Re: Old chevy wreckers to the rescue..

A Ford rig loaded with Fords? I would have left that mess in the ditch.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Re: Old chevy wreckers to the rescue..

Cool as Hell! Plus, anybody catch the "Bowtie" emblem fab'd into the grille guard? Truck driver's lucky he didn't lose that racy-lookin' Fairlane (possible E-Code car?) or the Ranch Wagon, although it does look like they 'slid' a bit. Yikes!

I bet your right. I drove tow truck for twelve years, still talk about some of the challenging ones. Good times!

Re: Old chevy wreckers to the rescue..

The way that carrier is situated it was a hell of a ride for that driver. Wpuldn't have moved much farther before rolling.

That was a big recovery job. I'm sure there was plenty of talk on that one. I bet it cost a whopping $100!
