Not a 67-72, but just too cool not to post. It belongs to member 296Moon from London, England.

Thanks

Those are some nice trucks. I like the red one and the COE is really cool.

Here's my 65 used to be a ramp truck ,and a 66 wrecker I'm looking at buying. I'm trying to work out a deal to get the 70 GMC rollback , but not positive on that one yet. I am looking for a ramp or rollback bed for the 65 if anyone knows of one.

ameritowruston · 01-28-2009, 08:30 PM

I have some more to show.
First is whats left of a 39 ford COE with a rare wrecker bed. Only 217 of these beds were ever built.

Here is the truck I bought to put the bed on.
