, ehh :) . Awesome job. Love the color.

[@iceman5068]

I would really like to see that car hauler redone because of their cool and you keep up the good work you did a real good job and all those old Tonka trucks things like I have when I was a kid

[@johnkaiser8410]

Very nice! Once again your attention to detail & craftsman quality majorly impress! The reconstruction of the strap tabs was very well done! The overall quality of the project was top grade! Thank you for the entertainment & pleasure of watching you work! Keep up the quality!

[@paulstanding7267]

Looks fantastic what a transformation well done 😀😀👍👍

[@catkendall5680]

See how these toys were meant to last.... now it's just plastic crap in landfill and oceans! Love your work/art by the way👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@joallawestervelt6918]

So cool looking. Another awesome job. 😺❤😺❤

[@brianartillery]

I don't think Tonka toys ever used lead paint. If they had, the very stringent toy safety laws here in the UK, would have prevented their importation. I'm glad of that, as they were one of THE big toys of the 1960's and 70's. My brother and I had quite a few. Our dad was a civil engineer, and liked us playing with toy bulldozers, back actors, and face shovels. 👍👍👍

[@ricogarion]

Yo! Your opening is the coolest for a kid who loved his Tonka trucks!

[@ChipChannelRestorations]

Thank you for the support!

[@LWilliamsYoutube]

Very impressed with your restorations! Great to see these toys get a new life.

[@loribabcock1227]

[@fredfreer75]

enjoy your restorations the best out of all the youtubers i seen. love how you break down the costs and such, and where you got the parts incase somoone needs them

[@kirksway1]

that turned out SO nice

[@martinvs6415]

Absolutely superb, my boy, Absolutely Superb. I am starting to run out of adjectives to describe your amazing restorations. I'll think of something because I own a thesaurus and that gives me a few more words. You are going to have to insure your collection or get a bigger dog.

[@chino6406]

Uh, ok....

[@paulorth2251]

Nicely done, sir. The pale blue color is so period correct, dad had 1 of the same color.

[@whofandb]

I always feel a touch of sadness when the original decals are blasted off. The restorations are incredible though!

[@georgeshelton6281]

There was no side windows for the toy pickup truck itself.

[@frick566]

AWESOME resto!!

Utterly amazing!

[@halamadrid5155]

Great work man . i suggest to sand the truck after sand blasting to give the truck smooth look .

[@jacquelynnmartin6210]

I heard an eBay notification in the background. SOLD! it's so pretty!

I guess I should read the title of your video it pretty much explains what I asked about

Those sheep are freaking me out, man. Why are they looking at me ? WHY ARE THEY LOOKING AT ME?

Great video! Thanks for the video!

[@jonathonmason6394]

I can't believe how good they look just blastic them. I guess it's just mainly surface rust.

[@niwe79]

Great job 👍🏼🥰. Which material do you use for sanding in the sanding machine?

[@watrgrl2]

Luv the sean the sheeps

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

SOO KOOOOOOLLLLL . Awesome work . Mike Espo....

[@paulcrowe7925]

I kind of liked the look of the bare sand-blasted metal. Think the camper part would have looked good with a clear coat over that.

[@JimPeters1965]

Another great job!

[@AXNJXN1]

Great vid, but specifically, what kind of nozzle and media are you using? Seems like your nozzle setup has a wide girth to it's spread and the media is producing an incredibly smooth cut down to the metal. Impressed at those two values if you wouldn't mind sharing.
