Old tow truck found
Found this the other day in my travels. It's in Montgomery, MN at a shop there. His other newer tow truck is from the late 70's or early 80's I think.

Re: Old tow truck found
Did you notice the front end from a 60 to 62 and the cab is from a 64 to 66. Looks like someone pasted that truck together. I would like to find a 1 ton from that era and put it together with one of the newer flat bed tiltable tow truck frame and running gear. Be nice to tow a truck to a show.

Re: Old tow truck found
Looks like a '64-'66 chevy with GMC grill and V6 emblems (on a chevy hood).
Can't see the GMC dash hump through the windshield,also this would be the easiest swap Nice truck!! I always loved tow trucks
