Prince's Wrecker Service

Dave worked with his dad until late 1975 when his dad got sick and he had to sell the wreckers. They were sold to Dan Cochran who had the Buick garage in town. Dave decided to work for Dan in the garage, although he was not old enough to drive yet. When he turned 16, he started driving the wreckers after school and on weekends. In 1977 after Dave graduated from High School, he bought his first wrecker, a 1957 B Model Mack. The following year in 1978, Dave decided to add AAA service, which he continues to provide to this day. He then bought his first garage in 1980, which was located on Chestnut Street in Coshocton and was running it with two trucks. Ten years later in 1990, he bought a bigger garage a block away on 5th street where the business remains today.
