F60H No.11 Holmes

[Alex van de Wetering]

Jan,

I have discussed this "mid section" on the F60H wrecker with Dirk and Stefan Leegwater several times. (I started a cab13 model which I have never finished, Stefan and Dirk did a restoration of an actual F60H) We have never been able to determine what was under the tarp exactly. Late 13cab F60H wreckers only show a floor with some lockers on top; no workbenches or anything like that. I think the cab 11 early ones could have been more elaborate, but I agree with Phil that the tarp could just be to make the truck look like a GS truck. I think the area under the tarp was most likely a storage for tools and/or space for gen. set or compressor....ground anchors, welding set?. I don't think there was a bench there as it would seem very cramped(?).
