a few more scans from 1984 pictures found in a box: Mack and tanker are spray painted with Revell silver, the cab was then masked and the dark blue brush-painted (found a similar paint scheme in Lou Kroack's old b/w book "Collecting and building model trucks"). In my imagination back then an owner-operator leased his Cabover to the Ryder company - I didn't want to paint the rig yellow.

Finally, some (digital) pics from 2008:

As of now, after 3 movings, the whole rig is a mess and cries for rebuilding (I have already decals for "Overnite")...

Great looking Cruiseliner!

Seeing them on the road back then seemed a rarity as I can only remember a very few.

Maybe they were more a regional thing???

Thanks, Chris and Johnny !
