Many of us romanticize old Route 66 and want to go back in time to drive the road in its early days. This photo from about 1938 of the "Tucumcari Chevrolet Motor Company Road Service," Tucumcari, New Mexico tow truck bringing in an unfortunate person's wrecked auto reminds us that Route 66 wasn't a very safe place to drive some days, especially for vehicles that all had a lot of gross weight. This doesn't look good for its driver. Do you know the make and model of these two
The tow truck is a 3/4 ton chevy / mid-30's the car was a sedan, possibly early 30's Ford
