    Speaking of that, on the way home from Cleveland today I passed several old cabovers rolling north on 71. An old Transtar II, a couple ooold Fords and a Pete. Wish I knew where they were headed.

    I don't remember...your stretching my brain...I can see the emblem but it's alittle fuzzy. I know they had it in '78 when dad went back to wrenching.

    I drove one of those back in the day for a short time. It had a L10 300 Cummins with a 7 speed. Weaker than a popcorn f@#t.

    I was hauling steel coils with that thing. It took forever to get up enough speed to shift into 7th gear.
