Andrew Weusthoff built this very unusual Mack CH flatbed recovery/tow truck based on a prototype private tow truck that operates in St. Louis. Andrew reports the owner said he chose it because he rarely sees any Mack tow trucks. The Mack CH is from Herpa, the 26' bed was scratchbuilt from Evergreen styrene. The toolboxes below the bed were also scratchbuilt, the wheels are from A-Line and, of course, the Ford Galaxie on the back is the Atlas/Masterpiece model. Additional details include photo etched mirrors from Plano Model Products and fuel tank steps.
