. Well here we go. BACK "in the day" we had a 82 Cruiseliner. It was only 5 years old. 350 Mack with the front ATAAC Fuller 10 speed, which sucked, 3.87 ratio on tall 24.5's. Truck was 185 W.B. We did install air ride cab. That truck rode so hard the windshields settled and cut the rubber on the bottom. Now I pulled a Bullrack so there are a lot of empty miles. Oh it 34,000 camelback. Fast forward to today. I run an 83 Cruiseliner that has an E9 shorter W.B. but has Neway suspension. As bad as that 82 rode this one rides to the good! I honestly say this truck rides as good as most any up to date conventinal ive run. It really is a VERY nice riding truck

G model production 1959-1962
Thanks. I knew the G model was short lived. Love to be able to afford a G along with another clean F and then a MH Magnum. Not that I want much

So the F model enjoyed a 19 production run?
-
When did production of the G model cease?
-
Do you suppose it was an R700 that has been "updated"?

One of those schemes looks familiar...
Hey thanks for posting the ole girl

I didn't win powerball so no Liberty Superliner or Ultraliner for me

Wow. She's a short one, but sure looks proud hooked to that Michigan special

That's a shame. Sorry to hear that. I had the frame on mine repaired. Its holding up well. There was a Schwind Cruiseliner for sale in Fl next town over from our place. My father followed it and said it looked sharp from a distance. I wondered what he ment, maybe it wasn't so nice up close

Cause I wish he still had the 1 I bought from him.
Uh oh. I wont ask anymore questions.

2,391 LM's were made from 1940-1956. I don't know how many were standard cabs, offset cabs or cabovers.
Did all LM's have that exhaust set up? The one I hauled had the off set cab. It came from Newport, N.H. Jct of 11 and 103. I forget the mans name who owned that garage but he had a lot of interesting stuff

I think you are correct. Brian Schwind out of Wi. Nice trucks. Im not sure about the "eastcoast" grills in the "westcoast" trucks. I understand he wanted them to all look alike but it detracts from them I M O

I just got a text asking how much to haul that truck back to N.H. That will be a nice piece to move, makes the job kinda fun. Hope the man buys it

I hauled a LM but it didn't have the exhaust like that. The thing was heavy and wide as I recall. hung over a 102 trailer
-
Whats the deal with the Cabovers in the background?
-
Damn. That's going to keep me up tonight wondering
-
Ultraliner pictures?

Back in the early 90's I was hauling oak logs out of Vt. 1 of the trips a man from southern Vt had a General log truck like that. It was quite a truck. He told me it was ordered to be a compressor truck for I.R. going to south America. The order got cancelled so GM was trying to sell them. He said it was a great log truck except it was heavy. If I remember it 8V92 8LL rubber block susp. Steel butter fly hood with steel fenders, triple frame
-
That would be a killer piece on a nice ol' single ax tractor.
It would look great behind a B61 integral

I put 5 gallon pails 1/3 full of old antifreeze with bird seed in the pail in each truck. Catching 2 to 4 mice a week.
