Nice clean truck!
It does like to have money spent on it because I put a lot of money in to it. I guess it is a Movie Star Diva.

But as I am doing this maybe I should make a separate post and just have my post point to it.
Just trying to help.

looking at the pix in the mega post it looks from the depth of the quary and the orientation of the truck on explosion that it may be a different truck that was destroyed. Maybe it is possible that they air bag landed the truck, and then blew up another with white spoke wheels? Seems like a lot of work for an at the time cheap truck for a high budget (Bill Murray)movie though.

Wikipedia says the following:

>>was inspired by a 1951 International Harvester[1][2] tow truck but bears more of a resemblance to a 1955-57 Chevrolet or GMC<<

Close enough for a chevy fan i guess
