Thanks for posting!!

[Lmackattack]

Interesting..I thought the superliners would have out numbered the RS.RL models but it looks to be the other way......was there a brake down on the RS/RL Production?

[41180]

thanks for posting thats great info . could you tell me how many CL were made ?

[41180]

also i wonder why in 1990 sales of superliners declined so heavily . i can see why they stopped making them . i wonder if the ch series cut into the sales . i think that if they kept making the rw sales would have exploded in the mid 90s when the 427/454 engines and classic long nose conventionals became the big thing

So if I read that right there were 989 RW 613's in 85, hmmm my s/n is 1255. I never can remember which is which so what do the numbers mean? Come on Superdog tell me again.

Wonder where those 1 off RWL762/768 trucks went, be nice to find in a field cheap.

[bbigrig]

I see numbers for Hayward and numbers for Macungie......what about the Superliner II's built in Oakville?

I know there was an RW643 (60 series Detroit assembled in Oakville that never hit the road)

84,

If I remember right, serial #'s started with 1000.If thats true,yours would be the 255th off of the line of RW613's.

[Lmackattack]

Your memory is the third thing to go. This I know because I wear glasses and hearing aides.

for some reason,Hayward used a whole different system when it came to VIN #'s.They did not give each model its own set of numbers.I don't know if they started with 1001 or 0001 but each truck built was the next consectutive number,be it a RL763 or a FS715.

Not enough to keep Renault and Volvo out of the bloodline.

Thanks,.... I was always scratching my head with how their number system worked.
