I have to give a huge thanks to BAD DOG. He came through big time by hooking me up with some polished Stainless Stone guards.

Merry Christmas!!!
The interior is back in but is dirty. We will wipe it down once we're comeletely done inside of the truck.
That's new floor mat, new seats, glass, new vent Windows, new Windows tracking assemblies, new weather stripping, seals, new emergency kit, new radio, new speakers, new visits, We replumbed the horns, we placed some of the necessary valves, switches, and replaced the HVAC duct and vents. Most of the vinyl pieces were cleaned up and reused.

Where can you buy a new interior?!?
You can buy some pieces the rest you have made like I did with my restoration.
We have been offered $75k for the green Superliner that I am restoring. That truck is clean, but I wouldn't pay more than $55k for it as is.
In Michigan he will get $65k all day...

Thank you first and foremost. This truck will be going into the landfill just like our other Mack's do. Hard to imagine, yes I know. We hire good drivers, and we wash the trucks everyday.
As far as the flaps, I bought 10 pair all were facing the same way.

Just finishing up the detail work. The interior is all back together.
Adding little odds and ends. Waiting until BAD DOG comes through with the stainless steel stone guards.
Happy to be close to finishing this truck. It's been a labor of love. Frustrating as hell, but would do this everyday if I could.

Well, the double frame looks servicable. The back of the cab doesn't look rotted.
Body is great, frame is good, everything else needs work. LOL!
I just finished a Superliner that was this bad. Nothing that we can't handle with money and elbow grease.

Not too shameful looking.
The previous owner took the engine half apart and left it. She's rougher than she looks.

We just picked up this 1998 CL700 the other day. She's got a 3406, 18spd, Air Ride 500k on the clock. She's rough, but she will look good as new when we get done with her.
I will get more pics when I get the former owner's company name off of the door.

Well first thing this morning I switched the mirrors around.
Spent the rest of the day running parts. My dad made mud flaps, I sheared the polished diamond plate pieces on tops of the flaps. The edges were ground then flaps were installed.
Afterwards we installed the toolbox on the truck. It's brand new just needs a polish.

Here is some of today's progress.
The C Channel rubber for the tank straps came in today, so I was able to mount the driver side tank today. All of the fuel lines were ran and fastened.
