    That old wrecker reminds me of a faded red and white 57 my dad had and used in our little yard we had in about 1980 or so.

  10. I don't own a shop, but this is my '40 1/2 ton stake truck. It started life on a Dr's "hobby farm", southwest of St Louis. Still has remnants of one of the "city stickers" in the windshield. My aunt and uncle bought it in the '70s, and I took possession of it in 2012.

    It doesn't sit low, but it's got a heck of a rake.

    This shot is after doing some fence post replacement, in the back yard, and hauling off the cement chunks.

    There's some great looking bits of kit here, too many to mention, but the one in the background of Feo's post looks a lot like it the same model as mine

    You decide:
