Every junkyard has a wrecker but not every 'junk' yard has a 1957 car hauler. This Chevrolet 3600 3/4 ton truck was on its way to a new owner after having been tucked away in an east Alabama backyard for a number of years. Layers of peeling, red paint scabbed the surface of the nearly 30-foot behemoth. The Chevy V8 power plant appeared willing - with a bit of work - up to the task of hauling cars. Instead, a car hauler bound for Arkansas, loaded the big red '57 up and hauled her away.
I hope she is put back on the road as a tow rig for a classic drag car.
