Always liked these older trucks, in it's day it was a nice rig. Probably still is a good truck.

It is a real truck. I worked with several guys that had Marmons. That is probably one of the last ones, don't remember what year the went out.
I know where one is in rough shape for 10kOLDSKOOLERnWV Thanks this. -
My old boss had a similar one, but his had windows across the top of the sleeper. Never drove that one, but drove another Marmon he had, it was a pieced o' krap!
-
Marmon closed up in '97, they were based in Denton, TX. They were close to being the ugliest trucks on the road but were beaten out by Brockway....lol

I met an old timer in a Marmon in Fargo, he had a McCall (parrot) named Chauncey. I hope they're still around...,

I want.

Says it's a 400, but given the year and the ATTAAC I would have bet it was a 425. Judging by the looks of how well it has been kept up the owner most likely knows the HP though.

Cool. One of them "Morman" trucks. I drove a '84 Marmon like this for a short time ( only smaller sleeper) and it was a really cool truck. ( except for the straight pipes) The CB was alive with comments. " Look Fred, there's one of them Morman trucks", they'd say. It was every bit as classy as a KW or Pete. Had a neat dash too. Definitely a "left lane" truck. Sadly, after I quit, the guys son rolled it and it ran upside down for a spell, ruining the motor, as well. At least I can say, I drove one just like this, same color and everything.( that's not me or the boss) Matter of fact, I saw Marmon's where someone switched the "A" with the "O". If I was ever to buy another truck, ( did heck freeze over yet?) this would be it, and it's a super deal
