Title: Check out a 1920 Lincoln Wrecker with hand cranked hoist?

Restoration in progress actual Lincoln Wrecker. Imagine no power take off to lift wrecked cars/trucks up and tow them away. Check the finned brake drums, HD springs and the hand cranked Weaver Auto Crane and the link to Weaver Auto Crane.

The rear differential is interesting, not your typical Model T or Model AA truck stuff. The drums are common of the era as were mechanical brakes.
