WOW!!!  Thats incredible.  I have a 80 Cruiseliner also, good for parts. It does run and drive. Has P.S. and air ride cab. Both Cruiseliners have air ride cab. Nice find you have for sure.   Take care of it and enjoy it.

The air ride cab on your Cruiseliners sounds like a nice addition to have.was that a factory option? Ours has coil sprung cab but its not bad to ride in.we have P.S and a/c and western interior.i have wanted a Cruiseliner since i was 14 now 46 years later i got my dream.she will be well looked after....

When we were looking for a cabover we almost bought an Astro but passed because we really wanted a Cruiseliner.the Astro is a hell of a truck too.they look really well.

I think the air ride cab was an option.   Both of mine are owner installed.  I bought one out of a junk yard 5 years ago. They defintely do help the ride but more importantly save the cab.
