Looks really cool so far, I can't wait to see it completed!
As far as the friend and the toilet seat, I don't want to know that story.

 Coming along great. What color do you have planned for both the truck and the boom? I'd assume just black for the boom, but it probably wouldn't look bad in red with black rivets.  Keep us posted!

Looks like your off to a good start! But isnt the back winch thingy sitting a little high? Cut down the bed rails, so it's lower. The tow trucks around me have a lower bed, and some silver plating with those diamonds on them.
Heres what I mean by cutting the bed rails.   Sorry if it makes little or no sense, I had a 10K run about 15 min ago.

 the new style uses a lot of hydrolics, they make tiny ones, but not cheep, and the pump is very big then you add the fluid tanks, thios system is much simpler to make
