According to the information that Dan Bruno had years back when he was building his RD replica (technically became the restoration of one the actual movie RD700's) & researching the movie the Mack Cruiseliner was sold and then totaled in a severe jack-knife crash in California. I still haven't read his book even though it is setting next to me on my desk now to see if that info is in the book.

Iv read the book and that is the story of what happened to the Cruiseliner used in the film.There was also a glider Cruiseliner used in the movie and where it went is in question....That picture I put up is from Black Dog and now the question is...is it the glider kit????

I'm kinda curious the affiliation between Dempsey and those trucks.  

The owner of Dempsey drives them for fun on the weekends. Neither of them serve an actual purpose at the business they are just there for fun

Sorry guys I guess I was wrong about the truck being the same. I guess in my mind it was lol. Didn't mean to spread false Info.

I did think you might be mistaken.Convoy was filmed in'77/78 and Black Dog was filmed in '98.I wonder if anyone has any information on the Cruiseliner used in Black Dog???
