Why would a tow truck be at MCACN? It's got a 426 hemi... in a Chevy. It was owned by a guy with a trans repair shop in Ohio, who had a couple extra hemis



No idea why a single pot brake master cylinder on a tow truck

  1. You can double check my memory, but as I recall dual-circuit brake hydraulics wen't mandated until 1968 along with those side marker lights people love to hate. I do like the vintage Holmes wrecker body. It will look pretty cool when they finish the metal on the sides.
