This is my first venture into restoring an old metal toy.
A lady wanted this restored for her husband as a Christmas gift. This truck is 35 years old. I wasnt quit sure
I could do it, but I love a challenge. I had the body sandblasted, it was in real bad shape. I restored
the tires, ordered a new front bumper/grille off the internet, made my own back door, and painted the whole thing in the appropriate
colors. The white letters are vinyl cut letters. There is ALOT done to this truck. I had to get out
dents, straighten the frame, straighten axles and a whole lot more. I heard from the lady and her husband, and
their both very pleased with the outcome. I cant wait until i do another metal toy.
