    it is LHD truck made for Spaine. yep, later versions are with ISX, ISMe, ISLe.

    One more cabover with ISX
    kamaz-6522.jpg kamaz-6522-s-dvigatelem-cummins.jpg
    Intercooler is located beyong cab.

    Really Cabovers with ISX are rare. Engine is too tall and lond. But new ISX 11.9 fits any EU truck and seems to me will be used by ERF, ore Russian truck maker soon

    As far as I can remember MAN took over ERF and stoped making them a few years ago.
    The last ones I saw looked like TGA cabs with ERF grills , Cummins , Fuller/Eaton, Merritor/Rockwell set up.

    BTW the DAF's we get here now come with Merritor axles.

    I'm not sure but they were made till end of 2007. Now they do not sell ERF baged trucks but they have some ideas to renew ERF for special purpose trucks. I do not really know

    really face of any truck is cabine.

    some truck makers lost cab manufacturing, like ERF, Sisu....

    If company makes cab and frame, they can use any engine (Cummins, Deutz, Cat, Merceses....) any Axels, any tranny. But if truck manufacter purchase cabs, it loose its business
