Charles,,,,,,, VERY NICE TRUCKS,,,,,,, wow would love to have that ford in my collection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you may not have had a flatbed but you had speed king dollies,,,,, would rather use them dollies then bang that car against the truck.

Am I seeing things correct is that a car sling on that Kenworth????

I could just imagine using an old Ford like that when it was new back when s*&t was right and towing old cars like that wagon. I remember seeing trucks like that when I was a kid and they looked so cool with the light bars going towing a wreck. The new stuff is great but I get excited seeing how it was done years ago.
