1966 Unimog flatbed tow truck... with an innovative tilt rear wheel assembly that is brilliant





 sorta makes you wonder why this didn't become more common as a design... it would be very useful in a small scale for wheelchairs, motorcycles, boats, jet-skis etc




 the above is the rear wheel hubcap
I don't remember ever seeing anything like this before! Proves to me that there are still cool vehicles to see, but they aren't coming to many shows, and I have to keep going to shows I haven't been to in order to find them

33 or 34 Model AA tow truck, Muckenthaler 2012 concours
