This is a vintage pressed steel Buddy L Sit-N-Ride wrecker or tow truck.
It is an antique toy made of heavy-gauge pressed steel, produced by the American toy company Buddy L, which was founded in 1920.
The large size and durable construction (around 27 inches long) and seat suggest it was designed as a "sit-n-ride" toy for children.
The design, especially the style of the cab and fenders, dates it to the 1920s, likely around 1927.
The toy features a functional wrecker mechanism with a hook (hook missing on this one), a handle for turning the wheels (looks like the string is broken on that) and a seat for the child to sit on while operating it.

Measures 27" long, 9" wide and the seat height is 11" off the ground
