how cool is this old wrecker, they weren't called tow trucks when and where I grew up, they were known as wreckers. One thing I like about this one, the tire covered  front bumper was often used to push a vehicle that couldn't move under it's own power, because a lot of cars then were stick shifts, and if the starter or battery wouldn't work, all you needed was a push start.

Above, a Wilkinson motorbike, and the seat! That looks comfortable!


Hard to make out, but the Moroso gold valve covers, and the wheelie bars? I think this was for drag racing


Above, a part of a Norman Rockwell. The best part.




I don't think I've ever seen a woody bus before, but it looks good!



that is the biggest fire gong, or a big train flywheel




 
the racket 4 motors must have made!


incredible kid sized trailer! Too cool!
