Since I have about a dozen to choose from, I'll be sure and pick one that has that package.

Quid pro toe: Truck, Bon signs to get a new life at MOHAI
 
By SUSAN PAYNTER
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER COLUMNIST
 
Whew. On a day that the first Bon signs are scheduled to fall like scales from what will be known as downtown Seattle's Macy's store, I clutched at the thought of yet another icon and symbol of identity slipping from Seattle's grasp.

  The original Lincoln's Toe Truck, left, in front of its younger sibling. The Museum of History and Industry is getting the original.
So it was reassuring to learn that at least you can't keep a good Pink Toe Truck down. The legendary Lincoln Towing Co.'s Pink Toe was stubbed out three years ago. After the local Lincoln family sold the business to a holding company called Road One, the Toe was clipped from the prominent site where, for 25 years, it had appropriately sat at the foot of the Mercer Street on/offramps.
 
Stubbed but not snubbed. Next Thursday, Lincoln's big, fat, bubble-gum-pink toe, the foot, the truck, the whole podiatry shebang will resurface in a fitting display of giddy glory while en route to its new home at the Museum of History and Industry.
 
The nude and bodacious toe has never been the sole of discretion so MOHAI decided why not make a kitschy parade out of the process?
 
Starting at noon on Feb. 10, the Pink Toe and 15 or so of its closest tow truck pals will start their engines near Memorial Stadium at Seattle Center, forming a kind of conga line with the big pink appendage in the lead and Ed Lincoln at the wheel.

That's the coolest tow/toe truck I have ever seen
