Thanks Tommy, they only used this truck in season 1 for 4 or 5 episodes. Thanks Alan, I appreciate it! Thanks Greg, I did use this video! Thanks Jeff! Thanks Steve, yah it's not his most recognized wrecker. Thanks Larry! Appreciate it Jeremy!

Thanks Mike, when it comes to making something look worn I can paint. But if I wanted to paint something to look nice, forget it.

Here is Cooter's wrecker that was used in the 1st season of The Dukes of Hazzard. Scratch built wrecker parts & more, Iceman Cooter figure & 69 grill.

I'm almost finished with Cooter's wrecker. I painted the figure today.

I wish when I "Threw together" something it looked that good. Nice work on all of this!

Nice job!??

I would use an A engine. The T engine is a lot different. The T has no water pump and if it does it's an accessory on the side of the engine to the bottom radiator hose. The manifolds & cab are a lot different and the oil pan is 1 piece from the front crank to the transmission tail. Not to mention a ton of other stuff. The Model B engine would be closer because at least it has a fuel pump. I think if you use a few Flathead v8 parts (oil filter, air cleaner & some scratch building) you could make an A engine look right.

I got these yesterday. Never disappointed in ICEMAN, the grill looks amazing. The wheels & tires are a gift from a fellow modeler here. I'm not sure if he would want me to mention his name but you know who you are & THANKS SOOO MUCH!. This is a great community here for sure.

Yup, that's the color and that's what it says on the label. Oh well, I'm sure I'll use it for something.

I bought this can of Testors paint the other day from HL. When I used it on the hood of this truck it was a large flake yellowish gold. A nice color but not what I wanted or anything what the cap looks like. As you can see, the hood is back to plastic.☹

I've been playing with this Coca Cola issue 72 Chevy trying to turn it into Cooter's 1st tow truck. I bought some paint that I thought was the right color, until I sprayed it & it was a High flake gold nothing like the color on the cap.?

Stopped at HL nothing new but I got some paint, next door is Ollies, no kits but a can of paint. Then stopped at a new Good Will store and found this 36 Ford & case for $2.99.

Very cool! Do you think a slot car rear axle & wheel would make a good bottom pulley? Just a thought.

WOW, Thanks! Those are exactly what I'm looking for Mike. I thought Scenes Unlimited was out of business.

Thanks, it just seems like everything out there is a custom wheel, nothing stock looking.

Does anyone know where to find any? Thanks!

WOW, that is sweet! Here's my 77 Ford.

I love it! Great job!

Very cool!

Nice start, I'll be watching. Here's one of mine. Not everyone liked it!

Not a billboard but still a funny sign to me.

I'll be watching for sure, I've been driving these for just about 30 years now.

Great group of Model T Fords!

That's nice! Where can I get one?

I love it! great job!
