1969 Tonka Gas Turbine Cab Dump Truck No 2465 Semi Truck Restoration

This 1969 Tonka Gas Turbine Cab Dump Truck was purchased as a lot with a bunch of Mighty Tonka Trucks by a very close friend in Lincoln, Ne the seller had the lot listed on Facebook exchange and I messaged him right away that I was interested and together we had it purchased the same day, I was super excited for this lot of toys. It was the only non Mighty Tonka in the lot and was in perfect shape for a restoration. The little dump truck was complete, just very well played with, the body didn't even have any dents outside of one very small one on the tailgate that I filled with powder primer and sanded smooth. The white walls were extremely brittle and had to be replaced, otherwise everything else was refurbished. The hardest part about this restoration was the windshield for me. I first washed the plastic, then sanded it with 800 grit all the way up to 3000 grit before polishing all sides, the inside was a huge challenge and took way longer than I planned on, There was a small chip on one side that I filled with UV epoxy and sanded smooth, once it was completely sanded I retro brighted the plastic to remove any internal yellowing and discoloration. Overall I'm extremely happy with how this toy came out and look forward to growing my collection by adding the Tonka Turbine Cab trucks to the collection. This opens up a ton of additional cool models that were produced from the mid 1960s to the late 1970s. Thank you for watching!
