Hey everyone and welcome back to another restoration! In today's video I am building a custom Tonka tandem tractor trailer with desull custom lowbed trailer. I used a 1957 Tonka farms stake truck cab, bumper, and grille with a 59 firetruck frame. I based this off a classic 1956 Ford Big Job F1000. For the rear boggies, tanks, and winch I purchased reproduction parts and built the truck Tonka should have! See links below for parts. Enjoy!
