Again I found a new restoration project on eBay. This time it's a very old Tonka Mighty dump truck from the 1970s.
First, the entire Tonka dump truck was dismantled. All metal parts were blasted with the sandblaster. I used powder coating for painting. The first thing was primed with a gray paint. This was sanded. For heavily rusted parts, I primed a second time. Finally, the dump truck was powdered yellow.
The wheels were sanded with 200 abrasive paper. Then washed and then processed with fire. This gives the plastic a nice black look.
Since the axles were very rusty, I made new ones out of stainless steel.
Unfortunately the windshield could not be restored. That's why a new windshield was bought. Then all components were assembled. So that the Tonka Mighty Dump Truck looks like the original, I bought new original stickers.

The bigger the truck, the greater the joy of completion.

[@thetwojohns6236]

I had that truck when I was a kid. It was my toy man, my favorite toy. Thank you for doing this right.

[@rockerseven]

You didn't have a complete childhood if you didn't have one of these as a kid!

[@Steveman27]

Can you imagine what parents today must think of this? Some of them probably had those Tonka toy vehicles when they were kids, and where they might be watching these restoration videos with their own kids, and all the while the grandparents must be looking on remembering those days as well, seeing their grown up kids with now their own kids.

[@donaldswink6259]

Absolutely Beautiful. I would like one in Lime green and Orange.

[@teddy-3765]

Wow! Just like mine looked in 1972 when I was five.

[@georgetrev4767]

Best part is the sandblasting. Watch old paint and rust disappear.
