I got last year in a trade this large tin toy truck citroen T23 or T45 made in France by JRD in 1935, sadly the toy was in bad shape with a lot of parts added non conform to the way it came from the factory



I bought some missing part and ready for the restoration

everything is taking apart just like a restoration of real car

the front grill was painted in blue, so sanding and polishing to found back the original



the wheels were in bad shape and got a new coat of fresh paint



and the wheels after, far better, right ?



the front bumper was broken, I used some filler to weld it back
