People who let rare cars rot.

The fellow and son were from Conn. I will not call him out . Karma will find him one day .

RUSTY;

The blue Wrecker?

My dad bought it when my son was born. I named my son after him and he was so proud. I asked him why he bought it and he said. "Steve if you are not afraid to knock on doors and look for work you can feed your family with that Truck it will tow anything". He was killed a couple months later

It was my bread and butter for a while and did I ever use that truck. After he was killed.

At the time we had 2 70 RR's , a 71 GSS , a 69 R/T conv. , 62 polara Conv. a 67&68 Frirebird 400's . and 2 Dusters Mine and his. I have a picture of that tow truck in the background of me getting my duster ready for paint. Yup I still had the Duster and the truck just a couple of years back.

There was nothing it could not lift. It was a 1953 chevy 6400 with a 2 speed rear 525 retriever. It won a couple parades in its prime. I could not afford the Insurance and plates when I stop using it and recently sold it when I first got ill. I drove it on the trailer for a man that bought it . Went back to Holmes for a resto for their display. This was originally red and white and built on a decked out fire truck chassis. Remember I told you all when I build something I bought several. Well that I did. The road runner was my driver at the time 383 4spd. The Duster is all I have left. I gotta fix it again.
