mchook Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Cooter's 72 Chevy wrecker. I built the wrecker body & lots of other stuff. Let me know what you think, good or bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Very realistic looking bed and tow boom. I like his latest tow, how fitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DumpyDan Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Looks real good to me, truck would look good in my show case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the room to keep them & for me the fun & satisfying part is the build itself. And thanks to everyone for all the great comments.

Spex84 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I love the subtle weathering--just enough to make it look like a working truck, without going overboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leafsprings Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Excellent job. This is the tow truck MPC should have offered. An authentic period wrecker body with accurate 8 lug dually wheels. I believe the white and blue with red paint theme was actually used on tow trucks belonging to the National Automobile Club of Southern California. Cooters truck may very well been an ex NACSC bought by the studios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be happy to hear your model survived the store moving to Pigeon Forge (with minor damage). It will be repaired and displayed in the new location!
