Any fans here for this show? Lee's hand is up. They made a newer version using CGI instead of puppets. Good show. You can find it on Freevee which is a no charge (with ads) streaming service.

Did anyone ever think that these would someday be valuable collector vehicles bringing $100K?

This is the largest tow truck available - 100 Ton M100. The front 3 wheels do the steering - first of its kind.

1938 Phantom Corsair

Built on an extended Cord 810 front-drive chassis, the Corsair was designed and commissioned by Rust Heinz, a ketchup heir whose true passion was automobile design. While it weighed more than 4,600 lbs with its Bohman & Schwartz-built bodywork, top speed was a claimed 115 mph due to its aerodynamic shape. Heinz intended to put the Corsair into limited production, but his death in a 1939 auto accident ended the plan. The single prototype now resides in the National Automobile Museum in Reno, Nevada.

I think we have a contender for Mark's "Valiant" award...wow I want to throw it on the floor and step on it.

Have to agree with Mitch.... and Mark.
