Rusty 1960's Structo Garbage Truck Restoration

[@alexishart364]

Excellent Job 👍 We more garbage trucks to clean up all these streets around here please & thank you :)

[@geo2cv868]

Even garbage trucks can have a great style, the before / after is amazing

[@martystratton5818]

Beautiful work, amazing toys, I just bought my 2 yr old grandson 3 tonka dump trucks, a motor grader, a bulldozer and a tractor with a bush hog for Christmas. They will last him for years to come

[@campfreddy3547]

Could you imagine getting this on Christmas Morning as a kid in the 1960s.

[@Bender13]

Awesome restoration! Am I the only one waiting to see how everything works?

[@The_Dudester]

When I was a wee tyke in the early 1960's, my father was in charge of the annual toy drive for the VFW. Every December there would be a large box in the garage filled with toys (we couldn't keep them, but for a brief time I could play with them). I remember playing with a toy garbage truck, just like this one.

Because not all people are narrow-minded and have the same world opinion and view point as you. Ponder on this and be thankful.

[@davestewart4234]

I was raised in Freeport, Illinois (home of Structo) They made bbq grills for the summer and toys for the winter. My Dad worked there in the 60’s and I would go there and watch both the grills and toys being made…great memories..

[@caesar7734]

I wish such toys would still be made

[@flagumby0001]

With the Sharp edges of metal and pinching hazard to young kids, Fun Toys of Yesterday are Gone Forever 😭

[@chriswhitehead8746]

@@flagumby0001 so true and they was best toys

[@Alistair-gi3bx]

@Chris Sturgill nah, thank capitalism. Plastic toys are cheaper to produce that's why there are more of them made.

[@joallawestervelt6918]

Gorgeous. I really wanted to see it operate, but oh well. It turned out really well. Good job. 😺❤😺

[@nightrider5109]

Beautiful! The Dark blue and white really compliment each other The colors really pop ! Very nice work my friend you got skills !

[@michaelsenatore9499]

As usual, beautiful work and skilled craftsmanship. An absolute artist at his/ her work. What else can be said.

[@KrazyKZs_Garage]

[@nelsonl.friday1878]

Don't have the Time, Tools. But watching your videos do Relax me after a day of Stress and Thanks for not incorporating music. Beautiful restoration work.

[@tomsheets6399]

we had both of these toys as kids - the structo wrecker and the garbage truck, great memories. My brother and I received them as gifts on the same day.

[@owl1873]

So cool, I hope this inspires some young kids to take up the restoration hobby.

[@bradrunkle7311]

[@babbetto1]

I was amazed at how calm and satisfying watching this was. No nonsense, straight to the point. Great restoration but I agree, would have loved seeing the hydraulics in action.

[@john172867]

Great job... I don't understand how people can give you a thumbs down.

[@howardbenoit7474]

they are jealious that's why ha

[@andrevarnadoe1904]

Your channel is so relaxing and fun to watch.thanks for your and skills and passion ,and Sharing this with us!

[@hobbyhermit66]

The truck reminds me of an old cigarette rolling machine. Nice job on it. A kid could get in a good day's work with that thing. Needs a couple of metal trash cans to go with it. 👍

[@robertphillips6296]

She looks nice, thanks for posting.

[@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

I had that truck as a kid in the '80s, I liked old toys even then. It was one of my favorites.

[@kathyw7143]

That is one pretty garbage truck, good job!!

[@donaldswink6259]

Absolutely A Beautiful Restoration.

[@Mspiggy375]

I enjoy seeing all the parts laid out to view after disassembled. That is the only improvement I can suggest to this video. Other than that excellent work! 👏👏👏👏Bravo!

[@williampalenik7306]

A nice restoration job you did on the garbage truck

[@paulorth2251]

Very clean looking restoration, love the colors.

[@jamesstanley3513]

I have a 50's structo garbage truck in my collection, very good condition. its nice to see this video and its restoration.

[@raywood8187]

Thank you but it's a letdown for me if I don't see something function after restoration. I really wanted to see the hydraulic lift work.

[@Chewbroccolii]

Part of me was impressed that you did this. The child in me was impressed that you did not show me how it worked at the end.

[@ИннаРогова-б4ш]

Просто супер как здорово мне так нравится смотреть ,как это всё делается ,умничка молодец

[@quartergauger9058]

Outstanding'...Hydraulic or no Hydraulic'... It is a beautiful restoration'...!!

[@stephenjackson5131]

This guy does good work.

[@tammyslash7251]

Excellent work!! Great tow job.

[@nathan7963]

Awesome video and outcome, The only thing I would of done differently is painted the seat white 😁

[@josephbennett3482]

The plastic parts of toys that old are never multi-colored they are always plain.

[@dannyhenson3141]

Excellent restoration

[@markvittorini5163]

One of the best you've done, a real pleasure and fun to watch all the parts restored and put together!

[@lawrencereid9375]

I was not familiar with the Structo brand of vehicles until seeing this restoration. You made it look better than new!

[@bghankhernandez]

BEAUTIFUL RESTOURATION

[@bluejack644]

Nice wrecker. I have an old green Buddy L cattle hauling pickup from the 60's or 70's that's mint. My brother has the green Buddy L stepside pickup with front shocks. Also mint. We've had them since the 1970's.

[@jankotze1959]

Awesome restoration, just sad we could not see the hydraulic lift works

[@hp9mm]

probably doesn't work

[@pantex5291]

A very clear video,, excellent picture to watch

[@amilcarmoncada1801]

Una prueba mas de su habilidad en la restauracion, como siempre con resultados excelentes la realizada hoy en este camión de basura Structo oxidado de los años 60, mis respetos y saludos desde Venezuela.

[@caroltanzi29]

WOW! Just love it! Super job.

[@tommyherbert3931]

Great job.

[@ChipChannelRestorations]

Awesome!

[@joemode101]

Very nice job on this pice

[@richard2mitchell]

These are just two tips that help me. One when prying something off with pliers like you did with the steering wheel will you grip it you can lightly tap the back of the pliers with a hammer so that way you don't damage the surrounding metal. Also when drilling out rivets use a cone tip Stone so it can sit in the rivet while drill it out you will not damage the surrounding metal.

[@alejandromotaguevara5655]

Me gustó mucho la restauración del camión de basura

[@waterheaterservices]

Has more metal than the piles of plastic we drive these days.

[@jamesjamison9880]

You can't say you don't love a big sexy wrap-around bumper

Stunning looking toy well done.

[@tillman1697]

Great job!

[@stefanl76]

Oh man! I have this truck but I’m missing the cab 😩, I wanted to restore it but haven’t been able to find one. Great video, I enjoyed it

[@tunit8946]

Don't know why it is that I enjoy watching stuff get worked on.

[@AlexHonsalesModelRestoration]

Wish I had such a toy when I was a child!

[@mabon4525]

I had the Structo green and yellow hydraulic dump truck from when I was a kid. One of my favorite toys! I got rid of it last year because it was broken. Now I regret it!

[@thijsversteeg9010]

Joe, again an exceptionally restoration!. I love your color choice. Overall, it turned out to be a fantastic little model.

That was a real "Body off" restoration.

[@womandela7225]

Do you ever have to watch the footage of taking it apart in order to get it back together? I know I would!!

[@joe_diy]

All the time!

[@BA-gn3qb]

Where did you ever find the new windows? And the pins/rivets?

[@ricardogaraycochea1939]

Muy buen trabajo, Felicitaciones!!!!🇵🇪

Wau Meda gusto saber que hay personas que hacen este tipo de cosas

[@trainman071]

i drive a garbage truck for a very well respected company Casella Waste of Rutland V, T I would pay 4oo dollars for this truck great work guy

[@justinmcclanahan6036]

Cool restoration, you should've made the trash thing into a camper,just take the top door off & make a sky light in it & pput it back on & solder it down & the back piece just put a piece of clear plastic on the back after you cut a hole in it for the glass & just put a small handle on it & lift it up for the custom door & cut holes in the sides for the glass,then you would have a custom made camper,but I like the paint job on the cab,is that black, dark blue or dark purple &should've painted the seat black because the yellow clashes with the color of the cab

[@timfullmer7439]

NiCE !!! You increased it's value.

[@harlembrown8987]

Soo satisfying!

[@soniamartins9472]

Adorei. Lindo trabalho. A diferença entre o antes e o depois é enorme. Parabéns.

[@rpllieb]

STEEL 💪 Very nicely done. ( CRAFTSMANSHIP)
