Recommended Posts

That is cool and his legal disclaimer at the bottom is quite funny

Funny is right. Wish I had a chance at it, how cool that would be.

The old wrecker has about 30k miles. It has the 218 with a 2speed rear. It was the local mopar dealer's service vehicle. radio still works too. the blue truck is going to donate it's floor to the wrecker. too many salty shoes melting down the gas pedal. in the other photos, it's pulling a lull articulating fork lift that blew a rod(slant six). the photo with the front in the air was made in 2nd low with the gas pedal mashed. all you could hear were whining gears and that damn fan howling. to give you an idea of how heavy that fork lift is, notice the picture with my dad standing on the running board. the back of the wrecker is squatting.

According to my calculator, East Windsor, CT to Santa Rosa, CA = Aprox. 3040 miles. If you could average 40 MPH you'd be on the road for 76 hours. If you could drive for 10 hours per day, on average, it would take you a little over a week to get home.

Got a couple weeks of extra vacation time? :D It would be an interesting voyage.
