videos | at work | information | view | construction

1. All the boys in my Minneapolis suburb neighborhood in the late 70s had Tonka trucks. One of the Dads even worked for Tonka.Mostly the trucks were abused and destroyed or left to rot in the backyard (mine included) Now all these years later I find them and restore them for fun.
2. What do you do with the water when you're done? I'm sure you can't just dump it down the drain.
3. Excellent work!
4. awesome restoration!

8. YouTube isn't going to like your use of the Boston song in the background. Usually they pull the plug on any copyright infringement. Love that song though.
