Only took a few years, and I'm out growing 1 ton trucks. I want to purchase a ( project of course ) roll back, pref. , or wrecker for the shop , and my side hobbies .
A one ton would be easy, but I would like to be able to move heavier equipment, and trucks etc. .
I'm looking at late 80's, early 90's International 4700, Topkicks, 60 series gm trucks, and ford f 600/700.
Any thing else I should be looking at ? any sweet spots. I prefer diesel, but would consider gas, as most of my use will be short distance . Most of the int trucks have a 7.3. simple and easy . I wanna stay away from any modern diesels
My friend has colon cancer and wants to darn near give him his 78 C60 with a sweet alum 21' roll back.
Problem is , this is a dinosaur and has been sitting for about 8 years . Would take a ton of work to get it going again . Brake drums are nla as far as I can tell, and it has split rims. But , gas 350 chevy, and he just rebuilt the cab, and painted it , before he took it off the road. Actually looks pretty good still
