Welcome to Swifty's Garage! That is a very nice gift you received! It is a great looking truck. I don't have any of the Jet versions of this truck - only Buby, and I don't have a tow truck version. Thank you for sharing your nice model! I moved your post to the more appropriate section, which should give it more exposure and views.

We hope you enjoy your time here at Swifty's!

Welcome!

A very nice tow truck! Even has dual rear wheels in the back.

It's in excellent shape and even includes the box.

The two metal pieces cast as part of a rear were quite a good addition. I would assume these would be to hold a car in place when being towed.

It seems Jet/Buby made very well-done models. I need to start adding that brand to my collection, starting with the F-350 tow truck.

:toy: What an awesome first post here at the Garage! Welcome to the Garage - looking forward to hearing and seeing more about your collection. It is always great to see these diecast models from Argentina. Your Jet Wrecker is very nice - a most welcome addition to any collection. Among the various Argentina models I have had in my collection I never had any of the Jet or later Buby versions of the wrecker.

thanks for the comments, some years ago a big lot of old jet including this model appeared in mint condition, So the model isnt that hard to find, but Its a bit expensive, I will show a few more that I have soon

I really like this truck. I found one shortly after seeing one in a post here a couple years ago.
