I hope you guys will consider this an emergency vehicle. This is a build that replicates a real truck that sat in the weeds and no longer exist- Only by the grace of this model and the pictures I got of it. Its been sent to scrap heaven. The engine is a resin cast 300 6 cylinder I made. The bed and boom is scratchbuilt. Fenders , cab, wheels from the parts box. Lettering is hand painted - This was built in the late 80's when making my own decals was not thought of Thanks for looking

Yes wreckers are emergency vehicles (as defined by law when at a crash scene). This old wrecker looks good and you've preserved her memory well with this tribute model. Good job she looks good.
