8.4.8. Model AA Tow Truck

The Kit

This is a modified Model AA tank truck (GHQ #57-012). I found a spare short stake bed from which I removed the sides, then scratchbuilt a lift from 0.010" x 0.020" and 0.010" x 0.030" strip styrene. Seeing as no two rigs are the same, I just made up my own design. I didn't bother with any cables or chains, as the truck will be parked behind a fence, so the rig is mostly just "visual noise."

And here it is, all finished and tucked away where it will be forever parked, on 9 July 2021:
