One of my boys took this in his shop yesterday…nothing phony

Isn't that something , your cat is wondering

mr.mud1 · 12-15-2023, 08:39 PM

i came upon a picture today of this big block Longhorn truck i brought home from Colorado Springs,Colorado 15 or so years ago along with another 72 3/4 ton truck from Marysville,Washington.haven't found a picture of the Washington truck but i will.the west coast truck was a mess that i fixed and sold the Longhorn and of course shouldn't have.

HOG and HOG 1.Pretty cool.

**dave6672** · 12-18-2023, 10:00 PM

My neighbor who once owned the local Gulf station, "Gene's Gulf", passed away recently and got his last ride (to the cemetery) on his rollback. The procession included a unit from every towing company within a 50 mile radius. He was a character but very well respected.

A couple of old pics from back in the day, which they had on the wall in their garage for years. I asked him once about the "Ladies Day, 3 cents off" sign that's on the lower left of the 1970's station pic. All he said was, "Awww, they ate that s#@t up!"

A couple of more pics. He did not lack self-confidence.

Anyone care to guess what this is .

LT7A · 12-19-2023, 06:00 PM

Whoever set that up, planned his memorial, did a GREAT job. Something poignant, cool, and particularly sad about seeing his coffin on the rollback. That procession really makes the point though - looks like he was a character, obviously well known and liked.

**special-K** · 12-20-2023, 08:46 AM

That's neat to see he was honored in that way. We had "Bucky", owner of A&D Towing and A&D Used Auto Parts, just up the road from me. He and his wife ran the wreckers until they passed a few years ago. Alan and Dana, the son and daughter, ran the junk yard. Bucky built all the wreckers and rollbacks and they were all painted up with speedway style lettering. He also ran dirt track, which is where the truck decor came from. a great guy, hard working and fair. It's sad that he is gone
