tootsietoy

I've been at the metal detecting for about a year now. On Monday I got my first silver quarter (1941) and on Tuesday I got my first Tootsie toy. Pretty excited about both. (hope the pics upload)

These are the first ones I've restored but the process was simple. I used a small soda blaster to strip the old paint, tucked paper into the wheel wells to keep from painting the wheels, and spray paint. Now I need to find a few more colors for my other dug cars.

"][/URL] So I bought a new AT PRO today put it together and hit my backyard for a test run. Ran over the same ground I had used my ACE 350, on and within 10 minutes found a nickel and a vintage 1960's Tootsie Toy Wedge Dragster. My first Tootsie!
