I had a driver find one on a trash route but wouldn't part with it, he took it home.I ended up with a hundred and a half for it,which was better than i expected it went up $80.00 in the last five minutes!,i never really got into it for making money,just something i enjoy,and when i get a double or a better one then i have,i usually let them go.

1958 F.W.D. Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 There is a guy here in Hellertown, Pa. that restores Buddy-L, Tonka, and other good old-fashioned STEEL toys.....He has a storefront with all kinds of stuff in the windows but doesnt really advertise any hours. He also makes reproduction decals, too. Right down the street from my house, I can spit on his place from my deck.

Terry T Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I have these and maybe a few others. Sold a couple on ebay so far but I would love to put a value on them before blindly selling them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
