I would love to have his international tow truck. Wondering if it survived.

First three pics below are some Heavy hardware I had posted a few years back in the Old Haulers thread.
Last three are ones I had saved that Carleen posted previously in the other Heavy thread.

I know Heavy has passed, but wonder if anyone has spoken with his son who is shown in one of the pictures. He certainly had quite a large racing enterprise at one time. Love the wardrobe of the day. :-)

I checked out those addresses on Google Earth. 794 Dekalb is now a newer apartment building and 171 Lexington is a new building with Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Seniors Residence at the 171 doorway. Rotonda's Speed Shop is gone too.
