PERFECT end to truck week. Flawlessly photo-ed, positioned in the best place possible! Could be a sales ad for the garage, the wrecker, the professional service of the Mobilgas technicians or even the spotlessly clean restrooms you keep! Ok, Ok, I did go a bit far. I have to keep in mind the relatively high prices y'all charge there! AND...the minestrone soup is awful!

@john-barry removed the yellow lettering and repainted the yellow wheels white. This is identical to the wrecker I used to drive in the 70's and early 80's. It was old then but used it several times a week on service calls to the local Chevrolet dealership.

It sounds like they would`ve marked your rite of passage card"responsible" and "industrious" Hot Drink  

 

The Hinton signage is also well done.....and that bottomless paint..............
