The Ford L-series (also named Ford Louisville or, for the 1990s aerodynamic models, Ford Aeromax) is a range of heavy-duty trucks that were assembled and marketed by Ford between 1970 and 1998. Ford had been producing their "Heavy Duty" trucks since 1948 and their "Super Duty" lineup since 1958 marketed by various GVW ratings. Truck weight classifications 1-8 were a new concept brought about by the DOT National Highway Administration. The first dedicated Class 8 truck produced by the company, the L-series range replaced the F-series "Super Duty" and N-series (short conventional derived from the F-series). Produced as both straight trucks and semitractors, the Ford L-series encompassed a wide range of models through the Class 6-8 GVWR ratings in medium-duty, severe-service, and vocational applications. The line would become one of the most popular series of trucks Ford ever produced.[1]
The L series was produced in the Kentucky Truck Plant near Louisville, Kentucky, which gave rise to the nickname "Louisville Line" trucks;[1] as part of a 1996 redesign, part of the model line officially took on the Louisville nameplate.
Following the sale of the Ford heavy-truck line to Freightliner in 1996, the L-series was discontinued by Ford at the end of 1998. Freightliner would concurrently take over production of the Ford L-series, opening its Sterling Trucks subsidiary; the L-series became the Sterling A line, Acterra, and L line, remaining in production until 2009 when Sterling Trucks closed operations.
For 1970, the L-series was introduced in four size ranges, two hood lengths and grille styles, and with single or tandem (denoted by the "T" in the model designation) rear axles. Powertrains included a wide range of gasoline and diesel engines, based on GVWR.
In 1971, Ford introduced a set-back front axle configuration. For the rest of the 1970s, the L-series saw few major changes. In 1976, the LL/LTL-9000 was introduced. Designed as a truck for long-haul drivers, the LTL-9000 was a competitor to the GMC General, Kenworth W900, Mack Super-Liner, and Peterbilt 359. Fitted with a set-forward front axle and a longer hood, this version had more room for larger powertrains. In 1981, Ford gave the LL/LTL-9000 its own grille and headlight styling, including one of the first uses of the Ford Blue Oval in North America.

Although the L-series would see few revisions throughout its production, elements of its design would see use in other Ford vehicles. In 1974, the W-series cabover received a larger grille similar to the chrome version on the L series. For 1978, the F-series/Bronco grille was given a similar egg-crate grille pattern. In the 1980 redesign of the medium-duty F- series, the hexagonal shape of the grille was carried over; it is a theme used in all Super Duty trucks since their 1998 introduction.
In 1984 (as 1985 model year), the rest of the L-series became one of the last North American Fords to adopt the Ford Blue Oval; as with the LTL-9000, it was placed above the grille. In 1988, the L-series changed its grille design from an egg-crate design to that of horizontal chrome bars; the Ford Blue Oval became centered. In addition, rectangular headlights became standard in 1991.
1992 saw the introduction of the set-back front axle version of the LL/LTL-9000, designated the LLS and LTLS-9000.
Thanks for sharing this awesome heavy truck review Chris! I have the Richard Petty Race version with his Dodge Dart included and when I get around to building it, it will be one heck of a project!
I love bonus episodes. Thanks Chris.
You're welcome!
Friday I have a super dooper special one planned, I want it to be a surprise to everyone. :)
I had this model back in the early 70s, It actually came with a 70 Mustang Funny Car, Which I don't understand why they can't bring that back since, Round 2 is tooling all the old kits, they also did a Budweiser version I have that one still unbuilt it was supposed to come with a Budweiser Mustang ll Funny Car, But mine had a Pinto Funny Car in a box, There was several versions with the race cars that came with it , Besides the Richard Petty Dart and a Ford Truck, Richard's father Lee at the time was not happy that AMT could not do a Dodge like they had,A crew cab basically the same as a Snake in the Hot Wheels Crew cabs big dodges which actually one of the Snake Crew cabs used to belong to the Petty family
They need to do a dodge big truck kit l agree
this would be better if if you would do a full build on this one chris
if your not going to build that cool car hauler send her my way its on my buy list just saw it on amazon i also built the the snow plow/dump truck version [mine is a semi-tractor pulling a log trailer local saw mill has one just like it] thanks chris really dig your channel
Nice look of this kit. Thanks for sharing.
It’s a fun kit to build I’ve built one
Checking eBay sales, they all list the color of this truck as black in the description. What's up with that?
Love this one
Great looking kit, would you know if it was released as Richard Pettys race team Hauler? if so where can i get a copy of instructions?. A special needs friend of mine has the kit but lost instructions and has asked me if i could build it for him. I took a look at it but without instructions not much I can do. Can you please help. ✌Canada✌
That should be the same kit.
Check with scalemates website they many times have scans of manuals or email round2models to see if they can email you the .pdf file maybe.
The finished chassis of these look great. I almost hate to put the body components on them!🙂
Buenas tardes como puedo conseguir los modelos gracias
Like it, let's build it now
Hey fellow modeler; I tried the brush on future twice didnt turn out either time what am I doing wrong comes out cloudy or splochy if thats a word. Keep up the videos I watch them all
Thanks for showing this - will be a great model, I am sure.
You know I watch most of your videos I have wanted to comment before when you pointed out the rings for the rims these are 1970s trucks all them old trucks had split ring rims not necessarily kill you split rims but locking ring rims so the tires slid on then the ring locks but you see the split on real trucks so I always thought they were supposed to split intentionally for authenticity I even think I seen the split on box art on a few
I have built this kit and also the snowplough kit. Why is there no bonnet/hood hinge at the front on these kits ??? You have to carefully balance it on the front of the chassis, slightly spoils what are brilliant kits. Great unboxing review Chris, look forward to the build video.
It should not be too difficult to fabricate a hinge to enable the hood to tilt forward. Over-coming slight obstacles and finding solutions is part of the hobby.
@@urbanurchin5930 Yes I am well aware and have fabricated the hinges myself. I just thought that folks should know after buying the kit that they will have manufacture an item that is standard on other kits!!!! 😆😆
I never tire of seeing scale Racemaster Slicks...
I've started trying to record my builds, but my camera is dreadfully old. Takes great pictures, but horrible video. What type of camera do you use?
Probably a GoPro or a camcorder
@@richiesspeedshop82 I was thinking of going the Gopro route.
"CAR NOT INCLUDED " yeah because it's the Mach Won funny car that now goes for extremely stupid money
Until Round 2 reissues it
I had this ever car hauler when I was a kid ...I'm 55 now I build this truck when I was about 14 years old .....so if it re-release where can I find one at and I don't think it comes with a car it was a pretty cool kit
I have a Revell 1:72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk VB, I'm going to do an air racing version of it & where can I find air racing decals for it?
Very cool!
How do i apply my decals?
i was wondering if you had found a replacement product for the pledge future floor polish and could you use minwax polycrylic crystal clear topcoat?
