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

Uh oh. I wont ask anymore questions.

I'm not saying all his trucks were this way,but this one sure wasn't the cream puff he and his mechanic told us it was. I think they had it tore down and slapped it together in a hurry to move it. Soon as I get someone to fix the windshield frame so I can put the new used windshield in,it will be ok to take to shows,like to sell it but have way to much in it . But it looks good !!

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

Has anyone ever got the story on how or why he kept them all running for so long?

Anyone ever hear of another operator/company doing the same thing?

Fun is what they fine you for!

My name is Bob Buckman sir,. . . and I hate truckers.

Most of the east built ones I've been around it seemed the dash shook apart . I know Mikey was tightening screws daily in the one we have.

Air ride cab will make a BIG difference!

Huh. A Cummins with a 5 speed. Intresting. Alsothe cab looks older like a 75 or 76 with those directionals

Our '78's had those front mounted directional lights.

That truck musta had some serious modifying,the model # shows it should have a 6V92 Detroit
