No, Blue cab and White platform body, the First Corgi Rocket on the first row.

I used to collect all wreckers but there got to many types and makers.So I decided to only save the Junior Holmes as I had a yellow one from an accident set and a friend doing the toy fairs showed me a white one 15 years back that he was asking £75 so that got me hooked as it were..Heres one that survives just as a warning that plastic has an inbuilt flaw when you leave them in the car.....

I do have a couple and had a look on my laptop but have not found them yet. One picture shows my truck with a 'Dukes of Hazzard' TV car being unloaded. Another picture of my truck has a classic Bentley on the back. I have no pictures that I can remember of crash damaged vehicles on or near any of my trucks, it never seemed to be an important aspect of the job, the priority was to get any roads opened again and get the wrecakage moved and back to base.
