Cab Overs

Ford made one looked like a box then they made the cab airride.

 

I drove a 4070B International 7 years it was a good truck then I got a CLT9000 I loved it and is still the best handling and most comfortable truck I have driven.I also have driven Mack and KW cabovers I felt like I was driving blind in them.i bet a lot of drivers miss them when they get in a tight spot.

 

The CLT 9000 with air ride was decades ahead of it's time, sorry I sold mine back then.....

 

What was the resale on it when it went south ? $7500.We have a single sleeper sittin here with a good running silver 92 $2000 conservation piece.Come and get it! I thought Not.Good Riddens!

 

Before ceramic (1979),ect.Clutches wore faster.You could Pickup Cabover trannys easily.I replaced clutchs/in shafts/flywheel/joints, ect in 5 hours by myself.My Total labor $25.We built a truck 4A Man 2Drive!

 

With speed limit at 55 MPH for trucks I bet you will have awesome mileage too.Comfort is better on conventionals,power is mostly equal,just have to notice they used more V8 engines.

 

Defiantly some good looking cab overs around. I have been thinking of getting one and driving local..
