Nice collection of cabovers. A lot of reference and inspiration for some big rig model builds. My Uncle Lester had a single screw KW cabover in the 70's. He contracted to Bekins Moving and when home, for a couple weeks sometimes in the summer, he would hire me to ride with him locally and help load and unload the truck, since he had to do that himself. I was like 12 years old at the time and learned a lot about moving furniture and boxes, as well as enjoyed getting to ride in the truck and make a few summer dollars. Thank you Tim for the showing.

Give me the factory stock, old school iron any day of the week. These drop visor, huge bumper, straight piped, stretched out, rear fender trucks that are popular today look too comical. Really messes up the look when the old school trucks are pimped out as such. Kind of like OCC choppers back in the day.

The 1 thing I never got about the genius idiots that design vehicle was why would you need a set back steer axle on a freakin cabover? I kind of get them on hoods but not really. It just ruins the look. KW was less so than Internationals and Freightliners but when I see those ugly climb bars on KWs I just think a cheap company truck. Funny all the "orientations" and even as a DDC Instructor one time "swing" past the axles was never considered. From an old pad wrapper that always had tandems slid all the way forward on 53s backward and forward that tailoring will screw you if you are too lazy to get out and make micro moves. I will not say G.O.A.L. because that is an idiot thing and takes away from the FOVon your mirrors. But it is second nature to real Drivers without stupid stickers.

@@THROTTLEPOWER As much as I love cabovers, I forgot to mention how purely miserable they were to drive in the winter I 70 and north. And 1 truck that is better off slamming into a 4 wheeler or elk or moose and even a cow straight head on. Aim for it because you don't want a glancing blow. Another big truck head on? You are dead either way. And now in a shop always tilt and lower your own cab. I owned a Freightliner Cabover in '93 and a Frieghtliner shop bent both struts dropping the cab too fast. And they still had a lot on the road. I had to sue them. For the parts and labor. So I can imagine "technicians" now that has never worked on one. Now I own a big bunk K100. I love that truck. At 55 I can still undress laying down. It's sweet but harder and harder to find aesthetician parts like the 13 speed road Ranger shiny round shift knob and that hard beige plastic steering wheel when it starts to Crack. Even windshield especially those little corners. Hit an owl that took out my fiberglass visor and had to hunt one down in a junkyard and repaint it. Could have got a stainless so much cheaper. He'll I have probably three or four brand new trucks worth in that one old truck but I love it. And it's still a working truck and probably in better shape than any new truck. The freakin promoter still works even. From original to now... a 500 kitty cat instead of the 425 and 8 bag air ride instead of springs. And on the dash two dump valves were added for the truck suspension and a 10 foot spread axle trailer. Even got the three brake valves still.

@@THROTTLEPOWER Not really. More like. FUCK! On a K100 it is harder and harder to find the visors. Everything is so hard to find now because the truck is so old. I can find a stainless visor for a quarter of the price. I like air in my seat. To be totally honest K100 visors are special order parts now. But I want original. But I found a junkyard with a daycare CO and brought a ladder and wasp spray and then had the paint matched 500 dollars later with a 150 dollar part still original. I mean the old biggest hard plastic steering wheels and the big round chrome road Ranger shifts get a little pricy at times. But it is harder and harder tokeep the truck original outside and in. Saturn Transportation actually used to pay me to sit at Iowa 80 for a few days and talk about them. After I had to jump through hoops and provide records to be hired on with them. It was a really good company to lease with though. They are no more. One time I had five million dollars snapped to the side and "wrapped". I had 8 million in the trailer wrapped and spent 4 days in Ogden waiting for a totally open road across Wyoming in the winter going to a Wolfgang Puck restaurant in Minneapolis. You are never ever late on one of a kind loads. Seriously some loads are big money on percentage. Yeah 80 percent with detention and holdover due to weather. A week late and shutting down paid is better than 6 months and totally remained. Loading off "the line" is a pain in the ass and takes a while but that is or used to be pad wrap. Now after 4 hours drivers think is too long. Try three days. My last gig with Saturn was doing slot machines from the gulf coast to Reno and back. Haul ass with slots up and two or three days waiting and then back. Te bar at the Petro had bottled beer wit ice in it. He'll yeah. Not to mention the brokers in Reno. I worked more with them than my company in Moundsview MN. God I miss that. Saturn went out of business.
