Re: Locomobile Tow / Service Truck

Hey Rick, Great picture. What ya think around 1928 or 1929? Door Durant emblem "D" looks like a 1928. Kind of a fancy tow truck isn't it. Like using a Cadillac to tow a Chevy.

Where Are You From? Oviedo, Florida

Do You own a car built by Durant? Yes 1928 Durant Model 65 4 door sedan

Re: Locomobile Tow / Service Truck

Yes Mike, I thought that was a little strange making a Locomobile Tow truck. I also have never seen a Locomobile paired with Durant, the few pictures I seen that mentioned Locomobile were paired with Flint. We learn something new all the time. The Durant logo appears to be of 1928 vintage.
