Re: Tow Truck/Rollback/Hauler Pics

Mike Burkhart was about 200 lbs overweight and hired drivers to run his cars. I knew him in the late 70s when he owned Auxillary Gas Tanks (a 4X4 shop) on the North side of Dallas/Farmers Branch where I spent alot of summer job money. I remember a black hauler parked at the shop and my boss at Dallas West Four Wheel Drive had a 67 or 8 crew cab hauler with a road race Corvette on it. Burkharts last driver was paralized in a 1/4 mile crash and worked behind a desk in the show room. Brought back alot of memories, thanks for the pics.
