72 Chevy tow truck

[mchook]

Cooter's 72 Chevy wrecker. I built the wrecker body & lots of other stuff. Let me know what you think, good or bad.

Very realistic looking bed and tow boom. I like his latest tow, how fitting.

All around great build!!

I like it looks pretty dang cool to me.

Looks real good to me, truck would look good in my show case.

Thanks, it's for sale on ebay.  I never keep what I build. 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.

I love the subtle weathering--just enough to make it look like a working truck, without going overboard.

Very nice!

Great!!!

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.

Ah, I found you!    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!
