    Here's my '46 snowplow... it's not a tow truck, but you get the idea. She's been sitting next to a tree for the past six months, but i'm tempted to get her running and bring it down to Bonneville this year!

  2. Obviously didn't read all the posts. Hardworking talented kid that died way too young. Your comments have now made YOU the douche bag. I usually try to stay away from keyboard toughguys, but you are a real dick.

    ya man...here's one in progress. Got a 383 stroker motor and lots of plans!! My buddy Jim Kennedy owns the truck and is going to restore it to it's former glory and then some. Oh, ya, the tow boom works. In fact, he used the tow boom after the 4th annual KULTURESHOCKCARSHOW in Lakeport to let a guy work on the rear end so he could make it home!! Good stuff...

    Does anyone have any idea what make and year this is? I'm thinking mid-late '30s GMC or Dodge. Gotta Photoshop this one, just for the hell of it.
