Second Tonka, Chevron version

This is the second version of the Tonka Bronco I was able to get. For some reason nobody else bid on it at ebay.
I got it for $15 back in the day.

I was lucky to get it for the price. it's in great shape.

Hey! that's really cool! I love the roll cage look, in many ways much better than the other versions, as imo, the screen and roof are a little high (probably just me?). You got yourself a real bargain! bounce

Great pick-up Daryl!

I always wanted one of these. I really like it without the roof and just the roll cage.

cheers

Good goin' you got this for a cheap price. I love seeing old and classic toys like this especially by Tonka (as you know how I am about My Willow figures cause they were made by Tonka) as Tonka/Kenner is/was My favorite vintage figure toy company/companies.

Now, it seems like the previous owner really took good care of it and looks like you are doing the same. I love the design of it and the spare tire part. Great going Daryl Very Happy

I’m really liking the look of the Tonka, Chevron version. Really looking forward to seeing some figures going out for a drive in it.

Thank you everyone!

I was amazed I was the only bidder, and the price I got it for.
It's in beautiful shape. I think it got very little play time, unlike
the black version I have.

Fifteen dollars is a great deal! It's in beautiful condition too!

Great find. The one I got recently was all banged up and rusty and cost more, but i wanted it all banged up and rusty to begin with.

Thank you Sarah!

And thank you KTC!

I have the black Bronco as well. It was so beat up I had to remove the decals.
I don't plan to make it like you are KTC, but I figure to make it a vehicle for my BBi
villain figures.
