"Cooter", the Hillbilly Tow Truck.


Recommended Posts

Here's TowMater's cousin from Tennessee. He's a chopped, topless Ford LN-8000 that also has a 426 Hemi, shortened and lowered stance, '34 pickup bed and tow boom, lots of other stuff. Captain's chairs from a van, most other parts from a huge box of leftover truck stuff. Finish is basic flat black with a lot of Rustall (Not available any more under this name) and everything else is Guards Red and flat steel..

Here's the belly of the beast. Yes, I know the 1/16" solder pipes are not the same length to the collectors...but it uses heat-shrink tubing and it was a real chore trying to get it to stay put and get it hot without destroying anything...and i really needed two extra hands. And once it was in place, i saw the mistake. i never claimed to be perfect and God accepts that.
