10-4 Curtis, you're not far from me at all. Thanks for the compliment. I've spruced up the 'ol '46 Holmes W35 cosmetically. Looks alittle better now, than on the picture. I installed new side door windows in it last week. Looking for a windshield frame now. I plan to take it to the Wrecker Show here in Burlinton, in September. If I get the rear fenders, & running boards back on the '53 Holmes 525, i'll probably bring it also. I'll send ya an email, with directions, to my place.

Spanky, someone had a old wrecker just off 52 on the north side of Florence, was that it?

I saw it on a trip through there, but was towing a rig and couldn't easily go back and check it out!

Nice Find!
