    Hi, Maybe this would of interest: It appears to be a Oskosh truck, with a Garwood crane, not like the C2 wrecker, but more as a Ward Lafrance wrecker.. http://www.fold3.com/image/56733888/?terms=342-FH-3A44606-51189AC https://www.flickr.com/photos/16118167@N04/6093742292/in/photostream/...

    1940 Federal 606 C2 Wrecker

    Autocar U-7144 wrecker

    Just a updat, it seems that one of the U-70/90 cab type wrecker survived, despite a rusted state...! If it was a prototype, it still exists (at least in 2010)! Restored, it would be a fantastic unusual display truck! Compare this: source: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sunsetsailor/5793476752/...
