Re: my baby's hurt BAD

I'm in the process of getting my truck back on the road after a wreck as well. Glad you're okay, and hope to see this gorgeous tow truck back on the road soon.

Glad you're not hurt too badly. I love those old wreckers. Guy here in town that works for DOT has a white one like yours. It's immaculate.

Re: my baby's hurt BAD

Sorry to hear about your accident. Glad you walked away. There is this truck on the SF bay area Craigslist. Located in Santa Rosa, about 35 miles N of SF. Not mine. Good luck.

Re: my baby's hurt BAD

Good to hear you are doing ok. Make sure you follow up with the doc's.

I still have neck trouble from bouncing my head against the back window of our '72 about ten years back. We got (After some argument) a new rear suspension for the truck. I, like an idiot never went to the doctor.

I'm pretty sure they totaled the Geo tracker that hit me.
