They had a restored model of this at the Carlisle car show last week. You could actually get up close to inspect it. Guy there said they had 3 million in the restoration. It has dual front wheels. Looked pretty neat.

you can buy a shell for restro for only $600,000. John thanks for that site. I stayed up pretty late checking out the wreckers and trucks. I love old trucks and equip.

Saw the Futurliner last year at a car show and they let ya go up into the cab for $3.00. Very Cool. Here's the website that tells the history and restoration of it. http://www.futurliner.com/index.html
