I see alot of folks referring to rollbacks as flatbeds (region thing).I assume that`s what you want,rollbacks,since you also want tow trucks.
I`ll start off with my own tow truck:

Here`s a rollback:

Here`s a tow truck or our trucks.This is what I want:

I agree with you but I wanted to actually see some "flat beds" too. There's a member that has a cool one that is in another country I've seen the pictures before of it but can't find the post.

Well alright!I believe I have some flatbed pics as well.I can`t find the sweet Hugger Orange rollback I helped a local guy with.He needed to get it on the road quick so he`d get a contract that required a certain amount of trucks in the company.It needed rear drums which he couldn`t take time to locate.We fitted 14-bolt brakes to the original HO72.I need to find those pictures.

OOPS!!Not a Tow Truck
