'59 Ford Tow Truck

Release Date: July 2008

Cast Number: 988

The ‘59 Ford was part of the third generation of Ford trucks. It showed off a hood that was flush with the fenders, as well as a chrome grille. The standard workhorse engine was a 292 cid. 186 hp. Y-block V-8, and the truck’s dependability made it a natural for many service station owners to outfit as a tow truck. This model is on call and ready to haul, coming with red bulbs and a tow boom.
