1960s Buddy L Ladder Fire Truck Restoration 

My Aunt and Uncle picked up this 1960s Buddy L Ladder Fire Truck in July of 2020 for me from a flea market. It's my worst condition truck yet missing an axle and two wheels, the ladders, the front brush guard, the signal emergency light. The rear of the truck body was crushed as well as the front of the semi body. The ladder was extremely mangled and everything was rusty. This toy was begging for attention and to be restored to new quality. Thank you for watching!
