Very nice.....

A reel beauty for sure! That museum is 10 miles west of me. I am going to try and go see it in person. I bet Derek Dangelo from Custom Built Wreckers knows that truck since that Ford dealer is from the same town.

@Dangelo Hey, Derek... do you know about this and the history of this vintage tow truck?

[WildwoodJack]

I talked to Derek today and he remembers that truck. He knows the guy that bought it and restored it. He said it was a 4 or 5 year project. He said the guy took it all apart down to every nut and bolt and restored everything, even the winch. He said the guy who bought it worked at that Ford dealer when he 16 years old. He sold the truck to the Volo Auto Museum. I went on their web site and and if I remember right they are asking $69000.00 for it.
