389 Pete if it were my money to spend.

Needs a bigger chrome bumper!

First thing to go would be the lights on the bumper. Too much off pavement driving for me to keep those on. different visor. I don't like the ones that drop so far. And I need a drop axle. Probably a visor like this one. And I need beacons.
There is none, I just found the photo and loved it.
I am probably going to do a glider on this though. I am thinking 500-600 hp 18 speed and dual range tandems. Something like 3.55 or 3.70 in the high range and 4.11 or lower in the low range. I am down to Hoovers or Kustom Trucks to put it all together.
May even think about a 625 C16. We have one in our fleet and I had to drive that today while mine was getting the fender fixed after a drop axle tire blew a month ago. Pulled McDonald Pass at 30 mph grossing 92k with a load of asphalt. Truck has dual range tandems with 4.11 on the high side and 5.33 on the low side.
I am going to spec it to run 105,500 with the occasional heavier load.Ruthless Thanks this. -
Nah, it will be a working truck... LOL That should get things started....LOL

Ha! You're not saying that some trucks are all show and no go, are you?? I thought you got paid more if you had more chrome?
What are your reasons for speccing out a Star to buy? Over the other brands I mean
