well,i know this doesnt apply to you,but were lucky here in nevada,we have commercial antique plates,thier only 12 bucks a year,no limitations,except.no income with it,,,but as far as the insurance we go under motorhome catagory,its only around 150 a year,you might want to check on that...but the luck stops there,lol no mack parts here.lol...i see all these cool old trucks,for sale back there,for like $1000.bucks,,but then $4000 to have them shipped here.bummer dude..good luck bob

wow,,,very cool mark thanks...bob -
well i see nobody,s thrilled about this one.lol thanks for sharing..bob

it sounds like your guage grounding,try running a wire.from back of guage,and touch it to something steel inside dash..also its hard to get the engines to build up any heat,,without a load...sometimes about 140 is all they will hit..good luck...bob

ya,,man.driven quite a few of those freightliners out here,i actually liked them..out here lets face it,you just have to get used to other makes..like almost nobody buys macks here..bob
