First‑generation Tonka 4x4 from the MR‑970 line, built in Minnesota during Tonka’s heavy‑gauge steel era. Black cab and hood, yellow steel bed, and the correct tan interior with the early ribbed seats and dashboard mold. All four original MR‑970 white‑letter tires are present and roll smoothly + a spare! Paint shows honest late‑70s Tonka patina on the hood, with the rest of the truck retaining strong color and structure. Just the kind of real play wear these trucks earned in backyards and sandboxes. A solid, original example of Tonka’s first big‑tire off‑road pickup. A nice throwback to childhood days.
