The only information I have on it is the previous owner told family members it came off of an Air Force base. The boom on the truck looks like it came off a WW II M6 bomb service truck The winch is a Galion and is pto driven for up and starter motor for down. The park brake is linked up to the master cylinder for 4 a wheel lock up. 2 years ago I got it running and worked on the brakes until they worked and drove it around a little. I’m thinking of removing the wrecker part of it and put a flat bed on it so I can use it around the place.
