  • With this cabover, we replaced all lights, sanded and painted, polished aluminum, replaced bumper, quarter fenders, and mudflap hangers. We also replaced brakes and some wheel seals. We are not professionals but we're trying. This old volvo cabover has came a long way from the salvage yard and is still a work in progress.

    Not professional? More professional then a lot of professionals. End of the day it's about what YOU want. Thant said, awesome video and outcome. Truck turned out really nice and looks like you guys made it safe and roadworthy instead of getting the old girl running "enough" to move.

    You have done a super job there. Whatever the name on the grille, be it White, GMC, or Volvo, those Whites are way better trucks than many people realise and are often a good buy.

    My dad had one that looked alot like it,when it was all white, it had a 300 Cummins, 9 sp. Transmission, and 4: 11 rears, top end was like 61mph...he bought it new, it was a solid little money maker for him

    Hey thanks for keeping it stock without the stupid frame rail stretches and the huge sun visors! Back in the day, a stretched wheelbase cabover was unheard of, what with many states having a 55’ overall length restriction, 45’ maximum trailers, and states from Mississippi to Illinois having a 73,280 lb weight limit.

    Awesome job on this truck. Love the layout & colors of the paint. I love seeing cab overs. I grew in the 80's when they were still everywhere. My dad drove quite a few. So seeing 1 get a new lease on life tickled me to death. These companies need to bring them back. So many drivers I've talked to told me they would buy them if you could without the mark up of having an American company ship 1 of there's from another company.
