  • Project truck update of Dick Landy's Dodge D700 Ramp Truck restoration. Hooked up and ready to go to the truck body place via Tow Mator. Can an original '65 Ford F350 Wrecker do the job?

    I think the cool thing about that old tow truck is it still has the vintage charge cards when MasterCard was still Master charge and Visa was still BankAmericard.
    I like the camera angle to from on top of the Landy

      That tow truck you see their, was my father´s tow truck. He bought it new at a dealership in 1965. It was gifted to that person you see there. I have a picture of myself(less than 2 years old), next to the tow truck, with the same front license plate number in view. Everything original & if I´m not mistaken, it had about 35-40K original miles.

    That was my father´s tow truck from when he had a gas station & auto repair service. He bought it new, off the dealership in 1965. I have a picture form when I was less than 2 years old, walking next to that tow truck & the same front license plate numbers are visible. The tow truck was gifted to the person in the video, everything was original & it had 35-40K original miles.

      A slow process and hugely expensive but we're doing the best we can. It took about 7 years just to find all the parts that were missing! Thanks for watching - T

    Just found your channel in a roundabout way, and subscribed for the last line of your channel description... I, too, have 2 dogs and a human husband, and identify as a "swamp witch"! 🤣🤣 Looks like you have some sweet rides too. I look forward to checking out your adventures! --Emily
