I remember these. My Dad worked at one of the first Volkswagen dealerships back in 1962. I recall my Mom crying because she no one would ever want one of these weird cars and we’d starve! Dad retired from from Volkswagen after 21 years. He brought one of these cars home to me, the dealerships carried them to sell. Oh, obviously we didn’t starve, and I owned many Volkswagens over the years. I like the color, it brought back great memories.

[@MidIslandCustomDiecast]

Lol, that edit your did when you were putting the wheels back on the axle was simply hilarious. The restoration looks fantastic as well. Great job.

[@CoolRestorations]

😁😁😁😁 Thank you! I was thinking to do it or to remove it, and then I said who cares and left it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jesusfernandodrylander1201]

Great, dude!! Anyway... You'd paint the lights and the 'VW' Logo in silver by hand. I'm a Volkswagen lover!! Congratulations from Spain!! 🧔🏻👍🏻🇪🇸

[@RestorationAustralia]

Nice Tonka well done.

[@CoolRestorations]

Thank you and hello to Australia!🌍

[@RestorationAustralia]

@@CoolRestorations No worries.

[@Primus54]

Well done as usual! Pro-tip from a car detailer. Buy some Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish ($8.44/10 oz. can on Amazon). It is a paste... use a small dab on a microfiber on the plastic windows, lightly rub in, then buff off. Repeat as needed until clear and scratch-free. Works wonders. Cheers!

[@CoolRestorations]

Oh that would be great for me, I wish I had time to order new window. I polished this one one for so long and it only got worse. Also had lots of cracks :( Thank you for watching!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@MidIslandCustomDiecast]

@@CoolRestorations I use flitz polish on my plastic windshields in my restorations. It works amazingly well too. Sometimes you have to wet sand first depending on how deep the scratches are.

[@Primus54]

@@CoolRestorations: You are welcome. We use it to restore foggy plastic headlights and taillights (then protect with a couple of coats of spray UV clear coat), and also dashboard gauges that get scratched from people not using the correct methods to clean them (never glass cleaner and paper towels!). Also, once you get the window assembly polished, you might dip it in clear acrylic floor polish, remove slowly to prevent bubbles, then cover with a bowl until dry. Should protect it for years. Looking forward to your next video! ~ John from Ohio

[@Primus54]

@@MidIslandCustomDiecast: Yup! Good tip! I’d recommend starting with 4000 grit and move coarser if needed.

[@mikhaxl]

Awesome restoration. Definitely reminded me of when I was a kid. I used to have a few hotwheel cars like that.

[@CoolRestorations]

Thank you!!!!😍😍😍

[@morebetterrestorations7987]

You got my attention hammering that wheel back on lol. Excellent job, I like the color change!

[@CoolRestorations]

Haha, I hope you liked it :-) Thank you man!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@thijsversteeg9010]

Nice piece of work! A small note, I think a clear topcoat would have provided more shine.

[@CoolRestorations]

Thank you! Yeah probably should have done that! I have another Tonka VW laying around, should I restore it also?

[@thijsversteeg9010]

@@CoolRestorations of course !!

[@razorboyXVII]

[@ar_restoration]

Great job!👍👍I have a same car need restore too : )

[@CoolRestorations]

Maybe you should try doing Hydro Dipping on it?🤔Its fits the style!

[@ar_restoration]

@@CoolRestorations never tried, I'll consider to try it. Thank you!

Thank you!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@Alex_the_Hoarder]

That's great work! May I ask where you got the headlights from? They seem to be near impossible to get hold of!

[@CoolRestorations]

Gasoline Ally or Ebay 👍👍👍

[@Alex_the_Hoarder]

@@CoolRestorations Gasoline Alley had none for the Beetle sadly, they don't make that part! Ebay has nothing either. Thank you though!

[@mulletmansean2480]

Could you tell me where I could get new plastic windshield cause mine is cracked

[@CoolRestorations]

Hello mate, I would check on "Gasoline Ally" . . . Its a old toy online store for parts. 👍🏼

[@simplymonke5277]

Nice and also rip your walls they got spray painted lol

[@CoolRestorations]

Did they really? Or maybe it's the masking carboard cover protection I put up that got the paint on it?=)
