TOY TRUCK RESTORATION

A while back a close friend of mine asked me if I could restore an old toy truck his son had found in a field about 1975. It is a Smith-Miller toy. Top of the line stuff in the late 40's and 50's. Most parents during those times could not really afford to spend $20.00 for a toy. This particular truck was made about 1955 (did some research). About $300 bucks has been spent on this one to bring it to it's current condition. It's been fun. In today's toy market they are worth around $500 to a $1000. Wow !
