It makes sense that the Wrecker is a Diamond T 969 then (from the serial) as I have photos of assembled Canadian DT 969 Wreckers. Chrysler supplied the bodies, which used Gar Wood cranes?

Here is a Canadian Diamond T that looks as though it has a Machinery body, circa 1943. Which model would that be then? The Canadian 975A? Looks too short though...969?
