    I've read up on the Western star COE and they are supposedly the same cab as the WHITE COE.

    Then the Volvo WIA came out and they are supposed to be the same cab.
    If that is true 8 have a project at home.
    I do love the old Road commodes.

    I've been thinking you could get a Astro and put a 12v71 in it. For way less.
    But than you would not have a true survivor.
    And all that provenance.
    I hope you do get it.
    I would pay cash for a ride.
     
    wore out Thanks this.
