    I searched online but couldn't find anything. This week I saw two Classics that had new paint and shiny bits. They both had modern headlights. The turn signals were a single thin row of lights above the headlights.

    I even searched to see if they were aftermarket lights. The closest I could find were these,except there was a thin row of lights above them for the turn signals.

    I didn't notice the windshield. I saw the new paint and thought "nice Classics". By the time I noticed the headlights,it was too late to notice anything else.

    That is kind of what I was thinking. Good looking truck. I guess only the new Cascadia's have the single piece windshield.

    I remember when they stoped making the Classic. It was over ten years ago. It was a sad day. By then, Werner had been the only large company that had been buying them for several years before production stopped. Back then,half of Werner's fleet were Classics and 379s.

    Sad day, indeed. I always thought the Classics were the best-looking 'hoods' that weren't Peterbilts.
