For Greg Rich, Jr., old cars and trucks represent nostalgia and are worth holding onto. One of those old vehicles that Rich finds loaded with nostalgia is a 1951 Ford tow truck. The Indiana, Pa., resident remembered the tow truck going back to when he was 5 years old in 1954 while living in Kane, Pa. The wrecker was based upon a 1951 Ford F-3 bought new by Zook Motors, a Ford dealership in Kane. Rich's father, Greg Rich, Sr., began working as Zook Motors' sales manager in 1954. Sometimes, the senior Rich would drive home cars that needed to be towed back to the dealership.
