Wilmington, Ohio. I have so many truck photos in queue that I have to put one up every so often. This cool old Diamond T wrecker is owned by someone in Batavia, Ohio which is quite near to where I live, but the Snakedoctor and I saw it for the first time yesterday about 50 miles North. My guess is that it was trailed up here, but I saw him fire it up and move it around so, although it sounded a bit rough, I know it runs. One thing I found interesting is how spotless and unblemished the chrome is among all that rust. The guy has his priorities straight. That's an amazing array of rigging on the back. Pretty heavy duty.
Another interesting thing is that we found a similar military wrecker on the way home.
The rig in the left background is a Marmon, often referred to as the Rolls Royce of trucks.
To see more of Tom's collection of historic old trucks, look at my album "Tom's Trucks".
