1960's Green Tonka Dozer Restoration

My Aunt and uncle found this 1960s Green Tonka Dozer at a flea market June of 2020. I was super excited about it, since I already had the dump truck to go with it restored. The Dozer didn't come with a trailer, so I ended up finding one on eBay that was the correct trailer. One of the track wheels were missing. The was an extremely fun project and I love the way it turned out. The tracks were dry rotted, you really can't tell in the video, however they were bad enough that they needed replaced.
