I've been restoring it ever since to it's original form. My favorite part about the wrecker is the sign on the side that reads, "Jonesboro's Finest Hooker's." It's set to be in a scene in the movie, "The Last Ride."

There's a few guys hang out in the BigBolt section would be more than happy to see your truck. Not everyone checks in here.
