Topic Originally Created by midday in March of 2010:

 

found this little treasure in the woods a friend told me there was a tow truck in there so i went huntin. had to cut a road into the area as the trees and weeds had taken over. i was told that i could get the truck but had to remove the cars and boat first. so with help a chain saw and a friends camera we got them out. If anyone has ever heard of red arrow mfg company i am interested in finding out some history .thanks hope you like pics .

 

Some Images of the recovery are missing from the archives.

I know that's a 1965 Ford truck,,I've never heard of the bed but I bet there is someone on here that sure has heard of it.

That's very cool. I would run it as is. A 100k $ tow truck cant get that shade of red Fords turn when they get older. I love it.
