Rob,
I got the 8462 Tow Truck a couple of months ago and it is quite attractive and
challenging to build.  Definitely worth getting.  In order for it to tow the
8448 Super Street Sensation you need to slighly modify the tire holder on the
8462 to make it wider.  This is easy to do with a few spare pieces.  No
modification is needed to tow the 8432 Dune Buggy.  I recently got the 8479
Barcode Truck but haven't tried towing it with 8462 yet.  Should be doable
though.

Thanks for your responses. I am looking to buy the set based on its own quality. Consensus is that the truck is the wrong scale to tow the supercar, but some of the smaller sets fit well. Thanks again for you input, Rob (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.technic)
