“The LEGO Town 642 Tow Truck and Car is a set that exudes nostalgia. And little against that. Despite the fact that the mutual proportions here and there are not right, it is a set that is very typical of that time in terms of style. The construction of the tow truck is not... More much and is ready in no time. In the 70's and 80's most cars were four studs wide, including this tow truck.”
