Wouldn’t a tow truck really seal the deal on a collection of 1950s classics? (That and an old-school gas station.) This 1951 Ford F-3 Tow Truck was beautifully restored to its original presentation–down to its lettering. That effort paid off, earning the truck numerous awards.
This Ford F-3 sat in an abandoned auto body shop from 1969 to 2012, after which it underwent an eight-year restoration. The seller claims the body has “all original Ford metal. No rust or damage.” It was repainted its original Alpine Blue color, with the lettering duplicated exactly how it once appeared.
Under the hood is the original flathead V8, which was completely rebuilt. In the back, the original boom was rebuilt and restored, and is fully functional.
