Even the Japanese Automobile Federation recognizes that sometimes cars break down or they come to be in an accident, and then it's good that there are tow trucks to take the vehicle away. And with so many free papercraft cars out there, obviously you also need a free papercraft tow truck. 🙂

Hi! As for 2023, the website has changed. The good news, the papercraft still exists, here is the link.

Thank you for letting people know! You're right, this papercraft was only made available for a short while on the original website and after that the webpage with the download link was removed, but apparantly the file itself was left leaving it available for people to download if they know how the find the download link.
DeleteSometimes the Wayback Machine https://web.archive.org/) helps with finding old (download) URLs, but in this case, the actual file didn't get archived during the short time it was originally available. Another option in theses specific cases (where they removed the webpage but not the file and you know what to look for) is to do a Google 'site search': put your search term (like the japanese word for papercraft: ペーパークラフト in this case) and then site: in front of the domain name of the URL like this: ペーパークラフト site:https://jaf.or.jp/ and then sometimes you can still find the file you're looking for like in this case! :o)
I never share direct links to papercrafts or upload them myself on my own blogposts or website though unless the original owner or creator of the papercraft gives me explicit permission to do so, because there are a lot of websites and people that just don't want me to if they made a papercraft available a limited time only or something like that and I hope you can understand that, even if it means that many fun papercrafts become unavailable over time unfortunately... (it would also just take way too much time and storage page for me to keep track of all of it I'm afraid...) :o(
I'll leave this comment up though with this reply, so maybe other people can use these tricks too and who knows maybe they will be able to find some old papercrafts they like the same way? :o)
Have fun!
