I think it's a fair price if the truck looks as good as the pictures show, same sight has a 1980 Freightliner cabover with a Detroit for 20 grand more (who in there right mind would buy that). 

How did these ride with the taper leaf suspension? Is it hard to convert them to air ride?

I talked to my boss about it. He's been in the trucking industry for over 55 years or more and has ran these very trucks. The easiest way to convert it to air would be do a cutoff conversion that way you could extend the wheel base alil as well.

I took a quick trip in Kens MH a couple years back while at Gerharts show.  Short, spring ride single axle wasn't hateful at all.  Much nicer then my B model!!
