cooter's 1969 chevy c10 tow truck

[michelle]

this is cooter's tow truck in season 1
they added the hazzard county garage signs to the doors after they moved production to california and created his garage on the hazzard square set
i used a amt 72 chevy pick up rebuilder and a 3d resin printed 69 chevy c10 grille from iceman collection
a tow boom from a amt 34 ford pick up kit i used legos to make the flasher light arch behind the cab and used a couple more lego pieces for the base of the tow boom legs
the rims and cb antenna and flasher lights and wood plank front bumper and cb radio transmitter all came from my parts boxes
i posed my 3d resin printed and brush painted cooter figure next to it
i used twisty tie wire for the tow hook line
i painted the cab/hood/bed /tow boom and arch rust-oleum 2x flat red primer
i painted the interior pan rust oleum 2x flat black primer
i brush painted the wood plank front bumper apple barrel matte chestnut
i brush painted the rims apple barrel matte elephant grey
i painted the grille back bumper and hook rust-oleum bright coat aluminum

i have the chase music used in season 1 of dukes of hazzard playing in the background of the video 

another trivia tidbit the chase music was created and played by waylon jennings and the waylors  and they stopped using the chase music after season 1

Great looking tow truck, I like the use of non kit parts to get what you needed.
