Popular Post j hancock Posted July 8, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2017 Mike Yarnall's fabulous B model wrecker. The original EN 464 gas motor was replaced with a Mack 711 oil burner. 9 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 On a side note - why did you need a wrecker to work with asphalt ?? Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a dump truck before being rebuilt as a wrecker. Then could retrieve the company's dump trucks if needed. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Vlad If I remember correctly, Windsor was a pretty big outfit and it was probably cheaper to have their own wrecker to retrieve breakdowns and lift equipment for repairs, ETC ETC than having to call an outside vendor each time?? 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxfymn Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Lots of bigger companies kept them to retrieve trucks that got stuck on job sites, especially concrete suppliers who could not afford to have a load sit for hours getting hard in the drum while waiting on a tow company to show up. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

DailyDiesel Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 For those so inclined, a shot of the wrecker body. 1 Quote www.dailydieseldose.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post yarnall Posted July 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2017 The truck looks a lot better from a distance than close up. It was a couple years between when I saw it last and when I bought it. I didnt know it was as rough as it is. It runs great and has done a lot of work for me since I bought it. It seems to be really good at pulling home Internationals. Thanks for all the compliments. Mike. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyT Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Very embarrassing for the "cornbinders😁" That wrecker back end was built by a craftsman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxfymn Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Nice. You having a wrecker is like giving an alcoholic a free pass to the liquor store. 2 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
