Restoration of a toy truck. It was made at the tractor factory!

Let me tell you a little about this toy!
This toy was made in a factory where agricultural machinery was made. In the Soviet Union, it was quite common when cars were assembled in one workshop and toys were made in a neighboring workshop. Thus, the plants at least somehow compensated for the losses during the crisis years.
The metal from which this toy is made is very durable and thick. This is not some kind of tin, this is a full-fledged sheet metal. I think that's why it has been preserved in such good condition.

Restoration process.
First of all, I disassembled the toy and sandblasted all the parts. There were practically no foci of corrosion, surprisingly.
Then I degreased the entire surface and applied a primer. While the primer was drying, I made a new axle for the wheels (with the old axles, the wheels had a huge backlash)
I had a great desire to paint the cab of the truck and its sides in different colors, but still I decided to stick to the factory, solid color.
Even though it was an easy project, I still enjoyed working on it.
I hope you like the result (I would be grateful if you click "thumbs up" under this video).

Take care of yourself.
Best regards Max.
