then anything on the market today. One of these companies is Guaranteed Motor Services Towing of New Brunswick, New Jersey. Some of their trucks are shown below but because of the number of Oshkosh trucks they have I decided to show them as the feature trucks of this page. |

point. It was truly amazing as to how much snow this vehicle could push. It was the Truck of Trucks. In the summer larger tires were swapped on and it was used to haul fire wood. Eventually it proved to be excessive for my short driveway and it found a happy home with a new owner with a much longer driveway (over 1/2 mile long if I remember correctly). |

| This truck is owned by David Tarsi. He has the following to say
about his truck.
" I live in the western part of the upper peninsula of Michigan near Watersmeet MI. I live off-grid and keep my home open in the winter, a 6 mile plow one-way. I own a 1954-1959 Oshkosh plowing truck model W-825. A Picture is attached. I love it! It really makes plowing a lot easier than my Chev truck with a boss V-plow. Since I owned this I never had to winch my Chevy out of the ditch! Just a walk back to the Oshkosh. |

| Silent Hoist Cranes were built in Brooklyn, New York. The Q 40 crane had a 20 ton rating. The company, Guaranteed Motors Towing, New Brunswick, New Jersey who was also an Oshkosh dealer for may years installed a new style cab on that chassis. They ran it for many years and then sold it to Highpoint Garage in Union City New Jersey. They ran it for many years and then sold it to Nelcon Service Center In North Haven, Ct where it remains today. |

| This has to be the very cleanest 1960
Oshkosh you will ever find in the world. This was owned by Logan
Garage in New Jersey and upon buying this they installed a brand new Mack
cab and front end on this 1960 Oshkosh chassis. The truck is registered
as a 1960 Oshkosh however it sports a Mack Cab and Nose.
This is owned by my close and personal friends of over 30 years Plunskes Garage in Wallngford, Ct. |

| This truck was owned by Guaranteed
Motors of New Brunswick, New Jersey. This one still had the factory gas
engine and the new style cab has an updated. It hada Cat Diesel in
it. This gas job one Pete DiGiovanni preferred better over the new style
cab with the diesel. Pete DiGiovanni was the owner of Guaranteed Motors
along with his Brother Mark. Pete is also a very close friend of Danny's.

| This truck is owned by Larry Robley.
His son submitted this picture and had the following to say about the truck. "We got it from the town of Showlow, Arizona for a little over two thousand dollars. It is a work in progress as it needs paint but it runs great and moves snow like it's supposed to do." |
