Went scrapping last night, found a tow truck!

Took the "Ace" out of coin mode last night to hunt a spot I suspected 'used" to be a scrap dump to see if I could find anything interesting. Found a old, flattened, metal bucket, a flattened metal drinking cup, a light bulb end, a broken old bottle, a 3' section of steel pipe, alot of nails and RR spikes. It was finaly getting dark and I was getting tired of digging (had to break out the big shovel) and the last signal of the night was this beauty. A "Tootsie Toy" tow truck. I am not sure what years they made this model but I am guessing early to mid '70's. Thanks for looking and HH.

Vary cool old truck...

I wonder if it isn't a little older than you think....
maybe mid to late 60's

I can confirm that as an early 70s toy. I remember getting those 10 to a pack, and I have that towtruck in several colors. Purple and red are the two I remember. Nice find.
