John Deere Farm Truck Restored

[@ivanuzanov6406]

My grandma has had this exact toy for three generations of my family, she still has it somewhere in her home in near mint condition. Glad to see a old one being repaired.

[@cprxprt150]

Always impressed there is usable metal under all of that pitting and rust! 😮

[@yootoobsuks4210]

I once had a piece of metal disintegrate in my hands because it was nothing but rust. That was the single most rusted thing I've ever beheld in my life. This toy was the second. Well done!

[@thaddeusfeldhouse6174]

I love your sandblaster and bake oven. This restoration is what they call a Mop-n-Glo.

[@jonvincentmusic]

The restoration is genuine, but it's obviously yet another example of a toy which has been purposefully pre-rusted to create channel content, like the toys on so many other similar channels.

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

Jon Vincent I have seen that before, but this isn’t like the others, I mean if the guy really has done that, he’s an absolute idiot, ruining a great old 70s toy. But I am a critic for channels like that, and I really don’t think this one is.

[@williamharris8367]

The colour scheme looks great! Painting the discoloured plastic of the grill and cab interior was a good idea.

[@pauljs6112]

As always, it's a pleasure to watch you restore these things. Too many people rush and take shortcuts that end up making the finish less than it should be. Great job !

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

Glad you like them!

[@billschipper1718]

If you don't have time to do it right then you don't have time to do it over. He does it right the first time.

[@dmarc557]

Very nicely done especially with the original John Deere colors

[@hudentdw2]

Very nice powder paint looks best I wish I had the patience because it looks like a lot of fun restoring these old toys.

[@poodn4559]

Another Lefty! I'm so glad I found this channel. If this was my video, that thing would be staying a flatbed. Amazing self-control

[@rayandkellypasquinelli4000]

So glad you put back the cheering kits at Blasting Time! Never fails to put a smile on my face.

[@frenchfry4310]

Watching your videos brings back so many happy memories. When I was little I would sit in my dad's workshop for hours watching him build, eventually helping him as I got older. You do an amazing job, thank you for taking the time to record and share your work.

[@lst1194]

Why is sandblasting so relaxing and satisfying.

[@thomasshumate9561]

The world may never know. But good to ponder.

[@tamirerez2547]

The big YEHHHHHHH before the blasting is a genius idea. It shows how deeply you understand your viewers' soul. Yes yes. Not less than that.

[@horaciodiecast]

I cant stop watching your videos. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@RepairRestore]

I love these Nylint trucks. I'm more of a square body Chevy guy myself, but the late 70's Fords are great as well. When I was growing up we had a 78 Ford farm truck with a flat bed. It was named "Barely" because everything barely worked. :) I like it when it is so far gone you can just have fun with it. Excellent job.

[@elfowl6873]

Nothing runs like a DEERE!!!!great restoration TRGR.

[@daviddiasdesouzafilho2655]

The green and yellow colors, before the paint dried, looked more beautiful ... but the result was still splendid!👍🇧🇷

[@selfrestoration9564]

Good Restoration Done 👌 . . Thumbs up 👍 👏 👏

[@fernandoh5738]

Nice combination of green and yellow. Great service.

[@normajeancaballero7959]

[@jeromelemitre6404]

Very nice restoration! So beautiful

[@cathybenson5119]

When I see those colours, I think of Australia's colours of the Olympic games. Lol. 👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘 good job on the restoration.

[@udorechner6846]

Very nice restoration. The Farmtruck looks awesome especialy with the driverfigure and animals!

[@TheGameHHH2000]

Beautiful job. That quick thought hit me. Leave that 1 rivet out of the front of bed and make it so it dumps. Of course the back railings would have to be removed. Love your channel

[@chevyman7021]

Had one when little,but the cab and bed sides were white instead of yellow, and trailer seemed shorter, loved it . I wish i still had it. Good job as unusual, thanks for the memories.👍

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Awesome !!!!!!!! Two thumbs way up , Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@EastTexasRanching]

Great restore. Glad you went with John Deere's colors.

[@CraigH999]

Talk about a silk purse from a sow's ear - what a transformation! The only thing that didn't work for me was the gloss black tires. Regardless, this restoration is really nice!

[@MrCrystalcranium]

I have a few questions...Where do you get these rust buckets? It seems you have an endless supply of abandoned, destroyed Tonka toys! Second, no criticism here but it seemed on earlier restorations you took more time to address pitting, either with filler or high build primer. Now you go right to powder coat after sandblasting. The pitting is still visible under the high gloss finish. Third, did you go to gloss black paint on the wheels intentionally? I would have gone flat black. And last, a general question about powder coating...I have always heard it is an economical way to paint because the electric bonding saved material but just about every powder coating process I have seen, it seems so much of the material does not end up on the piece. It never looks like more than 10% actually bonds.

[@blancalowrance4562]

I love seeing your show so much thank you

[@charlieb1613]

Great restore! Love the John Deere colors and the farm figures.

[@Shagnasty]

Great job. It definitely needed the farmer and animals added.

[@tommyherbert3931]

Enjoy watching you restore these Tonka toys you do excellent w0otk. My two sons got a lot of joy playing with these toys. Have a couple left.

[@shawnkahler5650]

This my second favorite restoration, behind the Seabee restoration. Another very impressive restoration! Great job!

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

Thank you very much!

[@rickysmith7921]

Love seeing the end product but man the sand blasting just hits right

[@quiksilvermanblue]

I use to live in Rockford Ill. The original home of Nylint toys. The factory still stands but the brand is long gone.

[@dennisschickling5759]

Nice work 👏 👍

[@ritalowrie1296]

What a beautiful job. Oh boy that truck must have been laying water for at least a year!!!!

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

I think so too!

[@paulorth2251]

Enjoyed this video, like the colors and the addition of the farm animals at the end, nice touch. Nicely done, sir.

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Nice shiny paint job...

[@brazillady5119]

The additions were fantastic.

[@2008MrsKim]

I give this video 4 stars...minus a star for speeding up the sandblasting process.

[@nichole7965]

Im so happy when i found a new restoration channel. Sandblasting is the best part. Nice work!

[@manuelsalazar3231]

Buen trabajo le quedo como nueva la troquita ,felicitaciones

[@mid-niteryders5523]

Man, talk about starting with a pile of rust ! Amazing the sand b cleaned it so well.

[@jonvincentmusic]

Not to take away from his restoration skills, but it probably helps that the toy was obviously artificially rusted just to create content. Lots of similar channels seem to do this. Probably because they're running out of genuine old rusty toys to restore.

[@martyclack8782]

Awsome job that was the rustist one yet great save.

[@TRGRESTORATIONS]

Thanks for watching!

[@wilfredomendez3450]

I like the "The farmer's truck" diorama at the end. Nice job thx for sharing.

[@theriley1976]

fantastic restoration. i did notice that the grill piece was pushed away from the body after restoration probably due to the j.b. weld on the spot weld areas. nonetheless another outstanding restore of a great toy. kudos.

I saw "John Deere farm truck restored" and came here to watch. Shrinking it down to a small size certainly makes the restoration easy, but how do you make it big again? :)

[@TheTophat1962]

Can't go wrong with John Deere green.😁 I'm in the process of repainting my John Deere mower as we speak. Looks very nice especially with the oinkers and moo cows. Thanks for a super nice restore.

[@Bender13]

I’m always amazed at how rusted these projects are. Where were they left for so long? It’s amazing how the weather and sun will destroy metal if left outdoors long enough. Great restoration!

[@PrayerRider]

Well, I would guess back yards, buried in the dirt by little boys, or forgotten in fields or places of tall grass. You know how little boys used to love to play with trucks and cars in the dirt. Or perhaps left in old sheds or barns or other buildings on farms. Or maybe left in damp old cellars or hot old attics. All kinds of places these lovely little old toys could have been left where moisture could get in and turn them rusty. So glad to see that somebody fixes these beautiful pieces of the past! I would be thrilled to pieces to run across the kinds of old trucks and cars that these restorers show us, and try and fix them up myself. Maybe in my metal detecting if the dang smoke goes away before summer is over.

You managed to find both pieces, impressive. Did it come as the set, or did you have to do some searching?

Love the colour combination!

[@allanmanley6340]

Question: If you get a "thin spot" after you have powder coated a part, can you recoat that area? And can you do two colours with powder?

Ok!! I know nothing about cars/trucks, but this reminded me so much of my grandpa's old blue Ford pick-up. It was older than I was and he drove it until the floors were completely rusted through.

[@diecastdungeon8970]

Thank You ! You never miss in putting a smile on my face with your fantastic videos and super restorations. You have a knack for doing both VERY well.

Very nice project. My only criticism is the wheels, I’d have like if you did the centers and the letters in white, but that’s just me.

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

That looked better before, but it would just collapse, so this isn’t a restoration, it’s a saviour.
