    I picked this one up earlier today. Runs and drives 327 Chev./4 spd./2 spd. rear. The wrecker stuff is all there, one winch is working, one is stuck.

    those douchebag kids are hardworking upstanding guys, the one in the white hat helped build the ford wrecker, built & owned the black extended cab ford next to it, and played a major role in the outcome of my '48 4100 last summer, unfortunately he was taken by an inattentive driver this past fall, r.i.p. the other douchebag kid i dont know as well but has a badass late '30's dodge p/u with a 440...

    you should not judge everyone around you like that...

    Tony's a cool guy we met him and the rest of the bunch at B'ville last year. He drove that truck all over it was great. Creative guy put alot of neat stuff on it.
