Well got my little tow truck figures out and build between weeks in the hospital
and to sick to get out there, but man it felt so good when I could get up the gumption to get er done.
This was made with walnut and oak.
The wheels were left overs from other projects.
I used the oldest tanker plans from Toys and Joy to make the frame and bonnet so I would think this is a ton and a half body style.
I lowered the roof down a tad and also the frame for a more custom look not as much of a wooded toy look?
The crane was modeled after what was used at the time for many a home built tow truck.
