vision386 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I agree with Leon as well,i think this is a Kenworth K-500,built with the DAF-XF cab,since KW went out of the cabover market,these are primarily used for heavy-haul and oil field work overseas.............Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

other dog Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I got one for you. I saw this on Hank's Truck Pictures before,had to go back and find it. The caption didn't say what it was but when I saved it the name was "ford ex convoy". Kinda resembles a Sightliner International, but it's nothing i've ever seen before.

David Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 From the era when cabovers were made with conventional cabs. Some of them were built in some handyman's backyard before truck manufactures realized the demand and started building cabovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vision386 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Thats a good one Tom! i have a book about car-carriers,and theres one in there thats looks a lot like this one,except its built on a Dodge cab and chassis. Only thing i can recognize is the ford truck cab in the picture, 48-50?,i'm thinking this may be one of those "homemade" jobs built to haul cars? it sure does look like a sightliner,but to me,it looks to be too "pieced together" to be from the factory.....Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

bobo Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 VERY GOOD! K500 is what it is! DAF cab is also correct, as for the engine they are Paccar(12.7) brand so not sure if it just rebadged DAF. bobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
