Thanks for sharing Ted. I’m always looking for good pictures of old trucks, mainly to help with restorations, so I’ll stay tuned.
 
Thanks so Much! Did you build the tow truck body from scratch? Seems I saw an earlier photo with it mocked up with one fender.
 
No GB i didn't build that one a buddy here did ,it was in very bad shape at least the cab was he had to pull it completely apart ,This next truck is a metal finished NZ one

Now those are trucks to be admired. I like old cars but love old trucks of any size or vintage. The truck thing probably comes from being a log truck driver when I was young.
 
So the paint job on the tow truck in the video was recently applied? If so, it's the best job of it I have ever seen.
 
And Epper, I love the two tone in your avatar. Can you post up some pics. I have a red pickup too, but that red/white is so retro!
