Remove the front drive shaft, tie the steering wheel to window vent post and tow it home with a least the same size wrecker, gmc 7500 or something similar. Do not worry, just make sure you tell him to tow from front, it does have front bumper right? How far are you going to have to tow? You could tow it yourself if you make a supertowbar or rent one to weld brackets to bumper. A good wrecker driver will want to see it first and have you there to watch hookup. If it has air they will have extra jumper air hoses to run air with extra foot valve on wrecker seat to control brakes from cab. Does it have air or hyd? Compressor, air tank, brake chambers, air lines to brakes? Any pics? Lucky guy, drive it with a special tag if you can get it running!
