Old Tow Truck With A Trunk.

Screen grab from a 1950 movie, I don't know if it is a Red or International but the trunk added to it is nicely done.

 

Looks like someone took the back door and maybe a bit more out of a big 4 door and moved the whole back section forward to make a wrecker out of it. It was real common back then to take a big old luxury sedan and cut the back half of the body off to make a wrecker out of it.

 

It looks like it will be a problem to open the trunk.

 

Look closer. Only the very top of the hump opens. Not a full length trunk lid.

Not trunk, tool carrier. Pretty neat.

 

Freaking awesome. I know where I can get the wrecker stuff. The fabrication part would stop that project.

 

Not tool carrier, trunk. Tools are just some of the things carried in a trunk…

Tow coupe ? Coupe truck ? Troupe ? Coruck?
No clue what you call it, but I call it cool.
Would love to see more pics of it
