Re: Winter Project... Shop Build Tread

Very nice. I really like the layout.

Looks like you’re a professional hooker. Is that one of the reasons for the drive thru bay? Any problems with the rollback fitting through your lifts?

Thanks! The reason for the drive thru bay and the slightly wider lifts is actually quite old. I used to do a lot of scraping before I was in the wrecker biz. I wanted to be able to bring the junker home, lift it up, and pull the converter and gas tank, then set it back on the trailer. But it works quite well now as I can pull the rollback in and take the car directly off of the truck... The rollback will fit through, but I have to fold the front arms out for the truck to clear.
